Flyers could potentially dodge the cannon indefinitely if they were nimble enough but could never hope to hurt the heavily armored back of Tarkus, though an attack on the the eyes could weaken it. I find it unlikely that getting blinded would do much to slow the Tarkus down, and would prove only to be a minor annoyance.
Your best bet is likely just a metal construct/being of equal or greater size who could avoid cannonfire and try to tip the Tarkus over. But it would not be easy
This is a good take.
Monster Movie god samurai could probably pick up Tarkus and throw him around but he so big he probably would get bored before Tarkus would just about face and keep fuckin up everything in his wake.

A volcano gives birth to a big ol Tarkus egg. Tarkus hatches and ruins everyone that stands in his way. ELP’s mortal nemesis the manticore stabs Tarkus in the eye with his scorpion tale. Everyone think ELP’s finest mech is finished, but he really just goes to the sea and becomes Aquatarkus who is triumphant over the manticore theme in the final track.

This song describes the story of a war machine called Tarkus (a mixture between an armadillo and a tank). This creature emerges from an egg that is beside a volcanic crater that is making an eruption. Then a cybernetic creature that looks like a futuristic station, this creature is destroyed by Tarkus' turrets. After that comes a creature called Iconoclast, that is a mixture between pterodactyl and a war airplane. This creature battles, but can't compare to Tarkus and loses the battle.
Another creature appears named Mass (a mixture of lizard, lobster and a rocket launcher), and after a battle Mass loses the battle and Tarkus continues his bloody adventure. After three victories Tarkus faces a mythological creature called Manticore (this creature has a human face, lion's body and scorpion's tail). Tarkus faces Manticore and is stung in his eye. Manticore forces Tarkus to go back, and Manticore defeats Tarkus, whose body falls down to a river. But though Tarkus seems to be dead you can't be sure because his turrets are not damaged.

What are you gonna dig? The Grand Canyon? Don’t think Tarkus is gonna find out about your little terraforming project?

This is a good point and maybe the best plan is to cover the grand canyon with brush, then have a sexy lady Tarkus on the other side to bait him into it.

Wrong! These lyrics from the title track describe everyone else's reaction to Tarkus vs. Larry's:
people run around as if they've lost their heads
everybody's headed for a ledge
but I don't feel it
not the way I guess they do
it feel so good to be marooned
to be marooned
Eventually the treads wear out and the beast sees one last thing before it dies

If Larry tried to fight Tarkus, he wouldn’t just be marooned, he’d be a moron, and even more ran over.

OK so
if Tarkus survives Larry Lee, then what happens when he charges full speed at the disappearing Lenny LeBlanc?
I doubt Tarkus would "Breakthrough" that wall as Lenny would say...
