The Fang Robo[note 1] is a mech that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a giant combat robot piloted by Fang during the Northstar Islands incident. It was used by Fang during his final battle against Trip the Sungazer.

Description[]

Apperance[]

The Fang Robo is much bigger than the likes of Sonic or Trip, towering over them at a height similar to Doctor Eggman's Big Egg in Sonic Superstars. It is modeled after Fang's image and thus has a design inspired of his own physical characteristics. In addition to its head, massive body, hat, belt, and opening chest cockpit, the Fang Robo has large spiked fists with openings at the front. On occasion, the red eyes of the machine will flash a bright red. In the main story mode, this robot is left unpainted and gray. The design is finished by the end of Trip's Story mode, where it sports a color scheme based on Fang's appearance. The mech's design seems to be based on the L-Gaim Mk-2 from the 1984 mecha anime television series Heavy Metal L-Gaim, with the chest cockpit opening up, and uses the Marvelous Queen like a Flossor from L-Gaim.

Powers and abilities[]

Being designed for combat, the Fang Robo is incredibly durable, being able to withstand a number of hits from the player before going down. It also displays a great amount of strength, able to slam its fists down to destroy much of the platform the player is standing on. The Fang Robo is capable of both launching many bouncing bombs out of its shoulder areas and launching waves of Anton Badniks out of its mouth. The Fang Robo also has the ability to create laser nets that mimic a spider's web to ensnare opponents. Finishing off its weaponry are the giant corks that can be fired out of the openings in its hands (resembling Fang's own popgun). These corks are strong, capable of sending Trip flying away in a single hit. The Fang Robo also has the ability to fly and hover above the ground with rockets in its boots.

Overview[]

The Fang Robo appears in Sonic Superstars. An unpainted version is seen in the main story mode after Fang's boss fight in Golden Capital Zone where Trip, via her Dragon Form, destroys it. The Fang Robo doesn't appear again until the end of Trip's story mode where it serves as the second phase of the final fight against Fang.
