Orbinaut

From the Sonic News Network, the Sonic Wiki

Orbinaut is a metal ball ringed by four spiked balls that it throws at its prey. This is its only method of attack, and also its greatest weakness, as once all four spiked balls have been thrown, Orbinaut is completely defenceless. It's based on a sea urchin. It also appeared in the comics.
