Octoman GX-AX Icon Pilot Quotes Machine Deep Claw GX-AX Icon


The Deep Claw is an F-Zero machine piloted by Octoman.

Description[]

The planet of Takora doesn't have highly advanced scientific technology, so it was a challenge for the Takoraians to make a quality racer. They bought a used F-Zero machine with standard balance capabilities and equipped it with a cockpit that would make it easy for a Takoraian to operate. The Takoraians changed nothing in terms of the machine's capabilities--they are set to standard, providing the machine with a relaxed feel. If this machine is ever to win a Grand Prix, it will likely need some serious adjustment. The machine bearing the number 08 could possibly reference Octoman possessing eight limbs.

Official Data[]

F-Zero AX description card (NTSC)
This is the first F-ZERO machine that the Takoras succeeded to build in their history. As the performance is well balanced based on the normal settings, it is obvious that they did enough research on other machines. On the other hand, the setting is nothing special, so it might need an extreme change in the settings to win the F-ZERO.
F-Zero GX Complete Guidebook (Japanese, translated)
Since the planet Tacora lacks advanced science and technology, he buys a used F-Zero machine and modifies the cockpit to make it easier for the Tacora aliens to drive. The machine is well-balanced with standard performance, but it seems to have settled at a mediocre level. To win the championship, a drastic setting may be necessary.
