In | '''Hot Head''' is a common [[enemy]] in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] who first appeared ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''.

His mouth is funnel-shaped, similar to octopus-like enemies such as [[Flotzo]]. He has a bright orange mane which often flickers like fire, making his incendiary nature fairly easy to recognize. | |||

“ | This critter's body is literally made of flames, and he can spit fire to boot. There's little doubt that he must have a warm heart and a fiery personality, but no one is willing to get close enough to find out. | ” | — Figurine description from Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. |
Hot Head is a common enemy in the Kirby series who first appeared Kirby's Adventure. In every main-series game that he appears in, Hot Head gives Kirby the Fire Copy Ability when inhaled.
Hot Head is usually depicted as being orange-red, but is also found in other colors. He is about as tall as Kirby, and his physique consists of a main head-body with two stubby feet and no arms. His mouth is funnel-shaped, similar to octopus-like enemies such as Flotzo. He has a bright orange mane which often flickers like fire, making his incendiary nature fairly easy to recognize.
Attacks[edit]
Hot Head attacks Kirby by either shooting a single fireball from his mouth at Kirby, usually done from a distance, or breathing out fire, which is usually done if he is near Kirby. Neither of these attacks are particularly quick, but they can catch Kirby off-guard if he is not paying attention. The fireball attack in particular is capable of being fired at many different angles, making it more potentially accurate than Shotzo fire.
When Hot Head is controlled by Ghost Kirby in Kirby: Squeak Squad:
- Press and release B to shoot a fireball;
- Press and hold B to breathe fire.
Variants[edit]
- In Kirby: Squeak Squad, there is a Bubble ability-yielding counterpart called Bubble Head.
- In Kirby's Return to Dream Land, there is a super variant of Hot Head known as the Super Hot Head, which provides the Monster Flame Super Ability.
- In Team Kirby Clash Deluxe and Super Kirby Clash, there is a giant version called Colossal Hot Head, which fights in a tag-team with Colossal Waddle Dee and Colossal Kabu. In Super Kirby Clash, Colossal Hot Head also fights alongside Colossal Driblee in a few Quests.
