In ''[[Kirby: Canvas Curse]]'', Bang-Bangs appear in some levels, going towards Kirby. As they never walk in this game, their feet are not seen. Other than that, however, their appearance here is otherwise very similar to the way they appear in ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''.

*Their feet may be fold-away, which is could be why their latest appearance in ''[[Kirby: Canvas Curse]]'' showed them without legs and their method of attack in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'' removes their feet.
*It is possible that their feet are retractable, because their appearance in ''[[Kirby: Canvas Curse]]'' depicts Bang-Bang without feet. Additionally, their method of attack in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'' removes their feet.

Game appearances

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror

In their first appearance, Bang-Bangs initially walk on the ground, waiting for Kirby to come near. Once he does, they momentarily stop and, after a few seconds of aiming, proceed to attack by launching themselves at him. While airborne, Bang-Bangs relentlessly home in on Kirby. However, they have bad deceleration and cannot turn around very fast, which can be exploited to cause them to miss their target.

After traveling through the air for a set amount of time, Bang-Bangs begin to flash red and eventually self-destruct, harming Kirby if he is caught in the blast. Smashing into an obstacle or directly hitting Kirby likewise causes them to explode. Bang-Bangs have low health and can be destroyed by any attack.
