Figure Fighter 3

"This is it! The final bout for tiny, inflatable glory! Will you retire in triumph or disgrace? (No practice.)"

- Figure Fighter 3 Description Figure Fighter 3 (マッスル人形チャンピオン Massuru Ningyou Chanpion, "Muscle Doll Champion") is the 78th minigame and it's a triquel to Figure Fighter 2 that appears in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. It is identical to Figure Fighter 2 from Rhythm Heaven Fever. Finally, the Muscle Doll has become a worldwide champion, but he must defense himself during his championship battle. How much can the champ handle the distance?

Appearance/Gameplay Changes
The only changes to the game's appearance are recolored things. The Muscle Doll himself is now tan with red clothes, the punching bag is blue, and the background is mostly tan/yellow. The base gameplay is the same, as the original; the player needs to puff up the doll as he punches to hit the bag, following the announcer's cues. However, the first part of the game has several cues for the player to make, while the screen is still black and partially darkened. This requires the player to not get caught off guard, and hit the beats without visuals. The game's cues are mostly consecutive offbeat as well.

Button Mode

 * A: Press button

Simple Tap Mode

 * Tap: Press button

Timing Notes

 * Hit: The button pumps him up to be more muscular simultaneously with his jab.
 * Barely: The figure's pumping is delayed with the sound of released air. A barely counts as a miss.
 * Miss: The figure hits the punching bag without pumped up arms.

Rating Notes

 * Try Again: "What went wrong out there?"
 * OK: "Keep your guard up."
 * Superb: "You defended your title, champ!"

Skill Star
When the announcer says the fast "And one two!" after finishing "Go, go, go!" punch perfectly the second time to collect the star.
