Figure Fighter

Figure Fighter (マッスル人形 Massuru Ningyou, "Muscle Doll") is the seventh minigame and it's a story variant of Figure Fighter from Rhythm Heaven Fever that appears in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. In this game, the player controls the Muscle Doll, as he punches a punching bag in a private training room where he first trains himself of becoming the worldwide champion.

A sequel later appears in Machine Tower under the title Figure Fighter 2.

Gameplay
The player must press the button at the same time the toy hits the punching bag. This will cause the toy's muscles to buff up, making him strike the punching bag much more forcefully. Signals are given throughout the song by an announcer to determine when to inflate the doll.

There are two different signals the announcer will give out:


 * "Jab!": The doll will punch once after the announcer finishes, with some delay.
 * "One, two!" The doll will punch twice after the announcer finishes, with a break between the two punches. The screen will darken with the announcer's cue to help the player time it right.

Each cue goes at the same speed, but there are different intervals and mixes of them. Note that the fast "Onetwo!" cue and "Gogogo!" cue do not appear in this variant.

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 softly hits the punching bag without pumped up arms.
