Field Knuckle

The Field Knuckle (or Field Wall) appears to be a suit of polymer at a first glance, but has the durability of metal. It was owned by Rand Apronika prior to the events of Samus and Joey, and his son Joey discovers it buried in his father's grave with a note of empowerment. The suit features plated knuckles that protect even Joey's exposed fingers, and becomes his new outfit, featuring longer sleeves and shoes resembling modern high tops, but which seem to lack the six wheels Joey's old shoes had.
With the Field Knuckle, Joey can create a field wall that protects him from hazards such as bullets when his armor cannot. Unfortunately, these bullets can ricochet towards civilian targets, as they almost did on Brigandia (although Samus Aran shot the bullets down, saving the bartender and waitress "Cupcake"). The knuckles are capable of creating a protective magnetic field as well, which Joey equips by pressing his knuckles together. This saved him and Diesel from being crushed by debris, and was one of the few materials that could block the scythe of Zegan Doh. Joey continues to use them in Metroid EX, including as an adult Federation Police Force officer in the epilogue, when he uses it to kill a hostage taker and save a young boy.

Idzuki Kouji created the Field Knuckle for Joey when he did not want the character to carry a gun or sword as his primary armament. The gloves' offensive and defensive capabilities allowed him to hold his own beside Samus.Idzuki Kouji (moonup777). 出月とメトロイド⑤ ¶ 35周年を盛り上げるべく ¶ 不定期更新22 ¶ メトロイドというハードタイトルに少年を絡める事に成功したが、そのジョイの設定に出月はこだわった。 少年に銃や剣を持たせるのは絶対に嫌だったので足手まといにならない様に攻防一体となった特殊なグラブを考えた。 11 April 2021 8:02 a.m. Tweet. https://twitter.com/moonup777/status/1381216016743600128
