 From Game Informer:

As daunting as the opposition is, Shepard may get some help from unexpected places. In one story-boarded sequence we saw, Shepard's is in a column of Krogan vehicles as an advancing Reaper devastates the surroundngs. A damaged Turian fighter crashes into the column, destroying Shepard's vehicle as the hulking foe moves forward. On foot and faced with a hopeless battle, all seems lost until a Thresher Maw bursts from ground and begins grappling the Reaper. Shepard runs underfoot as the two titanic creatures clash overhead, and the Thresher Maw gains the upper hand by constricting itself around the Reaper and pulling the machine under the sand. The struggle appears to be won, but then lasers begin bursting through the ground, indicating that Shepard should probably get out of there as fast as possible.


Some information from Cerberus News

11/12/2010 - Photo Revives Debate Over Tuchanka's "Colossal Thresher Maw"
“A photo taken by Clan Ravanor miners during a drilling operation on the krogan homeworld of Tuchanka is reigniting debate on the existence of a colossal thresher maw. The photo, now being viewed widely on the extranet, adds to a long line of evidence that skeptics call an old and treasured hoax -- and believers call irrefutable proof. For centuries, krogan settlements bordering Tuchanka's deserts have told stories of entire clans swallowed by this colossal thresher maw. While locals claim the ancient creature is real, no outside sources have confirmed the beast's existence.”


Who wins? Your rates!

If that sequences makes it into the game and we get to watch it, I think we win.

Wouldn't a Reaper be a lot more massive than a Thresher Maw though?

Technically. But the Reaper would have an artificially low mass due to Mass Effect Fields in order to stay air born while planet side.

Probably it's the greatest Thresher Maw ever on Tuchanka from Cerberus News.

Not even a contest Shep kills a Maw on foot while a Reaper takes an entire fleet to take down. Maybe with a villain decay.

I have been waiting to use this for a while so just indulge me for a bit.

Has anybody noticed that a few space-themed media have hade a giant worm within it's realm of existence?
Mass Effect: Threasher Maw
Star Wars: Blenjeel Sand Worm
Furutama: Slurm Queen
Dune: Sand Worms
I first noticed this when I was reading Dune for a literary class in college when it mentioned giant sand worms. I instantly thought of Threashers and went online to see if any other space-themed media had giant worms and that is what I found among other things.

Back on track: In about any kind of fight I can think up between threashers and reapers leaves the reapers flying away with worm guts everywhere.

I can imagine the Reaper going: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

There are quite a few that use it. Not just space-themed.

Rogue Galaxy (great RPG) also has giant worms in a desert planet, they were the size of a Reaper too (I think bigger). That game looks like ME mixed with World of Warcraft.

Know what the best part is?

Whoever wins, they'll get their ass kicked by Shepard. You know it's true.

It's obvious the Reaper wins, he just gets blindsided and momentarily subdued. The Thresher slows it down, but that's all.
