	The '''[[Taranchula]] Black Metal Detector''' was produced by [[Videlectrix\|Videlectrix Kidx]] as a consolation prize on children's game shows. It is officially endorsed by Schenkel McDoo, who suggests that it could be used to "maybe find some coin!" It increasingly flashes a red light and gradually builds up a beat to an elaborate rock piece as it gets closer to metal. [[Strong Bad]] tried to use it to find ancient ruins, but he only managed to detect bottle caps and tin foil. Strong Bad also states that when he used it indoors, it microwaved [[Strong Mad]]'s eyebrows off.

-	In [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]], Strong Bad can use the same metal detector to find various metal and non-metal items hidden underground.

	There are a few in-game references to the fact that it is used in every episode.
