Dr. Robotnik has been churning out cool ass looking mecha and robots for decades now, and I think it's about time he gets the notice he deserves.
What's your favorite Dr. Robotnik creation, /m/?
Mine is the Eggrobo, personally.

CANNOT BE BEATEN
The E-2000 is pretty sick
i might be biased because Sonic 2 was my first but this was my favorite moment of Generations
>>14910566
I'd second that, but I don't have a true favorite.
Pretty much every single mini boss in Sonic 3&K I love. Along with the kickass miniboss themes in both games, they all feel very clumsy and strange whilst still seeming distinctly mechanical.
I also really like Blastoid and Blaster, the stag-beetle like robots from Hydrocity and Flying Battery, respectively.
You may be capable of stating other answers, but they are incorrect.
BEHOLD MY FLOATING MASTERPIECE! THE EGG CARRIAAH!

The Swatbots were always cool
You motherfuckers are ALL wrong. Gaze upon the apex of mechanical engineering!
Oh shit, I was just thinking about this the other day. You're alright with me, OP.

These three are my go-to examples for favourite Eggman creations. But I also have a soft spot for Mecha Sonic from S3&K. It's a little spindly, but there's something in how distinctly mechanical it looks that makes me love it. Also it was a pretty rad final boss for Knux's route.
As for stuff he pilots, Big Arm is a personal favourite. It's a simple design, but makes for a great boss fight.
>>14910655
Well these claws ain't just for attract'in mates!
>>14910574
Metal Sonic is one of my favorite designs in mecha history, honestly. He's so damn sleek but so simple and his hinged joints make him really believable compared to other mecha.
The final boss from Sonic 3.

Egg Wyvern
So damn sexy.
Egg Dragoon has an amazing theme.
Death Egg Robot has an amazing theme
>>14911102
Big Arm is cool as hell and it sucks that it isn't in Sonic 3 and Knuckles
MS-06S Emperor (Eggman Custom)
As much as I love S3&K Mecha Sonic, this guy takes the cake
>>14910566
>Robotnik
Eggman
Remember that time he built an entire army of android copies of Shadow including one giant one just so he could troll Shadow into thinking he was a robot?
They never even did anything.
What a dumb game.
>>14910574
>fast
>sharp
>does not speak
metal sonic is the best sonic character by default
>>14911835
And its so obvious Shadow was the real one cause he had a higher poly count than the androids
>>14910566
Surprised this wasn't here earlier
>>14910574
I love how he's basically a propeller/engine with some little flimsy limbs attatched. You can' t design something faster than that.
>>14911551
but Robotnik is his real name. Eggman is just a stupid nickname everyone gave him.

>Although the character was designed as Dr. Eggman in Japan since the original Sonic the Hedgehog, he was first known as Dr. Robotnik in Western countries.
>>14911835
>they never even did anything
they're enemies in Lava Shelter, Iron Jungle, and various boss fights in Shadow's game.
What was the last game Omega was in?
>>14912293
Sonic Runners, or 06.
Basically every character but Sonic and Tails has been erased from the franchise
>>14912355
Knuckles is in Mania though.
>in before the next-gen game's plot turns out about the Robotniks doing just that to said characters
Giving it to Mecha. That monoeye and his general level of imposition are top notch.
>>14912371
Sonic 06 was the last game with a playable character who wasn't Sonic, which means Knuckles hasn't shown up for like, ten years. Mania is the first game where he's actually playable again.
Amy shows up in side material like Boom too, but everything from between 1999 and 2006 is gone for good.
Don't forget about G.U.N. They have cool stuff too.

This thing is my favourite.

There's still the comic appearances, but even then I'm having doubts about Archie's stability.
>>14912572
he is a maker of crybaby robots
nothing more
>>14910574
I always enjoyed momentum shenanigans by hitting a speed boost with the Black Shield up in SA2B's multiplayer.
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY

All toasters toast toast!

Why not both?

>Metool based Chao
How is this a thing I'm just hearing about? This is amazing.
Helpers remind me that I'm also really fond of the two in pic related. They don't really do anything cool, but their back and forth with Eggman is generally entertaining and I really dig the simplicity of their designs.
>>14912572
Why not both? http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/137068I have no shame.
>>14915346
That was Sigma you dolt.
This version of metal sonic is pretty badass
>>14912572
Dr Eggman doesn't prostrate when he loses.
I always hated the name change from Robotnik to Eggman. Why the fuck would he adopt the mocking nickname of his most hated enemy?

Please, gentlemen, please, we must realise who the real best genius is.
>has an army of incredibly loyal subjects (even though most are incredibly dumb
>whenever he gets to do a master plan, he gets close to winning before the heroes stop him
>has psychic powers and can take powerful gadgets to the face
>is a sharp dresser
>>14915481
So much that he got to be the villain in the crossover fan series Super Mario Bros. Z.
The EGG Wyvern and the hovercraft both looked too cool. Too bad they were stuck in a shit game.
>>14911835
I love the Shadow game because of how over the top edgy it tries to be, it's absurd. It's practically comedic with how hard it tries to paint Shadow as a Die Hard-esque badass, only to have multiple endings where he up and decides he's a robot in the most moronic of decisions and endings ever.
It's hilariously retarded.
>>14914438
Yeah Orbot and Cubot are great
