A Waruda fighting machine of the Waruda Raider series. The core module consisting of the cockpit and tail unit is called the “Bug Pod”, and the Larva unit consisting of the chain cutter arm, arthropod legs, and wing module are combine with it to form a giant insect-like form, code name is “Bug Head”. Despite its massive size, it moves with great agility, and uses its cutter arms to unleash rupture attacks. As davastating as these are, the Bug Head’s greatest offensive weapon is its ultra-high-temperature blast beam that fires from the jaw of its head, and it is thought to serve as a giant mobile turret for Waruda’s side. The blast beam is characterized by a large wing-shaped unit that expands and fires while collecting energy in some way, and its firing duration lasts up to 60 seconds.
The unmanned combat drone, codenamed “Beserk”, is a bipedal form mecha typically deployed with the main “Bug Head” unit. It also serves to protect the “Bug Head” from attacks in its blind spot, created while firing its blast beam.

Reinforced form combined with the Waruda suit
The most fearsome function of the Waruda Raider is its amplification and strengthening mode by combining with the Waruda suit, named “Evolize”. The power of the Evolized Waruda suit is amplified several times more than the normal suit, and the difficulty of completely defeating it increases dramatically. There are countless patterns of bonding forms that have been confirmed, from bonding with a single Pod or Suit to bonding in a multiprize infinite state, and the individual identification code names vary by region and unit and are not consistent. The following two forms are relatively common code names.
The Waruda suit is sold separately.

Waruda Raider Machine Series
Separate and Combined Mobile Machine Waruda Raider
The Waruda Raider (or simply Waridaraider) is the identification code name for a new class of combat machine that was not confirmed during the First Earth-Waruda War.
Since the attack of the Waruda Mobile Infantry Machine (a.k.a. Waruda Suit), the existence of the Waruda Raider has been gradually confirmed, made difficult since its form at the time of report is inconsistent and differs remarkably from case to case. It has a silhouette reminiscent of reptiles, insects, crustaceans, etc. It is also used as a general term for unit separation and coupling type mobile machines.
The Waruda Raider, like the Waruda Suit, is composed of a core module “pod” that holds the pilot and a maneuvering unit called the Larva, but the structure of the machine is very different from that of the Waruda Suit. Each unit, such as the ring-shaped small Larva, block module, and armament, can be quickly separated and recombined, and while generating some kind of energy field with luminous discharge similar to the generation of an optical field, it moves freely in space and joins with the target part similar to a magnet attracting iron. It has a very high fighting potential on its own, and even if the unit that makes up the machine is severely damaged, the aforementioned separation and bonding system allows it to instantly reassemble the unit and repeatedly attack without stopping.
