Probably Blitzrig because Blitzkrieg I believe means "Lightning War"(Hitler's battle tactic in WW2 of bombing the crap out of a country then invading it swiftly).
The one that hides behind the statue right? Yeah pretty weak.

No, he definitely says "Blitzkrieg," Nazi term or not.
And I have trouble with it, myself. Mostly because of the Servbots who come and try to drill your ankles while you're off the platform.

. . . are you sure? I wanna check now, but I don't have the time. Pshew... the guide says Blitzrig, the script says Blitztrig, and you say it's Blitzkrieg... Blitztrieg, maybe? ...that's what some boss guide at GameFAQs says... I dunno.

I'm pretty sure it's Blitzkrieg......that's how Tiesel pronounced it.

Yes, that is definitely how Teisel said it in English. Though I am not the world's greatest at reading katakana, what the Japanese player's guide I have names the boss sounds closer to Blitzkrieg than anything else that has been suggested.

I say Blitzkrieg. It makes sense. Other Bonne inventions have German names.

Do you speak German? I mean who's to say that Blitzrig or what-have-you isn't a word("lightning-something-else")?
Ah, whatever, y'all win. Two people say that's how Teisel pronounces it, and I can't check myself, so yeah. I give up.

I was playing through the game earlier (I have a copy and an old leftover save file from months ago) and I worked my way to the part with Teisel's Robot.
Pitch and Paragon pointed out some interesting things:
Paragon- Bonne Inventions with German Names [Gesellschaft= {I think} Soceity]
Pitch- Blitzkrieg's definition (Lightning War)
Alright, now I'm starting to stray....
Anyway, I got to the battle, and it does sound like Teisel says either Blitzkrieg or Blitzrieg (I'll have to play through again and listen to that particular conversation once I get the chance).
Also, the Robot only really begins an onslaught if you "Accidentally" destroy the town statue. (By "Accidentally" I mean if you goof up or shoot it on purpose...)
I can beat him without even leaving a scratch on the statue...
Quite Possibly one of the easier fights, save the fact that you have the Servbot drills breathing down your neck every 5 seconds; although if you crispy fry all three Servbots and make sure they stay in sight [you see tham constantly without them moving offscreen] the battle will (If even possible) become easier.

bolas right gesselschaft does mean society in german, and another natzi name used for a robot was Gustaff, it was the name for the natzis giant cannons mounted on train carridges it supposedly means big gun.
also, a good strategy for beating the blitzkreig is to jump onto a pillar, shoot, hide behind it until you get another clear shot, and shoot again. if you do it this way you dont land a single shot on the statue, and you dont get hurt yourself.

I used that strategy myself the first time I whomped on Tiesel, but the only problem I had was the annoying Servbot Drills that jumped up and tried to turn you into Swiss Cheese(lol Destroy the annoying (but seemingly funny) little buggers, then crispy fry them (.... Now I'm in the mood for French Fries... anyhoo....) Afterwards, stand on a pillar and (while not allowing them to move offscreen) BLAST TEISEL!!! BTW, it sounds like he says [glow=red,2,300]either[/glow] Blitzkrieg or Blitzrieg( I'm checking later to confirm this.)

Friends, fellow members, guests, lend me your eyes...
It has been confirmed... Teisel (As Feldinaut said earlier.. )
He yells: "Go, Blitzkrieg!"
And as to what Paragon said,
Yeah, it's funny to hear him scream at you "Don't you care?! You'll destroy it!!"
[glow=red,2,300]But[/glow], you have to pay to repair the Statue [only 5000 Zenny]

No, he definitely says "Blitzkrieg," Nazi term or not. And I have trouble with it, myself. Mostly because of the Servbots who come and try to drill your ankles while you're off the platform. You can dust him very easily even in very hard mode. I beat him in about under twenty seconds. You have to get rid of the statue, then blast him when he pops up. *coughgroundcrawlercough*

I managed to beat him without destroying the statue when I played through my copy of MML2 I recieved last December. It's a satisfying feeling, not that payments are unbearable or anything.
Anyways, I had no idea it was Blitzkrieg. I love the Bonnes and there German machinery! I did here him say the name before, but combined with the cockpit voice, it was hard to tell what he was saying.
Oh yeah! Does anyone know exactly what the machine is designed after? My guess is the Quetzacoatl (I know that can't be spelled right). It's got the snake like tail and the large wings, plus its used in a city that seems sort of Mayan itself. I don't know, that was just my theory.
