Why does he get an unused 3d model?

How do you animate the Death Egg Robot?

Should this be on two sheets?

@Alxelander222 No they don't, the game internally rotates them. Sorta like a lot of things in Yoshi's Island.

The spikes of the Death Egg Robot change sprite when it goes up and down?

DD stands for Double Decker I think.

What does the "DD" in DD Wrecker stand for?

Pretty sure in the first early screenshots showing the boss, half was the death egg-like thing, and the other half was the checkered wrecking ball....

@MarioMadness734: I'm guessing it was included because it was on the same sprite sheet as the DD Wrecker itself.

@blarhsnarf But in Mania it now has some function. (It is now rollable (Google Translate wants it to be roll-able or roll able), but you can get an infinite death with it and it is very broken. Why is it on this sheet by the way?)

@Random Talking Bush: No way! That's funny. In the original Sonic 1 in Debug Mode you could view that ball, I was hoping it finally had a use after all these years. I guess not :D.

@blargsnarf: That actually doesn't belong to the DD Wrecker, but it does use the chain sprite from that sheet. The ball itself is a separate object that can be spawned using the Debug mode.

The boss is literally two of the face balls connected by a chain and destroying one just makes it use a new attack pattern of bouncing.

@Blargsnarf
It's attached via the chain, isn't it?

Huh, what's the chequered ball below the DD Wrecker used for?

It looks like the Death Egg in Sonic the Screen Saver, but with spikes.

According to the data. The miniboss is called the Double Decker Wrecker.
(Or DD Wrecker as the filename says)
(Or DD Wrecker as the filename says)

SonicWiki never touched that name until Generations, and it had the weirdly-romanized names for the Badniks from Sonic Jam listed well before that.

@Doc von Schmelwick Nope, it's still officially called Death Egg Robot (as it had been since Sonic Jam)

Does this mean we can go back to calling it "Giant Mech?"
