The "Badnik Tanks" were an unnamed (but very heavily armed) type of Badnik that appeared only once, in Issue 9.
Two of these large robots were patrolling the outskirts of the Emerald Hill Zone when the Omni-Viewer dropped Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails, Porker Lewis and Johnny Lightfoot six months into the future.
These Badnik tanks had humanoid upper bodies fitted to tank-like bases. They were very durable and could withstand Sonic's Spin Attack easily. Their arms and chestplates were fitted with laser cannons. They weren't very smart, however, and they ended up shooting each other whilst trying to shoot Sonic.
Trivia[]
- Two other tank robots appeared in Issue 67, Part 1 of The Return of Chaotix. These robots were modelled more closely on Robotnik's Troopers, and were mentioned as being prototype units for the Special Badnik Service.
