Metal Sonic (メタルソニック, Metaru Sonikku?) is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. He is a Badnik model created by Doctor Eggman, modeled after Sonic the Hedgehog. Metal Sonic can imitate Sonic's abilities and achieve speeds matching his own.[5] Widely regarded as one of Eggman's greatest creations,[6] Metal has been shown to wipe out his foes in seconds and can even take on many of them at a time.

While usually serving as Eggman's obedient and silent enforcer, Metal Sonic is an intelligent robot with a very dark side. Cold-hearted and ruthless, he is obsessed with proving his superiority to Sonic and eliminating him for good to the point where he has rebelled against Eggman more than once to achieve his goal. However, he always fails in the end, only to later return more powerful than before. To this day, Metal Sonic remains one of Sonic's most dangerous foes.[4]

Taken from the live-stream of Sonic 25th Anniversary Party held at Joypolis. Naoto Ohshima wanted to introduce a new rival for Sonic in Sonic the Hedgehog CD. Kazuyuki Hoshino had a clear idea in his head when he was briefed. One of the keywords for this new rival was "menacing" and his design flowed from a concept. Things did not just have to be perfect, but just have meaning to their design. His glowing red eyes was one of the things decided upon by the team and would give him a deadly, intimidating look. His jet engine in his chest gave him the speed to match, exceed, and rival Sonic's speed, and the glossy reflective finish with CGI trends made Metal Sonic feel like a true nemesis and rival to Sonic and would be advertised on the box artwork along with Sonic.

Appearance Classic Metal Sonic, from Sonic Origins. Classic Metal Sonic, from Sonic Origins. Modern Metal Sonic, from Sonic Art Assets DVD. Modern Metal Sonic, from Sonic Art Assets DVD. Metal Sonic was created in the image of Sonic the Hedgehog and is thus mostly built of blue metal. He has a yellow circular depression in his chest with a black center, mirroring the peach skin on Sonic's chest. His head has metal fins resembling Sonic's quills and a pair of triangular "ears." Metal Sonic has a muzzle, shoulder plates, upper arms, legs, and fingers made out of silvery metal. His palms are black, while the backs of his hands are square yellow plates. His forearms and lower legs are blue metal like his head and torso, and he has red feet with white stripes designed to resemble Sonic's shoes. To simulate the hedgehog's eyes, he has monitors with cameras behind them,[7] giving them a red sclera.

Following the Ifrit incident, Metal Sonic received a slight update in design which made him taller and gave him a more ellipsoid torso. He also gained more detailed hands, a brilliant blue paint job, joints on his arms and legs, and sharper eyeholes.

A Next Risk Chip Series III, with eight basic loading ports in each eye unit, utilizes RGB imaging in the optical area.[3] Frame: Monocoque titanium[3] Color coating: Reinforced blue metal tektite[3] Main engine: 250 cubic centimeters (15 cu in), 4-valve orgone fusion engine[3] Max power: 55ps/6800rpm[3] Max torque: 7.54Kg-m/4000rpm[3] Secondary engine: Tesla power coil that makes power through electromagnetic induction.[3] Max power: 256 kilowatts[3]

Advertisement Personality Despite being built to match Sonic the Hedgehog in all aspects, Metal Sonic is the exact opposite of his organic counterpart in terms of personality.[4] Rather than fun-loving, adventurous, and carefree, Metal Sonic is a cold, dark, aggressive, mysterious and outwardly emotionless machine with a large superiority complex.[4] Early on though, he had a habit of mimicking Sonic's gestures, perhaps in a mocking manner. Notably, Metal Sonic is predominantly mute,[8] typically only making beeping and buzzing noises.

Most of the time, Metal Sonic is Dr. Eggman's docile and completely obedient enforcer. In addition to being programmed to serve Eggman, Metal Sonic carries only one goal in mind: destroy Sonic using abilities superior to his.[9] However, Metal Sonic is also an intelligent and calculative machine thanks to an AI chip given to him by Eggman.[2][9] Efficient and to the point, he is cunning and intelligent, and knows how to manipulate his opponents and take advantage of their weaknesses, but has also displayed somewhat of a sense of honor.[10] Also, in contrast to his emotionless demeanor, he is able to feel emotions[9] and carries a deep capability for vengeance. These traits together have allowed Metal Sonic to fuel his own dark goals of destruction and domination. In battle, Metal Sonic is likewise machine-like in execution and coldly serious. Combined with his muteness, he is a silent killer in every sense of the definition.

While facing an opponent, Metal Sonic is very calculative and systematic, as what one might expect of a mechanical intelligence like himself. Analytic in his approach, he takes into account his strength and weaknesses in order to optimize his performances. However, his computerized mind can also be considered a weakness of his, as it makes him inflexible and unable to anticipate the creativity and unpredictability of organic creatures, which causes his thoughts to be temporarily fragmented in such instances.[9]

Metal Sonic is ticked Metal Sonic's fury after missing a chance to face Sonic, from Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode Metal. Metal Sonic's most dominating trait and raison d'être is his hatred and obsession with defeating Sonic.[11] Having been programmed for the sole purpose of destroying Sonic using abilities superior to his, Metal Sonic is obsessed with the conviction that he is better than Sonic in every way, which he assumes is logical since he possesses the best performance, a tireless body, and plenty of other factors that should make him unbeatable. He has even taken this logic further with the belief that his body was designed in Sonic's likeness because it was the best design to defeat him with. His greatest desire is therefore to overthrow the real Sonic and defeat him once and for all. However, since he has never been able to defeat Sonic, he finds himself caught in a logical paradox, unable to figure out a way to defeat Sonic despite possessing all the means to achieve this.[9]

While he is usually another one of Dr. Eggman's robotic servants, Metal Sonic is also highly sentient for a mechanical being, with his intelligence even being capable of evolving; during the Neo Metal Sonic incident, pushed forward by a strong will and ambition for revenge,[11] his AI chip led to him becoming self-aware, thereby allowing his ego to take control of himself and prompting him to upgrade his body and take control of the Eggman Empire.[2] At this peak of his newly-acquired independence, Metal Sonic showed himself as a ruthless, controlling, arrogant and cunning rogue with no regard for others. His sense of superiority was likewise elevated as he became self-aware, which led him to becoming a megalomaniac and seeing himself as the master of all living things, even transforming himself into a nearly unstoppable dragon-like monster.[12] To this end, he sought to conquer the world and establish a robot kingdom, with him ruling the world as its most supreme being.[13] However, Metal Sonic's superiority complex, combined with his newfound ego, also made him descend into madness, causing him to adopt the twisted belief that he was the real Sonic and that the original Sonic was his "loathsome copy".[14][15] After Metal Sonic was defeated by Team Sonic though, Eggman turned him back into a docile battle mech.[2] Even so, Metal Sonic's uncanny atmosphere and ability to act independently and upset the plans of his creator for his own desires was still there;[11] during the second World Grand Prix, Metal Sonic disguised himself as Team Dark's E-10000B, even without Dr. Eggman's knowledge, and stole the doctor's data to beat Sonic in Extreme Gear racing.[16]

Despite his many defeats and having his beliefs shaken though, Metal Sonic never gives up and will always pursue his goals with relentless determination and take any means necessary to achieve them, no matter how many setbacks he has to go through. Notably, he sees even his defeats as ways to improve himself for his next confrontation, as they provide him with data that he can reanalyze and use to upgrade himself.[9]

Metal Sonic is a silent,[17] ruthless, and cold-hearted killing machine. Incredibly intelligent and self-aware, Metal Sonic at one point evolved to become an independent, rebellious and power-hungry tyrant willing to betray his own creator and seize the Eggman Empire for himself. However, after his defeat he was stripped of his rebellious coding, turning him into a more obedient robot.[18]

IDWMetalDisguise Metal Sonic continues Eggman's reign for his sake, from Sonic the Hedgehog #7. Nowadays, Metal Sonic is completely devoted to Dr. Eggman and his role of serving the Eggman Empire. After receiving Eggman's bio-data in the form of his genius, visions and ambitions, his loyalty towards his creator and purpose proved to be so great that he chose to step up to lead the Eggman Empire and conquer the world in the doctor's stead and likeness after he went missing to ensure that Eggman's reign remained unbroken. Should the world become his, he would then faithfully hand the empire over to Dr. Eggman. He has also proven to be very grounded in his beliefs: even when in a position of absolute power within the Eggman Empire, Metal Sonic insists that he is only a servant to the Eggman Empire, and that the only one fit to rule it is Eggman himself.[18]

Metal Sonic has an unhealthy obsession with his organic template, Sonic the Hedgehog, whom he refers to as his "double" and "loathsome copy".[18] This contradicting belief stems from the fact that Metal Sonic considers himself the "perfected" version of Sonic the Hedgehog, and therefore more worthy of being the "one, true Sonic" than the real Sonic.[18][19] However, he is deeply aware of some of the features Sonic has that he lacks, such as an organic body. For this reason, Metal Sonic tried to come into contact with the Metal Virus to feel anything, but to no effect, which momentarily stunned him.[20]

RoughMetal Metal Sonic threatens Rough, from Sonic the Hedgehog #13. In comparison to Dr. Eggman, Metal Sonic is much more subtle in his tactics. Rather than stepping up to claim responsibility whenever he commits something malicious, Metal Sonic tends to operate in the shadows or in a disguise.[21][22] He is similarly not one to prattle loudly about his master plans before they are carried out.[18] Metal Sonic also demonstrated a very calm and enduringly patient demeanor during his time ruling the Eggman Empire.[18][21] This is mainly due to his own arrogance and belief in his supposedly impending victories, as he consider any hiccups in his plans to be temporary failures.[18] He rarely lets his setbacks get to him and he gets no more than mildly annoyed whenever one of his plans does not go as intended.[18][23][21] That does not mean he does not possess a temper however, as he has been known to have episodes of angry outburst whenever something unexpected happens.
