Appearances

Kingdom Hearts

The Guard Armor is the leader of the Soldier-type Heartless, such as Soldiers and Large Bodies. The Guard Armor is the second boss of Traverse Town, as well as the first to be fought with Donald and Goofy in the party. It was sent to destroy the heart of Traverse Town, but was defeated by Sora, Donald Duck, and Goofy. A second one was deployed to guard the Traverse Town keyhole from Sora, Donald, and Goofy, but was defeated once more. The second one, however, had flipped upside-down and formed Opposite Armor.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories

Sora fought the Guard Armor again, although it was only a memory and therefore not real. However, an Enemy Card was acquired after its defeat.

Segments

In the Olympus Coliseum, the Guard Armor (the Red Armor in Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix) was split into three segments, each featured in a separate seed in the Phil Cup. The 7th Seed featured the two feet (known as Hammerlegs). The 8th Seed featured the two arms (known as Gauntlets). Finally, the 9th Seed featured the torso and head (known as the Armored Torso).

The Hammerlegs and Gauntlets can move and react independent from the Armored Torso, and do not require the presence of the Guard Armor's main brain. However, the Armored Torso requires the head's presence to function. This trait is not shared with the Opposite Armor, whose torso can function independently but whose parts all require the presence of the head to work. Most of the armors attacks consist of ditaching it's arms and legs. It also uses its torso to crush Sora.

Guard Armor also appears in the Hades Cup, with all of the parts.

Trivia

  • Guard Armor may have been based on Rayman, a character owned by Ubisoft, who similarly has a floating head, hands, and feet, with a floating torso in the center.
  • The second Guard Armor and the one in Chain of Memories both appear after clock strikes.
