Description
A Sonic the Hedgehog boss design of sorts. The massive tail is covered in electrically charged discs. It's the kind of boss that you just have to dodge until it kills itself in some stupid way, hence the lack of a 'weak spot'.Related content

I like this! It actually looks like the bottom of the robot may be a weak point, or maybe you have to get the tail to hit the stomach to cause damage... Nice design!

Although the infamous and notorious Dr. Robotnik's latest infernal and ruthless device for exterminating the blue hedgehog that is the agonising, tormentful, grievous and relentlessly harrying thorn undermining his elaborate and vauntedly ambitious schemes for domination thet you have represented here Miss. Padkin could be criticised for possessing too great a parity to the Egg Viper (the final enemy for Sonic's plot in Sonic Adventure I), overall I would believe that there are many commendable elements to the "Egg Tiger" which render it an imposing, unique, and profoundly impressive engine of destruction.
The colour scheme of the vehicle is highly competent, being sufficient to evoke the "Tiger" image without the relevent yellow and black being so endemic as to exaggerate the allusion to absurd absolutism. It is also of a highly dextrous, 'athletic', acrobatic structure, and the ergonomics of the "Egg Tiger", to my appreciation, emphasise a phenomenal weapon of explosive and catastrophic might that certainly would be a thrilling inclusion in any Sonic title - I can quite envisage the "Egg Tiger", when active, transfiguring itself into some form of wild, raucous, lunatic, psychotic and demented flail, with its tail - pulsating with eldritch electrical flame - whipping, trashing, scything and convulsing about madly, tearing appalling gouges through floors as it pursues its target in an arc of lethal murder or streaking bloody swathes through crowds of hapless pedestrians, only briefly pausing to thrust itself forward as a wickedly-apiculated lance to skewer any armour presented against it. All this transpires whilst the 'skull' hurls itself in brutal, crushing assaults, cannoning into every obstacle conceivable as a whirling sphere of devastation and demolishing them through the sheer force of its incredible speed that would astound even Sonic. Needless to say, it would require some highly responsive thumbs and a joypad constructed of titanium to evade and elude such a cataclysmic and bestial machine, and the horrendous amount of collateral damage it would inflict would stun any observer with its graphical extravagance!
I also enjoy how you've included an escape vector for the pilot - when this latest contraption is destroyed (again), Dr. Robotnik's Egg-o-matic can be launched through the base of the 'skull' and the doctor can flee from the wreckage of the Tiger Frame, the tail (quite literally!) between his legs.
An excellent concept, Miss. Padkin! I hope to see more of your Robotnik designs in the future!

This is very cool. Quite an original design and it would fit right into the games. Great job.

wow! ^_^ This looks awesome colored... I think I saw this before, uncolored, though.. o.O; Looks very familiar.....
But, hell yeah! That's really cool! Sorta like Sonic 3, when Eggman ends up killing himself more times than enough. Particularly in Lava Reef. Haha... stupid idiot... err.. wait. LOL you had lots of fun with the jell type discs. XD

Probably would end up whipping his tail into himself, like that capsule boss from Sonic & Knuckles (Sky Battery Zone, I think) that you have to trick into smacking himself in the head, huh?
Very excellent design, I must say indeed.

That would be a freakin' cool boss design. Nice job working with a tiger.

WOw, I can see the tiger reference. I love the sleek design you put for it and the electric bolt whip tail thing, which would be great for long distance. Great!

You (and Koji) probably saw the unfinished version I posted on the CulT a while back.

Now I'd love to see that in a game..... *sigh*
That kind of boss is so much fun

Lack of weak spot and it has to kill itself, huh? I'm thinking of it perhaps as a final boss...maybe like Monster Ock
(and I don't know if you've played Spider-Man for the PS1). All you do is run away from him as fast as possible while the area's pretty much blowing up on itself. Once you get to the end of the level, the place explodes and defeats Ock for you.
