The Chibi Project: Side Projects: Megaman vs a Blender

Megaman vs a Blender

Subject: Megaman Series: Megaman NT Test Date: April 29, 2005 Materials: Megaman action figure Drink/smoothie/shake blender WE ARE PROFESSIONALS: DO NOT TRY THIS TEST AT HOME!

Preparations: The Chibi Project's live experiments have become a welcome tradition at Anime Boston. We knew it would be hard to top the test we conducted on Pikachu at Anime Boston 2004, but we had an obligation to our fans to try. For this experiment, we decided to take on Megaman.
Phase One: The blender is unusual in that the blades are on the cap. Everything gets turned upside-down when you put it on the blender. When we put Megaman in the water upside-down, he was standing right-side-up when placed on the blender. Note: The remains of Chibi Moon, the Beyblade Beystadium, Shinji Ikari, and Great Saiyaman are visible in the photo.
The blender has three speed settings: low, high, and off. We started at the high setting.
As soon as the blender was turned on, Megaman began to spin. Unfortunately, one of his feet got jammed before making one revolution and he was stuck. The blender was no longer spinning.
The blender was rocked back and forth quickly to attempt to dislodge Megaman from the blades. At this point, the blender was only making a buzzing noise. Changing the speed settings between low and high did not dislodge Megaman.
In a further attempt to dislodge Megaman, the entire blender assembly was shaken. He remained fixed in place.
Megaman was removed from the blender and re-inserted so that his head would face the blades. Unfortunately, the blender no longer spun and gave off a burning smell. The motor had been burned out.
Test Complete: This is the first time a Chibi Project has failed. Megaman was removed from the blender in one piece.
Damage Assessment: Megaman suffered scratches to his ankles. The rest of Megaman escaped unharmed. Conclusion: Megaman is very tough and can withstand the sharp blades of a blender. Additional experimentation on Megaman is necessary. Look for video from this experiment at The Chibi Project's convention appearances and in an upcoming podcast episode.
