Well yeah, first of all I've been wondering... Is that robotic arm Joe's arm replaced or just armor?  ; I'd think if it were a piece of armor it'd be taken off when he was resting in the hotel... I wonder what it does exactly too. Does it scoop up snowballs and throw them at random snow bunnies? XD Is it like a buster? Or something? WHEE. |

I think his arm was replaced...maybe that happened by his arm getting frostbite on Forbidden Island...cause you kinda hafta get your arm...erhm...removed if you get frostbite...  ^^; I think it's just there to work like a normal arm, even though it's not...my grandpa has a fake knee.O.o I hope it doesn't throw snowballs at bunnies. |

I also think it is a replacement and maybe it is a buster. |

Well, Joe is in no shape to search ruins. That's what the junk store man says when he runs off to find that refractor. If you haven't figured it out, he's Banner, who is Roll's father.
The best reason for that arm is that when he and Matilda explored the Forbidden Island, it either got frost-bitten or hurt by a reaverbot. It was probably rendered useless somehow, so he had to get it replaced. As you can see, it's not a perfect fit.

That pic used to be the pic of the moment on my site... oh some many moments ago. I just think Joe uses it for digging, I mean, I don't think he would want a giant chunk of metal for an arm for no reason.

WHEE. when he was in Forbbiden island maybe he really get hurt and his Digger suite has been really damaged? |

Who makes those really good pics? Wish I was that good at drawing and coloring. That giant reaverbot reminds me when you get the name from that meteor guy from MM8. Why do all the diggers wear robotic armor anyway? They look like they're from Megaman X in armor like that. I think that his arm was replaced by that robot arm too. |

I'm pretty sure an official Capcom artist did that, but it's not an official piece of art. What I mean is, Joe probably couldn't really do that. Also, not all diggers wear armor. Almost none of the diggers you meet in Misadventures of Tron Bonne do, except for maybe a helmet. |

Russell wore armor... and a cape. Right? I can't really remember, it's been awhile since I played TMOTB.
I think robotic armor is an optional thing for diggers that clearly gives them an advantage... I mean, I doubt MegaMan would ever willingly go into a ruin with only his kitchen apren.

Yes he did, but the others didn't. Probably only those who can afford it wear it.
I don't see how you could get around WITHOUT armor. What, are you going to pickaxe a Reaverbot to death? Actually... *ponders*

Actually... *ponders* I'd rather wear... MAGNETIC ARMOR! >=D Just walk near a reaverbot and watch them do a seizure dance! But would a magnet give Trigger seizures? (Anything to make him monkey dance like Data.) |

some might be as advanced as megaman (since we find out in MM2 that the armor isnt "permanent")
and some just go in there with a shovel and hope they dont get shot. (in MM1 when u have to save the junk shop owner, he's just sitting on a high cliff with absolutely no way of defense)
either ur really lucky, or really desperate to try and do that "imagines Megaman going against Juno with a slingshot"
