HR-D3 is a large robot that has a drill as its hand on one arm and a normal robotic hand on the other. It also has a logo painted on its chest; in Mass Attac it is King Dedede's V-sign insignia but this was replaced with a unique symbol inside a circle in Return to Dream Land.
Game Appearances
Kirby Mass Attack
HR-D3 only appears in the Kirby Quest mode. It has King Dedede's insignia painted on its plating even though it shows no ties to Dedede in its next appearance.
Kirby's Return to Dream Land
HR-D3 only appears in Extra Mode and can be fought again in The True Arena, and in that mode it is fought after Metal General at the end of Egg Engines. If the fight with HR-D3 is lost, Metal General's fight is automatically skipped so the player can try again.
Battling Style
It attacks with its two arms as well as by spinning, shooting a laser, and trying to slam into Kirby. When its hands or body make an impact on the ground, stars appear that Kirby can spit back at it if he has no ability.
Trivia
HR-D3 was designed as a robotic fighter for King Dedede in the GameCube Kirby game. The D3 part of its name is a reference to Dedede's name, even though in its appearances in finished games, it only shows ties to Dedede in Mass Attack in the form of having Kin Dedede's insignia on it, which was replaced with a different insignia in Return to Dream Land.
