History Characters / DrCraftyAntagonists

** The similarities aren't quite as pronounced as those between Nurse and Screw, but Mindstein is an eviler answer to Crafty. Both are tall, thin {{Mad Scientist}}s who revel in their villainy and are accompanied by a short, plump assistant. However, Crafty is a fundamentally good person ''acting'' the part of a mad scientist; his relationship with Nurse is founded upon genuine, mutual love and understanding. Mindstein ''isn't'' acting; she flaunts her moral bankruptcy through almost everything she does, and she only has Screw in her life thanks to gutting her of her humanity, turning her into a mindless drone.

* HumanDisguise: Throughout Sonic Month, he's perfectly capable of disguising himself as Crafty, even delivering the original's opinions on matters. It's only when the other co-hosts find the real Crafty after their episodes are done that they realize something is up...

* CorruptedCharacterCopy: Metal Crafty borrows a lot of concepts from [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Metal Sonic]]--specifically how he appears in ''Sonic Heroes.'' Both are robotic duplicate villains created by their series' main antagonists, and each is based on their works' main protagonists. However, whereas Metal Sonic fully believes he's the real Sonic and wants to prove his superiority through world domination, Metal Crafty recognizes himself as his own person and simply wants his basis ''dead.'' This is due to Mindstein conditioning him to hate the real Crafty and his show. It's reached the point where that hatred evolved into crippling trauma, which Metal Crafty firmly believes he'll only heal from if he eliminates its sources.

Mindstein is the genuine article, so rotten to the core that she gutted Screw of her humanity to keep her around.

Provoked by the Crafty Crew's dare in "We're Back! A Crafty Story," Mindstein sets ''Project: Eisen Schlau'' into motion. The result is yet another powerhouse in her ranks: Metal Crafty, a direct answer to the Crew's Sonic Month. This robotic duplicate of Crafty has been subjected to non-stop reruns of Crafty's show, so much so that he deeply loathes the crew and is out for their blood. Despite his murderous hatred, Metal bides his time throughout Sonic Month, acquiring data on every single member of the Crew to mimic their abilities for his own ends. He has a much more tempestuous relationship with Mindstein than Screw does, as he's unafraid to question her decisions and will even occasionally lash out if he doesn't get his way.\\

* {{Expy}}: Metal Crafty is a blatant reference to [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Metal Sonic]], being a robotic duplicate of their respective works' main protagonist. He draws quite a bit of inspiration from how Metal Sonic is portrayed in ''Sonic Heroes,'' specifically how he spends Sonic Month copying the DNA of the Crafty Crew to gain their powers. Their outlooks on their respective bases are where they differ, however. Whereas Metal Sonic wants to overtake and replace Sonic, Metal Crafty wants ''absolutely nothing to do with the real Crafty'', only wanting to defeat him so he never has to deal with watching his show on repeat ever again.
