Dragon Quest monster Hardy hand

Art by Akira Toriyama Japanese メタルハンド Romaji Metaru hando First appearance Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation Old localisation MtlGoopi

The hardy hand is a silvery counterpart of the muddy hand monster, which has preserved its putrefaction for posterity in a liquid metal coating.

Debuting in the Game Boy Color port of Dragon Quest III, it is one of the few bonus Monsters from that version of the game to be added to later titles.
