Ruinsman (ルインズマン Ruinzuman?) is an ancient Reploid enemy from Mega Man X7 that appears in Soldier Stonekong's Deep Forest stage. Ruinsmen are usually encountered standing still or idly wandering around. As they only attack when provoked, some can be avoided entirely. When attacked, they counter by throwing boulders or by causing a surge of rocks to erupt underneath the player. The Deep Forest stage also contains a giant Ruinsman; however, its HP is the same as its smaller counterparts. Axl can temporarily copy them with A-Trans, granting him the ability to walk on spikes while transformed.
