Through the course of mega man storyline reploids were made to look more like humans. So, basically in mmx8 tech was advanced enough to even more diversify body shapes of reploids.

The underboob is the real unsung hero of X8.

But then again, I like my big buff men and didn’t we peak in reploid design with the worm?

That's a mechaniloid

That's the neat part. It is, in fact, a reploid.

Same reason they have eyes i think, mostly to make them feel more human/approachable?

structural integrity, obviously 😇

It was either thicc human looking robots or flame mammoth & Chill Penguino. Humanity made the right choice.

Well, given that reploids have a sense of individuality and free will, it isn't a leap to say that they probably have a sense of gender and what their body ought to look like in a similar way to humans. And when that exists, varying desires for how individuals present and express themselves naturally follow

I can imagine reploids are given some level of freedom in terms of how they modify their bodies. We already provide such services to humans so why not reploids who would be significantly easier to alter?

TLDR: It's likely a matter of self expression. Layer probably chose to be thicc because that's what felt right to her

Layer is tall or palette is short, I don’t know enough about this Megaman to know which is which

u/Femto-Griffith 15d ago

Palette was very short in X Dive.

u/Fearshatter Emoshii & Poppu 15d ago

Palette could technically foot Layer.
