Mechanical Monster	comment	So your Mecha-Mooks aren't cutting it? What's the next logical step up from taking the already impressive stamina, loyalty, and destructive power of a mechanical henchman? Simply, you go absolutely off the wall with them. Where the mecha-mook will be a dime a thousand, you'll see only a few, or only one, Mechanical Monster. This may be due to limited resources or simply because everyone involved in making it is no longer amongst the living. They are always improbably hard to stop, incredibly persistent, never needs to recharge and always, always terrifying to look at. Very likely to be the big bad's Dragon, and often times much tougher to kill. While mecha-mooks are often fragile, incompetent, and generally gentle at their jobs, expect the Mechanical Monster to be far less kind to its prey. Slashing, stabbing, soul-stealing to fuel their infernal engines, and loud noises are all par for the course. Lastly, in extreme cases, it may also be much bigger size-wise than a standard mecha-mook, with some even doubling as Humongous Mecha opponents. Mechanical Abomination is when it goes to Eldritch Abomination levels.

Mechanical Monster / int_2f1032e5	comment	Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans has the Hashmal, one of the Mobile Armors responsible for the Calamity War that saw a quarter of humanity decimated. As opposed to the humanoid-shaped piloted Mobile Suits (which were originally built to fight Mobile Armors), Hashmal is a completely autonomous machine with a monstrous appearance designed with only one purpose: to kill all humans. It is accompanied by its own army of insectoid machines known as Plumas that can Zerg Rush any opposition in addition to keeping the Hashmal itself functional. Further adding to its monstrous nature is its name, which is taken from an angel as opposed to the Gundam Frames, which are named after demons. To further emphasize how dangerous it is, the Hashmal also has a beam cannon, a rarity in a series where Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better: while the beam cannon won't necessarily destroy a Mobile Suit thanks to its nanolaminate armor, it's plenty useful for vaporizing humans and destroying cities.

Mechanical Monster / int_318fe3d2	comment	Mechanical bosses aren't too frequent in the Etrian Odyssey series, because of the fantasy setting, but they exist: Etrian Odyssey: Though the original game averts the trope, The Millenium Girl remake adds two robotic bosses in the also-added dungeon Gladsheim: The first is Gimle, which is capable of shooting powerful missiles at the player's party even before its boss battle properly begins; and the second is M.I.K.E., which by the point it's found goes haywire and must be destroyed). Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City: The Gatekeeper is a black robot that serves as the boss of the Molten Caves, and aims to protect the entrance to the Abyssal Shrine at all costs (it was originally build by the Abyssal King to prevent outsiders from going further). Its attack repertoire is also very varied, including laser beams and missiles, and its individual parts can be separated to attack more efficiently. Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan: The Cradle Guardian is the King Mook of the robotic F.O.E. that roam the Echoing Library, and is capable of switching its strengths and weaknesses at will. It's summoned by Prince Baldur, who in that moment is being corrupted by the influence of Yggdrasil, and is kidnapping the Medium to revive the Yggdrasil.

In the Nintendo DS remake, if it's Yoshi who challenges him, then King Bob-Omb will attack by throwing smaller Bob-Ombs instead, since Yoshi cannot grab anything and instead has to throw the Bob-Ombs back at the boss by using his mouth. Bob-Omb went on to return in several Mario spin-offs since then.

Mechanical Monster / int_61d4e874	comment	Conker's Bad Fur Day: Haybot serves as the first major boss in the game (the wasp army from the Windy chapter is the first overall, but they aren't challenged in a proper battle until much later in the game). Initially disguised as a large sentient pile of haystack, the boss's true form is exposed during the second phase of the fight, deep within the basement of the stable. In this form, it is capable of shooting missiles, squashing opponents with its hands, and crushing them. Its weakness is a self-destruct button located in its back, but it has to be pressed three times so the monster is defeated. The Big Big Guy is a living orange boiler piloted by a duo of fire imps, and is the second major boss in the game. It can charge at Conker to cause him damage, as well as exhale fire as a flamethrower. Bathing it with fecal debris will stun it, which gives Conker the chance to crush its (literal) Brass Balls with a pair of red bricks. Conker has to do this a total of four times to disable the machine for good and claim victory.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker has a non-malicious example with Gohdan, an ancient machine created by the gods to challenge the new hero before their access to the biggest secret of the Great Sea. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: The Guardians and the Divine Beasts. The Guardians are massive Spider Tank machines capable of firing extremely strong lasers, while the Divine Beasts are four Humongous Mecha shaped like animals. While the Guardians and the Divine Beasts had been built to protect Hyrule, all of them were literally Hijacked by Ganon 100 years before the game takes place, and have since been a very high threat for the lives of everybody living in Hyrule. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Unlike the standard Soldier Contructs which act as standard Mecha-Mooks, or even the stronger Training Construct minibosses, the Flux Constructs are boss-level threats and far more dangerous due to their increased strength and attack repertoire, as well as their ability to rearrange their cubical body parts to showcase and exploit various forms. Defeating them requires exposing their weak point and disarming it from the boss so they can inflict damage to it.

Mechasauruses and Mecha Oni play it straight, though: the former ones are robotic dinosaurs, and the seconds are horned, demonic-looking mechanical beasts.

Robirdo is a large, robotic dinosaur who spits eggs like normal Birdos do, but these are much bigger. It is also capable of charging at the player's character as well as performing a Ground Pound that shakes the floor. Super Mario 64: King Bob-Omb serves as the King Mook of Bob-Ombs (themselves being Mecha-Mooks), and attacks Mario by grabbing him to throw him; that's the same thing Mario has to do to him (three times) to win. In the Nintendo DS remake, if it's Yoshi who challenges him, then King Bob-Omb will attack by throwing smaller Bob-Ombs instead, since Yoshi cannot grab anything and instead has to throw the Bob-Ombs back at the boss by using his mouth. Bob-Omb went on to return in several Mario spin-offs since then. Super Mario Sunshine: Mecha-Bowser is a large robot modeled after the Koopa King. It is piloted by Shadow Mario a.k.a. Bowser Jr., and serves as the boss of Pinna Park; it can breathe fire and shoot missiles, forcing Mario to dispel any incoming projectile with the help of FLUDD. Super Mario Galaxy: There's a different version of Mecha-Bowser located in Toy Time Galaxy, and in it some Gearmos are kept captive, forcing Mario to disassemble it to rescue them. There's also Megaleg, a gargantuan robot modeled after the Snifits (a subspecies of Shy Guys) which Mario has to destroy in order to claim the Grand Star it has in its top. Super Mario Galaxy 2: The Megahammer is an enormous robot whose arms are shaped like hammers; Bowser Jr. challenges Mario with it in a battle for the Grand Star of World 3, and obviously loses. There's also Digga-Leg, a smaller version of Megaleg fought in Spin-Dig Galaxy which only guards a regular Power Star. Super Mario Odyssey: Mechawiggler is a large robotic specimen of Wiggler which is terrorizing New Donk City and its people, and is capable of attacking with energy spheres as well as warping from one spot to another with portals.

Mechanical Monster / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: Among the many Dwemer Animunculi you run into in throughout the series, there are always at least one type of these. In Morrowind, it's the Steam Centurions. In Skyrim there are Dwemer Centurions. These things are difficult to kill, hit hard, can end your quest in a few blows if you are careless, and their steam jet is a pretty good approximation of dragonbreath. And as if that was bad enough, Skyrim also has the Dwemer Centurion Masters. They are twice the size of their lesser brethren, as well as having double the armor and killing power. If that wasn't enough for you, try the Forgemaster on for size. This unique Centurion boss is even bigger, hits even harder, and instead of a steam breath is armed with an outright flamethrower. In Morrowind's Tribunal expansion, toward the end of the main quest, you'll be forced to face the Imperfect. The Imperfect is a borderline Humongous Mecha, standing easily twice the size of the Player Character, who serves as a Mini-Boss in Sotha Sil's Clockwork City. It has some of the strongest physical attacks in the game and can also use powerful Lightning attacks against you. If you are able to kill it quickly, you can claim the Elixir of the Imperfect from its corpse. It's a potion that restores 20 points of Health, Magicka, and Fatigue every second for 15 seconds, essentially giving you god-like abilities for the duration. However, you only get one from the Imperfect, and unless you kill it quickly, it will use the Elixir, making this fight all the more difficult.

Double subverted after said Time Skip. Two Pacifistas fall victim to The Worf Effect to demonstrate how powerful the Straw Hats are now, proving to be absolutely no challenge for them anymore.

Mechanical Monster / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000: The Dark Eldar Talos is a heavily armored floating mechanical scorpion acting as their version of a tank that grabs people off the battlefield and pulls them inside itself to slowly torture them to death, which powers its systems and weapons with their agony and souls. On the outside it has various torture implements acting as claws to restrain other victims, then torture and kill them to remove their souls. It also has a cannon in the shape of a tail that fires incredibly corrosive bio-acid. The Necrons have the Tomb Stalker, a giant metal centipede with two guns that fire beams of energy that flay you molecule by molecule. If that wasn't enough, it can become incorporeal in order to pursue its targets directly through the labyrinthine halls of the Necron crypts it guards. It can also sense you coming from literal miles away. Chaos has a variety of these as well. Chaos Daemons employ hulking brutes fused to a Spider Tank chassis called Defilers, that have cannons both mechanical and organic in nature. They can also use a form of monstrous Mecha which teleports. As well, Juggernauts are basically half-mechanical half-organic demonic Rhinos. The forces of Khorne additionally have the Lord of Skulls and the Kytan Daemon Engine, the former marrying a humanoid body with a huge tank-like mechanism and the latter being more like a small Titan. Chaos Space Marines have similar bipedal Mecha monsters that were formerly entirely mechanical. They have mechanical dinosaurs with More Dakka called Forgefiends that are armed with Gatling Good or plasma cannons, or a close combat variety. Last but not least a robotic dragon flyer called Heldrakes that have a gatling cannon or a flamer for a Breath Weapon and adamantium claws which can swoop down and slice tanks in half. When they were still a legion and had their primarch Lion running around, the Dark Angels had the Ironwing company which specialized in war engines. If things got ugly, sometimes they'd bring out the Excindio-class Battle Automata which are powerful and vicious robots. Being a mechanical monster is a step down for these machines as they were previously part of the Silica Animus that nearly destroyed humanity.

Razor's Edge: During the Big Bad Viest's Blood Sport "test," she drops a large barrel-shaped mining droid reprogrammed for rage and insanity into the playing field. Its cutting and digging arms attack the players, killing a Red Shirt and injuring Leia, its "sampling oriface" roars at them, and it more-or-less defeats itself by getting partially caught in an ore crusher. Later, Leia and the Aegis crewmembers find Viest's technician attempting to repair the droid, and they commandeer it to rampage through the Space Pirates' command center at an opportune moment. This backfires on them when it gets too close to the bomb they had rigged to blow up said command center, setting it off early.

Mechanical Monster / int_f04b4111	comment	Despite its futuristic setting, the Metroid series has a bigger focus on large monsters instead of large machines when it comes to bosses and antagonists. However, some cases still exist: Metroid Prime 2: Echoes: Quadraxis, the King Mook of the Quads, is a gigantic quadrupedal automaton that serves as the boss of Ing Hive (the Dark World version of Sanctuary Fortress); it was originally a benign creation by the Luminoth, until the Ing corrupted it with the power of Dark Aether. There's also the Caretaker Class Drone, a Mini-Boss found earlier in Sanctuary Fortress itself, at the start of a path leading to the Screw Attack. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption: The Defense Drone is a big robot built by the Chozo many decades ago that protects the Boost Ball powerup in Skytown, Elysia. Due to Phazon corruption, it's now hostile and proceeds to attack Samus as soon as she attempts to grab the Boost Ball powerup. Despite its large size, it is capable of performing impressive jumps. Metroid: Samus Returns: The Diggernaut is a large drilling machine built by the Chozo in SR388. Initially, it is located in Area 3, but Samus witnesses its activation before it moves away; it later tries to kill Samus in a frantic chase in Area 4. Finally, it confronts Samus in a boss battle in Area 6. Metroid Dread: The E.M.M.I. are a mix of this trope and Xenomorph Xerox. They were originally research drones sent by the Galactic Federation to investigate Planet ZDR over rumors of surviving X Parasites, only to then lose contact and be reprogrammed to hunt Samus down and extract her Metroid DNA for Raven Beak's use. Unfortunately for Samus, they are invulnerable to all of her standard arsenal (and the only weapon that can destroy them deactivates after being used on each one), are incredibly mobile, have really sharp hearing, are highly intelligent, and many of the later ones have abilities that make them even more dangerous. If they catch up to Samus and she fails to counter their attacks (which is very likely, since the timing for the counter is really tight), it's a Non-Standard Game Over.
