The Mecha Golem[1] is an object that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is an incomplete version of the Mecha Golem (5-gou) which was stationed in Volcanic Tunnel until it was destroyed by Tails.
Description[]
Appearance[]
Although reffered to as a mech, the Mecha Golem resembles more that of a turret, having its green body attached to the floor by a tube. The Mecha Golem also has space in its center for a Pilot Combatant to sit, in addition to having a slit for the pilot to see through. The Mecha Golem also has a gray pointed "nose", two Vulcan Guns on the sides of its body, and a line of cannons running across its back.
Battle[]
Continuing in their tradition of stationing powerful combat robots at the bottom of isolated cave systems, the Battle Kukku Empire has the Mecha Golem in place in Volcanic Tunnel - ostensibly the second level, but Tails needs the Large Bomb to access it.
Boss guide[]
More like a static gun emplacement, this Mecha Golem simply sits in one position, strafing the area with Vulcan cannon bullets. The player must fly over its head (or climb on top of its head) and drop more Large Bombs on top of it. The player can take the long route to the boss chamber which brings Tails out behind the robot. He is then able to lob Remote Bomb after Remote Bomb through a tiny fissure and thus take out the boss in complete safety.
As before, after enough damage has been done, the mech's faceplate blows off to reveals a Pilot Combatant. Once destroyed, this machine's wreckage will remain forever. The player then flies through the now-open upper passage to pick up the Extra Armor upgrade for the Sea Fox.
Variants[]
Mecha Golem (5-gou)[]
The Mecha Golem (5-gou) is a fully operational version of the Mecha Golem with a deadly extendable arm. Unlike the Mecha Golem, the Mecha Golem (5-gou) is not stationary, and can move around, albeit slowly.
Trivia[]
- Despite supposedly being an inferior version of the Mecha Golem (5-gou), the Mecha Golem is fought after the Mecha Golem (5-gou) in Tails Adventure.
