Egg Hammer

The Egg Hammer (エッグハンマー) is a reoccurring enemy in the Sonic the Hedgehog series which first appeared in Sonic Heroes. It is a large robot model created by Dr. Eggman. While not common, these robots are some of the toughest enemies that can be encountered in their respective games.

Appearance
On the console games, the Egg Hammers are basically an enlarged and more heavily armed version of the Egg Pawn. They are at least three times bigger than a regular Egg Pawn, possesses a grey, and silver color scheme, and wield a large hammer with an identical color scheme.

Sonic Heroes
The Egg Hammers first appeared in Sonic Heroes, where they can be encountered in Lost Jungle, Mystic Mansion and Final Fortress. They carry large hammers that they use to attack the player. They are immune to most attacks from formations other than Power formation, but can be temporarily stunned by Thunder Shoot. The Egg Hammers will always drop one Power Core when destroyed.

The Egg Hammers attack either by slaming their hammer down or swinging their hammers and upper torsos in a few 360° circles. If the Egg Hammer chooses to swing their hammer, however, they will start to lose their balance once they are done swinging. At this point, the player can topple the Egg Hammer by attacking them, thus leaving them vulnerable to the player's attacks for a few moments.
