The Ginpe is a line of penguin-like Badnik created by Dr. Eggman to serve as part of his robot forces in his efforts to conquer the world.
Overview
The Ginpe is a small Badnik modelled after a penguin. It has a rather simplistic, toy-like appearance to it; it has a blue and white body, waddles about on two legs and wears a grey top hat. The top hat is actually a weapon that fires energy projectiles.
History
Two Ginpe, along with several Akatentos were used by Tails and Belle to test some codes to make Badniks more benevolent. (#49)
When Sonic, Rouge, Omega, Tails, Amy, Cream and Big were abducted by a Giant Chopper to play Orbot and Cubot’s reality game show, an Akatento was among the assortment of Badniks acting as an audience. (Sonic the Hedgehog: Winter Jam)
Trivia
Ginpes, alongside the Akatentos, were Badniks that appeared in Sonic Advance 3.
