The Egg Mobile[1] (エッグモービル Eggu Mōbiru?), alternatively spelled as the Eggmobile,[2] is a vehicle that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a hovercraft created and very frequently piloted by Doctor Eggman as a personal means of transportation. The Egg Mobile is known for its versatility, being capable of travelling across all types of terrain and being armed with several weapons of its own. Its most enduring feature is its compatibility with Eggman's various vehicles and creations and serves as well as an escape pod when they are inevitably defeated by Sonic and his allies.

Description[edit | edit source]

Appearance[edit | edit source]

There are various versions of the Egg Mobile, as its design varies from incident to incident. Universally, it is a one-man, hovering craft with a spherical shape. The different versions of the vehicle are as follows:

  • The Egg Mobile that first appeared during the South Island incident is a gray pod, with its lower part being completely black. It has two yellow, mechanical feet for landing and a single headlight on the front. Each side of the Egg Mobile has air seals, horizontal black and yellow stripes. Behind it is a propeller with a yellow metal shield on top. Inside, it has a low windshield, a blue seat, and a large control panel. Early on, the Egg Mobile had two small wings on the sides; these were changed with exhaust pipes over time.
  • The Egg Mobile that debuted during the West Side Island incident looks sleeker and more mechanical compared to the previous version. Its front is circular, with a yellow windshield. Each side of the hovercraft has horizontal black and yellow hazard stripes, oblique tail pipes that curve in the upper horizontal direction, and small wings that has air seals under them and small motors behind them. Its back has a number plate reading "EGG".[3] The cockpit has a steering wheel and a brown driving seat, while the bottom is black like before. In addition, the vehicle has retractable helicopter blades, but those are rarely used.
  • The incarnation of the Egg Mobile that appeared during the Little Planet incident is lower and thinner at the bottom, but much wider. At the front, it has a gray Eggman decal. It has four propulsion jets on it, one on its back and the other three on its underside, which activate and deactivate depending on the direction it is flying.
  • The variation of the Egg Mobile that appeared during the Angel Island incident is smaller and more simplistic than earlier designs. This time around, it does not have wings but instead two tail pipes. Its windshield is removed (but sometimes has a glass dome instead), and its seat is now yellow and is supported by a pole behind it.
  • The version of the Egg Mobile that debuted during the Chaos incident has an oval shape, and is much wider than previous incarnations. The front is gray in the middle, with a small, blue windshield, and a light blue/yellow headlight below. Each of the sides is light gray, with an orange line running through the middle, as well as black and yellow hazard stripes with handles. The cockpit is shown to have what appears to be a black touchscreen as a control panel. This Egg Mobile also has a blue seat, with its back being roughly the same shape but slightly larger. On the back, the motor is visible, and there are three propellers; two are on the sides and a slightly larger one is on the middle. As usual, the bottom of the craft is a black hemisphere.
  • The version of the Egg Mobile that first appeared during the X-Zone incident is a rather small aircraft with a small windshield and two red and gray colored rocket engines on each side of its back. When this Egg Mobile turns around, it is shown to have small pipes with blue fire coming out on the its downside.
  • The Egg Mobile that debuted during the Emerl incident is a round hovercraft that is mostly colored red, but still has its usual, black hemisphere at the bottom and the yellow headlight and windshield at the front. Each side has a small cannon.
  • The variation of the Egg Mobile that first appeared during the Neo Metal Sonic incident is a gray hovercraft that is somewhat shaped like a flying saucer. This version still has its usual windshield and yellow headlight, the latter of which is in between two small, orangish lights. On the back, the Egg Mobile features black and yellow hazard stripes. The main difference with other incarnations is that this variation no longer flies via propellers, but instead has some kind of propulsion system located at its bottom where ring-shaped beams are constantly being dissipated from it.
  • During the Solaris incident, the Egg Mobile featured a design completely different from all its other known appearances. Here, it was a completely gray/silver vehicle that was shaped as a long oval and was big enough to walk at least 20–30 feet on.
  • The Egg Mobile that first appeared during the Dark Gaia incident is, once again, a gray pod that features the traditional black and yellow hazard stripes on the sides and two back engines with an extra one set on the black hemispherical underside that can fold out. The front of the craft has large a bolt on both the center's sides and two different sized glass lamps along the center. It also has a windshield and a retractable glass dome. Notably, the Egg Mobile is also given a detailed interior, featuring a plush seat for Eggman to sit on while piloting it and two handles for piloting it.
  • During the Death Egg mk.II incident, the Egg Mobile had more of a white color scheme, with longer wings on the sides and its hemispherical underside functioning as a hatch. It also had a heavier pilot seat on the cockpit.

Features and abilities[edit | edit source]

The Egg Mobile is capable of flight, and is known for its speed. Even when damaged, it can instantaneously accelerate at impressive speeds that rival Sonic's own, even while carrying heavy objects such as the Master Emerald.[4] Also, since the Egg Mobile is an aircraft, it is a waterborne vehicle, and possesses excellent drift.[5]

Perhaps the Egg Mobile's most notable feature is that it is designed to be fitted with a seemingly endless amount of mechs, serving as the cockpit for these. By modifying its attachments, it can travel across water, air, land, and even underground.[6] Also, when its attached mechas are destroyed, the Egg Mobile and its pilot will emerge relatively unscathed from the wreckage.

The Egg Mobile also possesses equipment of its own, though it has been inconsistently depicted through time; most commonly though, it has been shown weaponed with a claw. Other features it has had include sleeping gas and a small mind control cannon. For combat, it is also equipped with electrical cords,[7] homing missiles, and bombs.[8] The Egg Mobile is additionally resistant to powerful blows from the likes of Knuckles and Sonic the Werehog. If damaged enough, it can also activate a self-destruct mechanism that will make it ricochet around while exploding.[8] If forcibly grounded, the Egg Mobile also has an emergency reboot lever that requires repeated pulling out and pushing in to restart power.[9]

The Egg Mobile's weapon attachments, from Sonic the Hedgehog #23.

In addition of serving as a means of transport, the Egg Mobile is equipped with multiple weapon accessories that allow it to be used as a means of combat, such as wrecking balls, saws and cannons.[10] The Egg Mobile also has the ability to easily attach itself to Eggman's various mechs. becoming a cockpit for these machines from where Eggman controls them. Plus, if these machines are defeated, the Egg Mobile then serves as an escape pod, allowing the pilot to eject mostly unharmed from the larger machine.[11][12]

Despite being quite resistant to explosions,[11] it is not very solid from a structural point of view, since a single strong impact, such as a Spin Attack, is capable of destroying it.[10]

Game appearances[edit | edit source]

Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)[edit | edit source]

File:Sonic 1 Egg Mobile.png

In the 16-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog (1991), and its various ports and remasters, the Egg Mobile, also carrying names like the Egg-O-Matic[13] and the Robot-meister[14] in contemporaneous sources, is the hovercraft used by Dr. Eggman. Its add-ons are simply minor weapons on an otherwise unequipped craft. It is featured in the following levels:

The Egg Mobile also makes an appearance at the end of Dr. Eggman's final confrontation in Final Zone. The doctor attempts to use it as he escapes quickly after the player defeats him in the Egg Crusher. During this, they can Spin Jump to damage the Egg Mobile, leading to the villain barely flying away in his own smoke. However, doing this is entirely optional and does not affect the rest of the game events that follow.

File:GHZ-Boss-8-Bit.png

In the 8-bit version of the game, the Egg Mobile reprises its role from the 16-bit version, and looks virtually the same. It appears in most boss fights, featuring a variety of simple add-ons that vary depending on the battle. The Egg Mobile is featured below:

At the end of game, after Eggman is defeated in Sky Base Zone, he will escape by teleporting to Green Hill, where he will be piloting the Egg Mobile, only to get struck down by a spinning Sonic, who teleports above his head, causing the damaged hovercraft to slowly fall down and crash with the doctor in it.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2[edit | edit source]

8-bit[edit | edit source]

File:But seriously, why didn't let him fall to the death.png
The Egg Mobile, from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit).

The Egg Mobile appears briefly in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit) as it is based on the original Egg Mobile from the first game. It first appears at the intro of the game, where Eggman kidnaps Tails with a yellow grabber attachment (which would later make infrequent appearances in the series).

It later appears at Act 3 of Under Ground Zone, where Sonic falls to the lava and Eggman actually saves him with black claw that is set under the mobile (which later becomes horizontally rotating rotor), only to prevail upon the close of zone's boss, Pit Master. Eggman then starts to fire bouncing bombs to Sonic from off-screen, which only explodes on Pit Master's mouth. At the end, Eggman tries to drive towards Sonic but crashes on Pit Master, which finishes it off and Eggman flies away with his Egg Mobile. The Egg Mobile does not appear in the game after this as the rest of the Master Robot series takes its place.

16-bit[edit | edit source]

File:Sonic 2 Egg Mobile.png

In Sonic the Hedgehog 2, its various ports and re-releases, the lock-on game Knuckles in Sonic 2, the Egg Mobile, known as Eggman's Mobile[6] (エッグマンモービル[6] Egguman Mōbiru?, lit. "Eggman Mobile"), returns as Dr. Eggman's means of transport. While drastically different from its past appearances, the craft retains its universal features. In gameplay, it is featured below:

SegaSonic the Hedgehog[edit | edit source]

File:Eggmobileending.png
The Egg Mobile, from SegaSonic the Hedgehog.

In SegaSonic the Hedgehog, the Egg Mobile sports the design from Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit), but the windshield is missing. It is seen at the title screen of the game as Dr. Eggman is flying with it in the background. Another time is at the small ending cutscene after the credits, where the doctor flies in middle of the ocean until the Egg Mobile stops moving due to the lack of fuel and falls to the ocean with the villain screaming.

Sonic the Hedgehog CD[edit | edit source]

In Sonic the Hedgehog CD, the Windows 95 version and the 2011 remaster, the Egg Mobile is featured in the following boss battles:

The Egg Mobile is featured once again in Stardust Speedway. As Sonic races Metal Sonic, Eggman will follow behind with the Egg Mobile. Throughout the race, it will fire a downwards laser that will make the player lose a life when touched, regardless of Rings. When the player wins, Eggman will deactivate the laser and retreat.

Sonic Spinball[edit | edit source]

File:Spinball eggmobile.png

The Egg Mobile is featured at the Bonus Stage of the 16-bit version of Sonic Spinball, based on the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 design. At Bonus Stages, the player has to destroy all purple capsules behind the Egg Mobile with their pinball skills and then blow the mobile itself, leaving Eggman fainted on ground. If you try to blow the Egg Mobile before blowing purple capsules, it will bounce the ball back. It is also the final weapon in the 8-bit version of Showdown.

Sonic Chaos[edit | edit source]

The cubic-shaped Egg Mobile appears in the intro and bad ending sequences of Sonic Chaos, as Dr. Eggman away with the red Chaos Emerald in its grabber gadget. Sonic and Tails runs behind him, but he gets away. One of bosses, the Bouncy Boss Robot is basically an Egg Mobile which has a robotic Eggman drone firing projectiles and bouncing towards the player. The Egg Mobile itself is seen again in Electric Egg Zone where has been modified into the game's final boss, The Laser Walker.

Sonic Drift series[edit | edit source]

File:SSS SONIC4C.png

In Sonic Drift and Sonic Drift 2, the Egg Mobile is known as the Eggman Mobile (エッグマンモービル[15] Egguman Mōbiru?). In both games, it sports its appearance from Sonic 2, and appears modified into the Egg Typhoon, which serves as Dr. Eggman's personal racing vehicle.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles[edit | edit source]

Dr. Eggman in the Egg Mobile while stealing the Master Emerald, from Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

In Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and the lock-on game Sonic 3 & Knuckles, the Egg Mobile is driven, in most cases, by Dr. Eggman, and appears at the end of most of the second Acts of several Zones as a boss, while modified with varied attachments. These are featured below:

The games also feature different cutscenes at certain points in which Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile. This is the case several times in Launch Base Zone. That Zone's Act 2 also has a sequence in which Sonic/Tails uses the hovercraft to get to the repaired Death Egg's hangar. Furthermore, in Sonic/Tails' version of Hidden Palace Zone, Eggman uses the Egg Mobile's claw to steal the Master Emerald from its altar.

While playing as Knuckles, an Eggrobo pilots the Egg Mobile instead of Dr. Eggman. In Sky Sanctuary Zone, the player will also inevitably get caught by the vehicle's claw armament and brought before Mecha Sonic Mk. II, who will accidentally destroy the Egg Mobile and its Eggrobo in an attempt to kill Knuckles.

Knuckles' Chaotix[edit | edit source]

Several upgraded Egg Mobiles are used by Eggman as bosses in the game.

Sonic 3D Blast[edit | edit source]

File:Getaloadofthis.png

In Sonic 3D Blast, the Egg Mobile is featured in the third Act of each Zone. It has simple design from previous games, while it is seen to have rocket engines on each side of the mobile and aiming down instead of back. The Egg Mobile is upgraded with small attachments or weapons. It is featured below:

Sonic R[edit | edit source]

File:SonicR EggmanEggMobile.png

In Sonic R, Dr. Eggman uses a modified Egg Mobile as a racing vehicle.[16][5] The hovercraft in this game has the appearance from Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit), without many extra details. To unlock Eggman and his Egg Mobile, the player has to come in first place in the first four race courses.

In gameplay, the Egg Mobile has great steering, good acceleration and is able to hover above water, but it has low speed and no grip. Eggman and his Egg Mobile's main weapon in the game is the homing missile, which the player can fire by pressing the Template:A Button (Sega Saturn), Template:C Button (Sega Saturn), or Y when the target reticle is green. To lock onto the target, the player has to aim precisely. It also takes ten Rings from the player's score and has brief recharge after launching the homing missile.

Sonic Adventure[edit | edit source]

File:Egg-Mobile-Sonic-Adventure.png

In Sonic Adventure, its remake Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut and the 2010 remaster, the Egg Mobile is spelled as the Eggmobile.[17] In these games, its design has been noticeably updated to look more like a semi-realistic functional vehicle. The Egg Mobile appears multiple times throughout all the playable characters' storylines as Dr. Eggman's means of transportation.

File:Dolphin 2015-10-09 19-32-33-137.png

During the games, the Egg Mobile shows a wide variety of new features. This includes abducting objects from below, an extendable built-in claw equipment used to grab items, and purple sleeping gas that can be released from the hovercraft's front.

Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile on multiple occasions during most characters' stories:

  • In Sonic's storyline, Eggman first uses the Egg Mobile to show off near Tails's Work Shop at the Mystic Ruins, where he fights the hedgehog using the Egg Hornet modification. After being defeated, he uses a built-in claw to snatch the purple Chaos Emerald from Tails' hands and flee with it. Upon completing Casinopolis, the player is taken to a cutscene where the doctor releases sleeping gas from the Egg Mobile to snatch another Chaos Emerald from the heroes. Later, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile to abduct two Chaos Emeralds following Sonic's encounter with Knuckles. After said encounter, he uses the Egg Mobile to go to the Egg Carrier. Eggman subsequently uses the Egg Mobile multiple times at the Egg Carrier, such as when he sends E-102 Gamma to fight Sonic, and during the Chaos 6 battle, after which he uses the hovercraft to escape from the falling Egg Carrier. At Final Egg, Eggman uses the Egg Mobile one last time to pilot the Egg Viper to fight Sonic, only to be defeated. At the ending cutscene, the Egg Mobile is used by Eggman to flee from the Mystic Ruins.
  • During Tails' storyline, the Egg Mobile is used once again by Eggman at the Mystic Ruins to battle Tails with the Egg Hornet. After his defeat, he uses the built-in claw to snatch the purple Chaos Emerald from Tails and flee with it. He later pilots the hovercraft to knock Sonic and Tails out with sleeping gas outside of Casinopolis, and to get two Chaos Emeralds after Tails' battle with Knuckles. After said encounter, he uses the Egg Mobile to go to the Egg Carrier. He would use the Egg Mobile again at Station Square, where he had a race against Tails, after which he attached the Egg Mobile to the Egg Walker, only to be defeated once again.
  • In Amy's storyline, the Egg Mobile is briefly seen at the Egg Carrier, where Eggman pilots it to send E-102 Gamma to fight Sonic.
  • In Big's story, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile before the battle against Chaos.
  • In Gamma's story, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile onboard the Egg Carrier when he sends the robot to fight Sonic.
  • In Super Sonic's story, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile at the Mystic Ruins while cursing Sonic, before reuniting with Chaos. However, near the Altar of Emerald, he would be knocked out of the Egg Mobile, presumably by Chaos, where he and the hovercraft would lie near the Master Emerald alongside Knuckles. After recovering, Eggman flees with the still-functional Egg Mobile. Later, when Perfect Chaos blows the Egg Carrier 2 up, the Egg Mobile and Eggman would fly away by the explosion. After Super Sonic defeats and neutralizes Perfect Chaos, Eggman flees in his hovercraft.

In gameplay, the Egg Mobile is featured in the following boss fights:

Also, in Tails' version of Speed Highway, the player has to race Dr. Eggman, who is piloting the Egg Mobile. Compared to Sonic in previous Action Stages, the Egg Mobile can instantly accelerate at high speeds and fly through the stage, making it difficult to outspeed the doctor without employing shortcuts.

In addition to all these appearances, similar-looking Egg Mobile models appear at the Captain Room in the Egg Carrier, and the Private Room in the same Adventure Stage features two mini Egg Mobiles that resemble the model from Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit).

Sonic Adventure 2[edit | edit source]

Main article: Eggwalker
File:Officialeggman.png
The Eggwalker, from Sonic Adventure 2.

In Sonic Adventure 2, where Dr. Eggman is playable, he rides a modified Egg Mobile, which has become a "chicken walker" mech called the Eggwalker. It has a pair of backward-jointed legs added, a machine gun to one side and a rocket launcher perched above Eggman's head. The two battles against Eggman are fought against this mode.

The traditional flying Egg Mobile appears only during the introduction cutscene of Knuckles and Rouge. In it, he once again uses a yellow claw in an attempt to take the Master Emerald. While Knuckles manages to break the Master Emerald into shards at the time, Eggman escapes back to the pyramid base.

Sonic Advance series[edit | edit source]

Sonic Advance[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Advance, the Egg Mobile reprises its role from the classic games. At the end of Neo Green Hill Zone Act 2, the player first encounters Dr. Eggman on his Egg Mobile. After each boss fight, the doctor can be seen flying away in his hovercraft. In X-Zone, the vehicle is given its designs from the original Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic the Hedgehog 2. In gameplay, it is featured below:

Sonic Advance 2[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Advance 2, the Egg Mobile reuses its appearance from Sonic Advance, and like in that game, it serves as Eggman's vehicle. The Egg Mobile is featured below:

Sonic Advance 3[edit | edit source]

File:Advance 3 eggmobile.png

In Sonic Advance 3, the Egg Mobile is given slightly different design, having more jet plane-looking appearance with two rocket engines and small red lower wing at the Egg Mobile's bottom. It once again reprises its role from the classic games and during the boss battles, Gemerl merges together with the Egg Mobile to be a part of Eggman's machines until the end of the game. The Egg Mobile is featured below:

In the bad ending, the character destroys the Egg Mobile after the final boss, sending it plummeting down, while in the good ending, Super Sonic and Eggman team up against the Ultimate Gemerl at Nonaggression, where the only thing that can damage Ultimate Gemerl is the Tag Action with Eggman where Super Sonic load and fires Eggman in his Egg Mobile into the eye of Ultimate Gemerl to open its eye for Super Sonic to damage it. After the battle, Eggman carries the tired Super Sonic back to the Altar Emerald and flies away with the Egg Mobile.

Sonic Battle[edit | edit source]

File:Sonic-Battle-Eggmobile.png

In Sonic Battle, the Egg Mobile is only seen during the fight against Eggman on the Death Egg's battle arena in the final story of the game.

During the battle against Eggman in the Egg Mobile, Eggman has five lives. In battle, Eggman fires numerous missiles all over the place which can knock the player into the air, which the player can avoid by running around the wide arena. Eggman can also drop exploding bombs below the Egg Mobile. When knocked into the air, the Egg Mobile slowly lands back down. When the Egg Mobile gets destroyed, it explodes and causes damage to Emerl if he is too close to Eggman.

Sonic Heroes[edit | edit source]

File:Eggman heroes.png
"Eggman" in the Egg Mobile, from Sonic Heroes.

The Egg Mobile makes another appearance in Sonic Heroes where is mainly piloted by Neo Metal Sonic under the disguise of Dr. Eggman.

Throughout the game, the Egg Mobile is seen being attached to a larger battle mech three times for a boss battle; in the first two battles, "Eggman" manages to escape from destroyed battle mech at the end of fight. It is also seen in the background during Robot Carnival and Robot Storm where the "doctor" is commanding his troops. The Egg Mobile is featured below:

Shadow the Hedgehog[edit | edit source]

The Egg Mobile in Shadow the Hedgehog features the same design it had in Sonic Heroes and is seen being piloted by Eggman. The Egg Mobile is only seen twice in the cutscenes in the game, namely in those before starting Cryptic Castle and Iron Jungle, where Eggman is seen giving commands to Shadow Androids from the Egg Mobile. It is also used to pilot the Egg Breaker or the Egg Dealer.

Sonic Rush series[edit | edit source]

File:Egg-Mobiles-Sonic-Rush.png
Aesthetic differences of Dr. Eggman's (left) and Eggman Nega's Egg Mobiles (right), from Sonic Rush.

In both Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure, the Egg Mobile was the featured vehicle for both Dr. Eggman and Eggman Nega, with each of them having their own Egg Mobile. In these games, the design of the Egg Mobile is recycled from Sonic Adventure and the only difference between Eggman and Eggman Nega's Egg Mobile is their color schemes; Dr. Eggman's Egg Mobile is gray and yellow, while Eggman Nega's mobile is yellow and red.

In Sonic Rush, both Eggman and Eggman Nega used their Egg Mobiles as cockpits in their larger mechs for boss battles by attaching them to these machines and the only weak point of these machines are the Egg Mobiles' glass dome. Once these machines are defeated, Eggman and his Egg Mobile gets kicked away by Blaze the Cat (if fighting them for the first time) or escape from the battle with the Egg Mobile in a poor condition. One of the doctors is also seen watching the fierce battle between Sonic and Blaze from the Egg Mobile in the background. Despite not taking part in the fight, the doctor (depending on the player's character) strangely flees away in the Egg Mobile in the same manner of that in the previous boss fights. Either one of the doctors' Egg Mobile is featured below:

In one of the last single cinematic cutscene in Sonic Rush Adventure, Eggman is seen flying in the Egg Mobile alongside the Egg Wizard, before he and Eggman Nega both start using the Egg Wizard to go after the Power of the Stars).

Sonic Riders series[edit | edit source]

Sonic Riders[edit | edit source]

File:Eggmobile in Sonic Riders.png
The Egg Mobile, from Sonic Riders.

In Sonic Riders, the Egg Mobile uses its design from Sonic Adventure. It is briefly seen used by Dr. Eggman in the cutscene that follows either Sand Ruins or Dark Desert, where he uses the aircraft's grabber attachment to snatch the Key to Babylon Garden away from Jet's hand and flies to the risen Babylon Garden.

Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity[edit | edit source]

File:Sonic Riders Zero Gravity Egg Mobile.png
The Egg Mobile, from Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity.

In Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, like in Sonic Riders, the Egg Mobile bears its design from Sonic Adventure. In Team Heroes' story, it is briefly seen in the cutscene after Gigan Rocks, where Dr. Eggman is flying away from the Babylon Rogues' airship, after Sonic and his friends find out the truth about the Arks of the Cosmos. Meanwhile, in the Babylon story, it is seen in the scene that follows Tempest Waterway, where the Babylon Rouges discover that the doctor has stolen the Arks of the Cosmos and see him take off in the Egg Mobile, with the Arks being held by two mechanical arms on the back of the vehicle.

Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)[edit | edit source]

File:Wmplayer 2016-08-25 19-36-53-924.png
The Egg Mobile, from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006).

In Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), a completely different version of the Egg Mobile is used by Dr. Eggman to kidnap Elise.

The only time when Egg Mobile is ever show being utilized in combat is when it attached itself to the Egg Wyvern, the final boss in the Sonic's story. During the fight, the arm parts on the Egg Mobile can change into laser cannons. Occasionally, the player has to hit Egg Mobile's cockpit when the Egg Wyvern's upper part opens and Eggman charges the laser cannons, which can be used to reach the cockpit with the Homing Attack. After the battle, the Egg Mobile is destroyed along with the Egg Wyvern, while Eggman escapes as the Egg Mobile seat is ejected from the Egg Mobile, and spins off into the clouds after ricocheting off one of the detached arms.

Sonic Rivals 2[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Rivals 2, Eggman Nega, under the disguise of Dr. Eggman, pilots the Egg Mobile as a part of almost every boss vehicle in the game. The Egg Mobile can be briefly seen when the player destroys one of the bosses as it flies away.

The design of his Egg Mobile in this game is drastically different from its previous designs. It has a tubular design with four rocket engines aiming down at the Egg Mobile's sides. To defeat a boss machine, the player usually has to hit the machine's glass dome six times before the rival character does it. The Egg Mobile is featured below:

Sonic Unleashed[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Unleashed, the Egg Mobile received another new design. In the beginning of Sonic Unleashed, Eggman piloted a large prototype mech from his Egg Mobile, which had been attached to the mech, and engaged with it in battle with Sonic when he arrived on the central battleship of the special Egg Fleet. After being defeated by Super Sonic, Eggman escaped in the Egg Mobile to the Chaos Energy Cannon, while Super Sonic chased him through his space armada. At the Chaos Energy Cannon, Eggman got to the main room of the cannon, while tumbling out of the Egg Mobile after losing the control while Super Sonic arrived. When Eggman tricked Super Sonic into the center of the cannon and used him to awaken Dark Gaia, Eggman sought refuged inside the Egg Mobile again before opening a window into space, throwing Sonic the Werehog out of the Chaos Energy Cannon.

After that, Eggman is seen using the Egg Mobile as his main transporting vehicle in several of the cutscenes through the game. The Egg Mobile is featured below, though in Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 version, Eggman is replaced with Little Fighters piloting the Egg Devil Ray and the Egg Lancer:

Sonic the Hedgehog 4[edit | edit source]

File:Eggmobile-Sonic4.gif
The Egg Mobile's design, from Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I.

The Egg Mobile in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I has a slightly different design that looks similar to one it had in the original Sonic the Hedgehog. During the game, the Egg Mobile mostly adapts Dr. Eggman's old inventions from the original Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 with new strategies. The Egg Mobile is featured below:

The Egg Mobile in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II looks the same as it did in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, but has gotten a few new inventions to adapt itself with. The Egg Mobile also shows new ways to merge with Eggman's creations (for example by using a magnet add-on that can be used to fuse scrap metal into a robot). At some point during the Sky Fortress Zone, Eggman rejected the Egg Mobile and used a rocket pod to travel to the Death Egg mk.II, were he has another Egg Mobile ready. In the Death Egg mk.II Zone, Metal Sonic and Eggman in his Egg Mobile teams up to fight Sonic and Tails. The Egg Mobile is listed below:

Sonic Colors[edit | edit source]

In the Wii version of Sonic Colors, and its remaster Sonic Colors: Ultimate, the Egg Mobile has the same design from Sonic Unleashed, though it now features an engraving of the doctor's face on the back. In this game, Eggman only uses it as his main method of transport, aside from piloting the Nega-Wisp Armor. In the mid-point of the game, Eggman also installed the Egg Mobile with a mind control beam when attempting to ambush Sonic, but Tails pushed Sonic out of the way, making it brainwashed him instead. It ran out of Hyper-go-on power before a fight could start, however, resulting in Eggman's retreat. After his defeat against Sonic in the Nega-Wisp Armor, Eggman was unable to control the damaged Egg Mobile as he was sucked into black hole. After the black hole was stopped, Eggman, in his Egg Mobile, was pushed forward by Orbot and Cubot in space to prepare his revenge at Sonic. The Egg Mobile was also alluded to in the Tropical Resort level during gameplay via one of Eggman's recordings. He tries to contact for the owner of a "white hovercraft shaped like an egg" as it was being broken into, only to react with surprise, apparently realizing that it was the Egg Mobile that was being broken into.

Sonic Generations[edit | edit source]

In the console/PC version of Sonic Generations, the Egg Mobile is seen only in cutscenes. It features the same design it had in Sonic Unleashed and Sonic Colors.

After the Death Egg Robot battle, Classic Eggman's Egg Mobile briefly appears before the Time Eater abducted him. As Classic and Modern Sonic and Tails confront the Time Eater in the Center of Time, Classic and Modern Eggman revealed themselves as the masterminds behind the Time Eater, both of them sitting in their Egg Mobiles which are connected to the head of the Time Eater. After the Time Eater is defeated, both Eggmen lose their Egg Mobiles.

Sonic Lost World[edit | edit source]

In the Wii U version, the PC version and Nintendo 3DS version of Sonic Lost World, the Egg Mobile features the same design it had from Sonic Unleashed. At the beginning of the games, the Egg Mobile was carrying a Capsule that hangs suspended from its underside by the claw through the sky. After discovering that Sonic and Tails on the Tornado were chasing after them, Eggman drops the Capsule and shoots to the Tornado using a beam gun. The Egg Mobile is later seen when Sonic found Eggman at Windy Hill, who then introduced the Deadly Six and commanded Zazz to get rid of him.

Later at Desert Ruins, Eggman, in the Egg Mobile, scolded the Deadly Six for their failures, before Sonic managed to kick the Cacophonic Conch from Eggman's far away, thus freeing the Deadly Six from Eggman's control. The Deadly Six then hijacked the present Badniks and ordered to fire on Sonic and Eggman, while Zazz attacked the Egg Mobile before Zomom smashed it into the ground, forcing Eggman and his lackeys to abandon it. At the end of the game, Eggman managed to get another Egg Mobile and attached it to his Eggrobo in Lava Mountain for his battle with Sonic, but was defeated once more.

Sonic Mania[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Mania, and its expansion Sonic Mania Plus, the Egg Mobile appears surprisingly rarely in Mania Mode. These battles are as listed below:

File:Sonic-Mania-Egg-Mobile.png
The Egg Mobile seen after the Weather Globe boss fight, from Sonic Mania.

After being defeated in Studiopolis Zone Act 2, Dr. Eggman escapes in the Egg Mobile. The Egg Mobile is briefly seen prior the final phase on Metal Sonic battle when Eggman tosses the Phantom Ruby to Metal Sonic, as he then proceeds to transform into Giga Metal. Later on, the Egg Mobile is seen being parked on the edge of a cliff with the Screw Mobile around it at the beginning of the boss battle in Hydrocity Zone Act 1. As a unique take on this boss battle, the player can hop into the Egg Mobile and move it around above the water pool that Eggman is swimming around in and setting round bombs for the player. Much like the boss battle in Sonic 3 & Knuckles, the player can drop pipe bombs to destroy the round bombs in the water pool or create subsiding water vortexes to catch and damage Eggman. Also, in the final battle with the Phantom King in Egg Reverie Zone, Eggman used a damaged Egg Mobile to make the Klepto Mobile.

Additionally, one of the four Eggrobos during the boss battle with the Heavy Gunner in Studiopolis Zone Act 1 will be piloting a larger helicopter-like vehicle loosely based on the classic Egg Mobile. Many design elements that this vehicle has in common with the Egg Mobile include its shape and helicopter attachment seen from the Egg Mobile design in Sonic the Hedgehog 2, and a pair of mechanical feet featured in the Egg Mobile in Sonic the Hedgehog (1991).

When about to fight the Heavy King as Knuckles in Lava Reef Zone Act 2, the echidna remembers the time when Eggman piloted the Egg Mobile to steal the Master Emerald.

In Sonic Mania Plus' Encore Mode, the Egg Mobile appears during the same boss battles as in Mania Mode where it serves the same roles. However, the Klepto Mobile does not appear, as Egg Reverie Zone is not included in that mode.

Sonic Forces[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Forces, the Egg Mobile appears in cutscenes most of the time. In this game, it retains its appearance from Sonic Unleashed. When Classic Sonic encountered Eggman talking with Infinite, he waited for Infinite to leave, and lunged at Eggman, striking the hull of the Egg Mobile. Annoyed by his sudden arrival, Eggman uncharacteristically attempted to retreat in order to resume his rounding up the Resistance, only for Classic Sonic to give chase, forcing Eggman to personally take a stand against his eternal nemesis.

It was then that the Egg Mobile is used as an attack vehicle when Classic Sonic briefly fights him in Green Hill. The fight behaves similarly to their very first encounter, except instead of a wrecking ball, he uses a buzzsaw blade attached to a chain. Classic Sonic managed to destroy the chained buzzsaw attached to the Egg Mobile, only to find that Dr. Eggman had been prepared for that eventuality. Remotely calling out the Egg Dragoon, Eggman used the Egg Mobile to pilot the Egg Dragoon.

After the Egg Dragoon was destroyed, Eggman, still inside the Egg Mobile, was sent flying to another part of Green Hill, where Eggman revealed his plan, and pointed out that the Resistance had three days before the plan would succeed. He said this whilst struggling to get the Egg Mobile's thrusters back online, which he eventually succeeded in doing, before promptly taking off.

At the end of the game, Eggman used the Egg Mobile to pilot the Death Egg Robot in Eggman Empire Fortress for a battle with Sonic, Classic Sonic, and the Avatar.

Sonic Frontiers[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Frontiers, the Egg Mobile retains its design once again from Sonic Unleashed. At the beginning of the game, Dr. Eggman sets off his operations on the Kronos Island and begins his search for the Ancients' secrets while piloting the Egg Mobile in cloudy night.[18] He eventually approaches an ancient-looking throne, as Eggman descends from the Egg Mobile and begins uploading A.I. program to the Portal with the goal of taking over the cyber security and gaining access to the Ancients' secrets on Starfall Islands.[19]

Throughout the game, Eggman is seen on the Egg Mobile while being stuck in the Cyber Space. Shortly after being released from the digital dimension and temporarily inducting Sonic into the empire against their common enemy,[20] Eggman on the Egg Mobile begins to search for missing Chaos Emeralds, one of which he shares with Sonic during the climax of the game.

Sonic Superstars[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Superstars, the Egg Mobile retains its design from Sonic the Hedgehog. Here it appears in shortly before all major boss fights against Dr. Eggman (excluding Speed Jungle Zone, Lagoon City Zone, Press Factory Zone and Golden Capital Zone). Upon being defeated in each Zone, Eggman will quickly flee inside the Egg Mobile (excluding the previously mention Zones). Attachments to the Egg Mobile is featured below:

At the end of Tails' personalized act in Frozen Base Zone, he finds an abandoned Egg Mobile inside one of the base's areas and promptly renovates it to aid him, Sonic, Knuckles, and Amy in their pursuit of Eggman. In the entirety of Frozen Base Zone Act, the player will be controlling the renovated Egg Mobile. Holding the jump button will make the Egg Mobile fire out laser blasts that can eliminate enemies and hazards. Sonic and friends later use the Egg Mobile to escape Egg Fortress Zone when it explodes.

During Trip's Story, the Egg Mobile is instead controlled by an Eggrobo, similar to Knuckles' Story in Sonic 3 & Knuckles. In Frozen Base Act 2, Trip uses a contraption similar to that of the Egg Scorcher Mark III. She lastly uses it to escape the repaired Egg Fortress Zone when it explodes.

Other game appearances[edit | edit source]

Sonic Jam (Game.com)[edit | edit source]

In Sonic Jam (Game.com), the Egg Mobile makes an appearance as Dr. Eggman's hovercraft. In gameplay, the Egg Mobile is featured in the bosses below:

Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure[edit | edit source]

The Egg Mobile in Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure comes in two different designs throughout the game. The Egg Mobile's first design resembles the one it had in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and can be seen as a part of the boss vehicles at the end of each Zone's second act. This design for the Egg Mobile is last seen in Aquatic Relix Zone when Dr. Eggman steals the Chaos Emeralds from Sonic's hands and then flies to Gigantic Angel Zone.

At the end of the game, the Egg Mobile in the final vehicle of Last Utopia Zone has the design it had in the original Sonic the Hedgehog. In the regular ending, Dr. Eggman tries to escape in the Egg Mobile, but Sonic's final Spin Jump blows up the Egg Mobile and send it falling down to earth. If the player got all the Chaos Emeralds in the game, however, the doctor flies away in his Egg Mobile to his final weapon at Chaotic Space Zone. After the battle, Super Sonic gives the finish move and Eggman flies down to earth with a exploding Egg Mobile. The Egg Mobile boss battles are remarkably similar to the following boss machines:

Sonic Pinball Party[edit | edit source]

File:Pinball egg mobile.png

In Sonic Pinball Party, the Egg Mobile appears above one of the Chao holes on the Sonic Board in Egg Mode. To go to the next stage Eggman must be defeated by putting the pinball in the hole a set number of times. During the game, the Egg Mobile is seen to have similar appearance from original Sonic the Hedgehog.

Sonic the Hedgehog (Didj)[edit | edit source]

In Sonic the Hedgehog (Didj), the Egg Mobile is known as the Flying Egg Craft.[21]

After Sonic defeated the Egg Dragoon and ended up in the center of the earth, Dark Gaia appeared and Eggman, in the Egg Mobile, commanded it to destroy Sonic and Chip, only to get smashed away and sent to the surface of the Earth. At the end of the game, Eggman and Orbot had crashed in a deserted rocky land with his Egg Mobile.

In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics, the Egg Mobile was the personal vehicle of Dr. Ivo Robotnik and later of his successor, Dr. Eggman. As the doctor continued expanding his schemes and participated less on the battlefield though, the Egg Mobile would fade out of use and be handed over to the Dark Egg Legion. After recovering from insanity however, Eggman began making use of the Egg Mobile again, even incorporating into his seat of power.

After the universe was recreated by the Super Genesis Wave, the Egg Mobile's history became virtually identical to its game counterpart.

Films[edit | edit source]

Paramount[edit | edit source]

File:SonicMovie2 Robotnikfiresmissile.png
The Egg Mobile, from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (film).

In the Sonic the Hedgehog film series produced by Paramount Pictures, Dr. Robotnik utilizes a vehicle called the Prototype or the Eggpod. This Egg Mobile is quite different from most other versions of the vehicle. In this media, it looks like a military aircraft that has a modern and futuristic look, with an egg-shaped cockpit and two floats (one on each side). It possesses a white and black color scheme, as well as hazard stripes on the sides. It is also energized by one of Sonic's quills, allowing it to keep up with Sonic's speed. The Eggpod is also equipped with an interface which Robotnik uses to control his Badniks, as well as a large assortment missile launchers, laser-targeting, and a laser cannon. The Eggpod serves as Dr. Robotnik's personal vehicle at the end of the movie. Eventually though, the Eggpod was destroyed by Sonic, and it and Robotnik got sent to the Mushroom Planet.

Dr. Robotnik would later acquire a new personal vehicle with black and white armor and a red lamp in the center that is reminiscent of the Egg Mobile from the mainline Sonic the Hedgehog games, and he was using it in Siberia for getting the compass, later it was abandoned in the very place.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • The spelling "Eggmobile" originated from a track title called "ENEMY: Eggmobile 2 & 3" from the Sonic Adventure Sound Test, but it has been used as recently as Sonic Lost World when the game is set to other languages besides English and Japanese. Recent products have alternated between using either "Egg Mobile" or "Eggmobile".
  • During many CGI cutscenes of Sonic Unleashed, Eggman has a Dreamcast lying in the pilot seat of the Egg Mobile's cockpit. There are also two Dreamcast games to be seen, one including the modified Sonic Adventure cover featuring Eggman instead of Sonic and the second game's cover shows artwork of another Sonic Team game NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams.
  • It is strange as to how the vehicle manages to fit the retracting giant wrecking ball inside itself with the cockpit taking too much space.
  • In Sonic Unleashed and later games, the Egg Mobile has a main button with seven lights on the sides which each have the colors of the Chaos Emeralds.
  • The Egg Mobile appears in LEGO Dimensions with a few notable design differences. It has two robotic arms protruding from it at all times, and the headlight has been replaced with a compartment used to store the Keystone Device that Dr. Eggman uses in the Level Pack. It is also much larger than usual to accommodate Eggman's "big figure" proportions.
  • Unlike the comic series, the Egg Mobile never appeared in the Sonic the Hedgehog (TV series). Instead, Robotnik had two different hovercrafts. One in the pilot episode and one in the rest of the series.
