As ''[[Metroid (series)|Metroid]]'' fans, it's very easy to recognize the face of the giant green, scaled boss: [[Kraid]]. His thus far appearances have been unforgettably legendary, appearing in only three ''[[Metroid (series)|Metroid]]'' games, all in two dimensions. There were, however, plans for a three-dimensional appearance for the first 3D game in the series released, ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]''.<noinclude> Unfortunately, a strict release date forced [[Retro Studios]] to cut this "Meta Kraid" out of the game.</noinclude> One and only one image of this Kraid has been released in Metroid's history.<noinclude> The image, to the left, shows Kraid in a cave-like area surrounded by [[Phazon]]. Because of this and Kraid's metallic helmet, fans speculated ravenously to this new Kraid's whereabouts, reaching to a consensus that the creature was infused with [[Space Pirate]] technology much like [[Meta Ridley]], hence naming it "Meta Kraid".

Meta Kraid, it is also speculated, is tied to certain other upgrades that also were planned to appear in the game, possibly the [[Screw Attack]] or [[Speed Booster]]. The creature also contains the same projectiles it has always fired, suggesting they may have been part of the battle. His claws were lengthened and Meta Kraid has received shield-like shoulder pads. Aside from these differences between Meta Kraid and the familiar Kraid, the most notable differences remain the presence of Phazon and Kraid's helmet. Its menacing helmet seems to blind Kraid, however, also possibly creating some battle element.
