Only in the past year did I beat Heat Man's stage using the blocks without item 2. I just wanted to make sure I could. Don't worry ABF, it's not cheating. In fact, Roll suggests it to you in the remake.
Anyway, Air Man was always easy for me. I just smacked him up and down with the P gun and TOOK the hits except on the formations that are easy to jump (the shots usually go under the tornados). On hard mode, I'm left with only a little health, but it's still an easy win.
Wood Man's leaf shield is easy enough to jump over. Now, in MM3 it's a bit tougher to get over because Doc Robot stands taller. Just make sure to stand a little to the right when the leaves come down. Hard mode he's actually a challenge, but if you have the atomic fire, no biggy.
And yeah, I supposed rapidly deploying the leaf shield when you CAN get near Air Man would work, but generally I just stick with what works, and the p shooter works :D.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
