Appearance[]

History[]

TV series[]

Season one[]

Egg-o-matic tunnelizer

Dr. Robotnik drilling his way to the Mobius reservoir with the Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer.

Dr. Ivo Robotnik invented the Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer for the sole purpose of rupturing the Mobius reservoir and flood a village nearby, creating what he would call "Lake Robotnik". In order to succeed with his plan, Robotnik created his special agent Breezie to seduce and distract Sonic so he would not get in his way. To Robotnik's annoyance however, Scratch and Grounder had no idea what the vehicle was supposed to be when he showed it to them.[1]

Sending Scratch and Grounder to assist Breezie, Robotnik tunneled underground, heading for the reservoir. While he was traveling however, Breezie betrayed him and told Sonic his plan. Before Robotnik reached the reservoir, Sonic confronted him with Mobius' longest bungee rope which he hooked onto the Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer. Robotnik and his Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer were subsequently slingshot to a crashing end.[1]

Much later, Scratch and Grounder used the Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer to capture Sonic's friend, Big Mike. Big Mike got trapped under a car, and Scratch and Grounder tied the car to the back of the Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer and zoomed through a tunnel. Big Mike got dragged behind under the car.[2]

Later, after his battle vehicle was sabotaged and destroyed by Sonic, Robotnik used the Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer to escape.[3]

Trivia[]

  • The Egg-O-Matic Tunnelizer and Town Terrorizer (or at least a similar model) appeared in the pilot episode of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. There, Dr. Ivo Robotnik used it to drill his way through a beach and catch Sonic, only to fall off a cliff.
