Bamboo Pandamonium (also known as Bamboo Pandemonium in the Japanese version) is one of the eight Maverick bosses and a minor antagonist Mega Man X8. He makes his lair in the Booster Forest. His weapon is the Green Spinner, which has him launch green missiles from the cannons on his arms. X gains this weapon when Bamboo meets his defeat. Optic Sunfloward is weak to this weapon.
Bamboo Pandamonium was voiced by Sazame Manda in Japanese and Jonathan Love in English.
Bamboo Pandamonium was a massive Reploid, easily standing twice as tall as the Maverick Hunters. His body was mostly white and black in color, similar to a panda, and he had the head of a panda as well, as the resemblance was much closer than other animal-based Reploids, even possessing black eyes. The tubes and canisters on his back were green, meant to resemble bamboo shoots. His fingers were composed of large claws, which he could extend and retract into his forearms at will.
Personality
Despite his nature as a Maverick, Bamboo Pandamonium was level-headed and thoughtful. He was aware that he had been labelled Maverick, but saw it as more of a pity and a hindrance than anything. He believed the world wants to be destroyed, as its history has been spent making destructive things like missiles and Reploids, and he liked Sigma's plan to create a new world.
Biography
Bamboo Pandamonium was a new-generation Reploid who was in charge of a rocket facility in the Booster Forest. When the facility got deactivated, Bamboo Pandamonium decided to stay there, eventually turning Maverick after realizing how most of history was spent on creating destructive things. He joins Sigma's rebellion, believing the world itself wants to be destroyed due to being a New Generation Reploid.
Bamboo Pandamonium fights by shooting rockets and grenades from his forearms, also summoning bamboo drills from the ground which the boss promptly smashes while running forward. (X and hisallies can use them to wall-jump to avoid Bamboo's charge.) If the player gets too close, he will throw a barrage of punches which cause massive damage. When low on health, he will charge and throw a powerful lunge which can easily kill the player automatically and is very tough to dodge, requiring precise timing to be avoided. His weakness is the Melt Creeper.

Trivia
Game files reveal that Bamboo Pandamonium was going to open his eyes at some point.
Bamboo Pandamonium's surname comes from "pandemonium" (chaos, and the name of the capital of Hell) and "panda" (the animal that serves as his basis).
There is a chance that Bamboo blubbers rather than saying, "It's all over!" during his overdrive attack.
Bamboo Pandamonium is the only boss from Mega Man X8 to lack hands, and thus the third on-fortress Maverick in the Mega Man X series to lack hands, the first two being Launcher Octopuld from the first game and Scissors Shrimper from the third.
