The Mecha Panda is the tenth VIP animal.
Appearance[]
The Mecha Panda shares a body similar to the Panda. Its body is made of entirely of mechanical parts, (hinting the name, Mecha Panda), white with dark grey patterning resembling that of a rocket ship. Its eyes are replaced by glowing cyan plates, and a small circular yellow light sits in the middle of its forehead. On its sides are plates attached from its shoulder to its rear, connected by a blue hinge and featuring the number 10. Decals on this plate include a flowing yellow and grey line, giving the appearance that it is a ribbon twisted around itself, and two small yellow tabs. Dark grey tubes are also attached, leading to its rear. The Mecha Panda has two sets of wings pointing diagonally upwards; one set is cyan, with a grey edge with small white stripes; the other is white with a grey leading edge, featuring two small yellow tabs.

Eats more than a garbage truck.

- Spend enough real money in the game to reach VIP level 10 (amount varies per country and currency).
Abilities[]
- Mecha Panda can bump into small animals to stay happy
- Ride for an extra 6s before Mecha Panda gets angry[1]

Behaviour[]
- When ridden: The Mecha Panda starts slow and can bump small animals, which allows the player to ride it for longer. As it gets closer to becoming angry, it speeds up.
- When angry: The Mecha Panda slows down, bucks the player up and sits on the player, similarly to hippos.
- In habitat: The Mecha Panda mostly remains curled up, sleeping. It will occasionally look up while still curled up, and let out a small yawn.
- Selected in habitat: The Mecha Panda stands up and lunges, roaring from right to left.
Trivia[]
- The Mecha Panda is a part of the Mecha Team, also including the Mecha Crane and Mecha Pangolin. 'Mecha' derives from the anime/manga genre of Japanese popular culture, typically involving fighting robots.
- The robotic look of the Mecha Panda reflects this.
- The description references the fact that pandas eat around 20-40 pounds of bamboo per day.[1]
- It is structured in the same way as the Mecha Crane's and the Mecha Pangolin's, further establishing the unified nature of the Mecha Team.
- The number 10 on the Mecha Panda's side may reference how the Mecha Panda is unlocked at VIP level 10.
