Costumes

For user-made costumes that can be used after earning 100 Noble Nickels, see Custom Costumes.

Costumes are unlockables in the Make a Good Mega Man Level series that change Mega Man's appearance. Aside from a few exceptions, they are purely cosmetic and offer no gameplay advantages.

Make a Good Mega Man Level

Only a single costume can be found in the original Make a Good Mega Man Level game—the Proto Man costume, purchasable from Eddie's shop from the beginning for a paltry 50 bolts.

Make a Good Mega Man Level 2

Costumes not only return from the first game, but are greatly expanded upon. Roll now runs a costume shop located between Tier 4 and Tier 5, where the player can go at any time to purchase a costume or equip one they have already purchased. Some skins cannot use the alternate weapon set (Due to not having the necessary sprites).

If Mega Man wears a costume that matches the identity of an NPC, that NPC will disappear while wearing that costume. For example, equipping Hornet Man's costume will make Hornet Man disappear from Tier 3. The exceptions to this are Met and Dr Light, who still appear in Tier 10 and the lab, respectively. Relatedly, wearing any costume other than Mega Man (with or without helmet) causes Mega Man to appear near the entrance to Tier 3. The exception to this is Roll, in which case Rock will run the costume shop in her absence.

Many costumes provide unique dialogue with certain NPCs. A good amount of them change the sprites for utilities, such as Rush Coil, Rush Jet, and Sakugarne. They still function identically, however.
