"Beware of mischief makers in metal machines! Who knows what dark sorcery brings their metal limbs to life! It would be good to see the back of such menaces!"

― Book, MediEvil

Mecha Imps are huge robots that were built by the Imps to steal the crops in the Scarecrow Fields.

Strategy

As suggested by their name, Mecha Imps are huge robots controlled by Imps. You must first shoot the head of the monster with a ranged weapon, preferably the Crossbow. After you destroy its head, you have to face its back and shoot the Imp that controls it from behind. Beware, though, the robot can spin in place and the head spits fire!

-Imps have always had a chip on their shoulder about their less than imposing stature, but surely the creation of 40 span high robot representatives is a bit of an over reaction. The key to bringing these unwieldly creatures down is to dart through their legs and shoot out their metal heads. Once done, the adventurer's focus must switch to the pesky imp operators themselves.
