'''Gold Waddle Dee''' is a variation of the common enemy [[Waddle Dee]], first appearing in the game ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad|{{KSS KMA}}]]'' and later making minor appearances in ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition]]''. As directly stated in its name, Gold Waddle Dee is gold-col{{o}}red, but otherwise looks identical to a regular Waddle Dee. In games it appears in, it usually serves as a rare and often times elusive enemy that yields a special reward upon its defeat.
