Bandana Waddle Dee, abbreviated B.W. Dee and nicknamed Bandana Dee (otherwise known as Red Waddle Dee or simply Waddle Dee) is a major protagonist and supporting character in the Kirby series. He is a Waddle Dee with a blue bandana. His weapon of choice is usually a spear, but sometimes he wields a parasol. Originally shown to be King Dedede's most loyal subject, he is now shown to be Kirby's closest friend and sometimes even assists him in battling the king.

Bandana Waddle Dee debuted in Kirby Super Star as the first opponent in Megaton Punch. His first major role was in Kirby Super Star Ultra, as the secondary antagonist of Revenge of the King. After this, he appeared as one of the four main protagonists of Kirby's Return to Dream Land. He also appeared as a supporting character in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, Kirby: Planet Robobot, Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, and Super Kirby Clash; as a major protagonist in Kirby and the Rainbow Curse and Kirby Battle Royale; and as a Dream Friend in Kirby Star Allies.

Additionally, a similar Waddle Dee character appeared as a supporting character in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. While several hints have been made that might suggest the two are the same character, this has not been confirmed.

Physical Appearance

Bandana Waddle Dee, just like other Waddle Dees, is a round orange creature with a peach circle in it, where the eyes and most of the rest of its body are located. He has also two yellow feet and small stubby arms. What differentiates him from others of his kind, however, is his blue bandana and choice of weapon, the spear. In Kirby Battle Royale, he uses a blue parasol with a star on top of it.

Personality

Bandana Waddle Dee is often portrayed as cheerful, as he often waves at Kirby and cheers him by giving him Assist Stars in both Kirby Triple Deluxe and Kirby Planet Robobot. He is also shown to be very determined but also coward in games such as Kirby Super Star and its remake, where in the sub-game Revenge of the King he got more and more scared every time Kirby defeated someone, but even after being spared of fighting Kirby by his king, he still battled him (and failed), what also shows his intense loyalty to King Dedede. In Kirby Battle Royale, Bandana Waddle Dee showed an intense fear before battling Meta Knight and King Dedede but even then still defeated both due to his determination but also trust in Kirby.

Kirby facing the bandanna-wearing Waddle Dee.

Kirby Super Star / Kirby Super Star Ultra

Waddle Dee made his debut as a minor appearance in Megaton Punch the Sub-Game, being the first opponent Kirby faces. Waddle Dee starts the battle by winking, waving if he wins, and fainting if he loses.

Kirby Super Star Ultra was Waddle Dee's first major appearance. He appears only in two modes: The Arena and Revenge of the King.

In The Arena, he replaces the regular Waddle Dee that appears as a joke Mid-Boss in the original Kirby Super Star. He fills a similar role as the original "mid-boss", but, unlike the latter, can move around.

Waddle Dee is battled in Level 5: The Revenge in Revenge of the King, and also has dialogue with the King concerning Kirby and Mid-Bosses. He can be inhaled, but provides no Copy Ability. He is exactly the same as a regular Waddle Dee, except has more HP and has a different sprite.

Kirby Mass Attack

Waddle Dee makes a cameo in the Meta Knight battle of the Strato Patrol EOS sub-game. He is seen cheering for him alongside Sailor Waddle Dee from Revenge of Meta Knight.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land

Artwork of Waddle Dee from Kirby's Return to Dream Land

Waddle Dee got an even bigger role in Kirby's Return to Dream Land, this time as a playable character.

Waddle Dee can use his spear to attack, identically to the way Spear Kirby can. Waddle Dee has the same 40 HP as Kirby. Unlike Kirby, Meta Knight or King Dedede, Waddle Dee doesn't fly, but he can make Infinity Jumps to keep up.

Kirby's Dream Collection

Waddle Dee appears during the intro cinematic for the game, to present the title screen along with King Dedede, Meta Knight and Kirby.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe

Bandana Waddle Dee as he appears in Kirby: Triple Deluxe

Bandana Waddle Dee appears in stages to give Kirby healing items to store on the player's touch screen. These items appear in Assist Stars. He usually gives them prior to boss fights or mid-boss fights. If the player has streetpassed with someone before they meet Bandana Waddle Dee, he will give better items. These include more powerful healing items, such as Energy Drinks or Maxim Tomatoes, and even Keychains. If the player has streetpassed with that person multiple times, the quality of the healing items get even better, and Bandana Waddle Dee may even throw a Rare Keychain to Kirby.

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse

Up to three differently colored Waddle Dees are playable in this game, and can assist Kirby by carrying him and tossing him, as well as spearing enemies that get in the way. They are controlled normally, unlike Kirby, who remains in ball form and must follow the stylus ropes.

Kirby: Planet Robobot

Bandana Waddle Dee performs the same function here as in Triple Deluxe, offering Kirby food items he can store at various points in the stages. Using Streetpass will improve the quality of the items as it did before.

Bandana Waddle Dee also appears as several stickers, including a doodle.

Team Kirby Clash Deluxe / Super Kirby Clash

Bandana Waddle Dee can be found in the village, overseeing the Gem Apple Tree. He is the first character that Kirby talks to in the game. He explains the basics of the village, as well as the situation. From that point onward, he oversees Gem Apple harvesting, giving Kirby the yield every time it's ready. He assumes the role again in Super Kirby Clash.

Kirby Battle Royale

A still from the introduction, as Kirby bumps into Bandana Waddle Dee.

Bandana Waddle Dee serves a prominent role in the single player mode, Dedede's Cake Royale. Kirby meets up with him on the way to the arena, finding him exhausted, having 'walked all night long' to get there. As such, Kirby agrees to carry him for a while down the trail. After Kirby deals with an enemy ambush, including another blue Kirby, the Warp Star appears to take them both to the arena.

From here on, Bandana Waddle Dee serves as an ally to Kirby in team matches. Unlike in previous incarnations, Bandana Dee uses a Parasol instead of a Spear.

While the player cannot play as Bandana Waddle Dee, a hatless Waddle Dee is available who plays much the same.

Kirby Star Allies

In Kirby Star Allies, Bandana Waddle Dee appears as the first available Dream Friend, recruitable from a Dream Palace without the need to unlock him. His moveset appears to be largely the same as it was in Kirby's Return to Dream Land but with a few tweaks, including the ability to have his spear receive elemental powers from allies, and a new attack Ground Thrust (added in Version 4.0.0). He has the same health as Kirby. Since Kirby cannot obtain the Spear ability in this title, Bandana Waddle Dee is the only user of this Copy Ability (Zan Partizanne of The Three Mage-Sisters, the Dream Friend, has a different style of spear combat).

In Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!, Bandana Waddle Dee's title screen features his Megaton Punch sprites from Kirby Super Star, his 3D artworks from modern titles, and his doodle sticker from Kirby: Planet Robobot (from Version 2.0.0 onward). His Dream Friend jingle is based off of the Disc Channel music from Kirby's Return to Dream Land.

Quotes from Bandana Waddle Dee in the Kirby series

Kirby Super Star UltraTeam Kirby Clash DeluxeKirby Battle RoyaleSuper Kirby Clash "Great King, Kabula has been defeated! What should we do?" "Relax, Great King! You must stay calm!" "Ah, Great King! He had an easy time!" "Kirby's approaching here, Your Majesty!" "Great King, pull yourself together!" "Fight!" "Great King, he beat Phan Phan, too!" "Yes, Your Highness!" "Go get him!" "Oh no! He beat everyone we have!" "Great King! Kirby made it here! W-what do we do?!" "B-but, Great King, I can't do it alone!" "Don't go, King!" "Great King!" "Hello, pink stranger! You must be Kirby. Thank you for stepping up to protect the Dream Kingdom. You're a real hero!" "What am I talking about, you ask? Colossal Waddle Dee has suddenly gone berserk over in the Grasslands... We don't know what to do! Can you stop the attack and save our kingdom?" "Press ↑ to check the Quest Board to your left. Your team can set out from there. Now get on your way...and be careful!" "Welcome back! Thank you for defeating Colossal Waddle Dee! But many more enemies continue to rampage throughout our land... We must rely on you, Kirby!" "Thank you for protecting everyone in the kingdom when Landia EX went berserk! Things may look peaceful now, but tough times are always around the bend... I suspect that more challenging battles are in your future! The only one who can save the world...is you! I believe in you, Kirby! Good luck!" "There's something else you ought to know... The Gem Apple Tree has matured! That means it's time for the first Gem Apple harvest. Here, take some!" "I expect the next harvest to be ready in 12 hours!" "Gem Apples are very useful, you see. They recharge your vigor so you can keep going on quests. They can also unlock quests that are closed to you. They can even be used for shopping at the Shoppe!" "Don't forget that you can press ↑ to speak to me or inspect what you find in the village. Oh, and the owner of the Shoppe was looking for you. Go on over and say hello!" "Here's something you ought to know..." "It's [day], [month]/[day]/[year]! Wait a second... That's odd! The village clock changed! You might notice that the time looks a little wrong, but don't worry... It'll be fixed after a single day passes! Remember, if you change the time on your Nintendo 3DS, the town clock changes too." "If you buy Gem Apples, the tree will grow. That means more apples with every harvest!" "If you complete Heroic Missions, you'll receive rewards! Want to know what you'll get? Check before you start a quest or in your profile. It'd be nice if I could get a reward, too..." "You can capture an image of the screen by holding down X and pressing L + R. I want to take lots of pictures and show them off to my friends!" "When you call on Wandering Adventurers, your Nintendo 3DS friends might come visit. What kinds of weapons and armor will they have? I can't wait to see!" "It's time to torch Tuesday! You'll get double the Fire Fragments from each quest." "Have a watery Wednesday! You'll get double the Water Fragments from each quest." "Fridays are phosphorescent! You'll get double the Light Fragments from each quest." "Urgh... Huh? Kirby? What are you doing here? Never mind. Don't have time. I'm late enough as it is! Oooh... Can't take another step. I walked all night long. But, I have to get to the cake of my dreams! All I can THINK about is that tasty, tasty cake! What, Kirby? Wait... Don't tell me you're after that cake too! Then could you do me a favor? Could you carry me to the stadium for Dedede's Cake Royale? Thanks, Kirby! You'll have to pick me up. Stand next to me, and then press R!" "What? A dead end?" "Waaah! Surprise attack! Watch out, Kirby!" "Are you OK, Kirby? What a relief! Huh? What's in that bush?" "He looks just as tough as you, Kirby! Be careful!" "Yikes! That crazy blue guy just attacked us out of the blue! If he was pink, he could have been your identical twin! There's something strange about all this, don't you think? Well, let's keep moving. We've got to get to that stadium!" "Hey, what's that up there? In the sky, falling fast!" "Oh! It looks like... Yes, it is!" "Wow! The Warp Star got us to the stadium in no time at all! Woo-hoo! Just got my energy back too. That feels great! I can walk by myself now. So I'll follow you to the entrance." "What? No one told us about that!" "You did it, Kirby! I knew you could." "But, King Dedede! Who are all these Kirby look-alikes?" "We have to battle copies of Kirby?!" "Kirby, you up for taking on all these other Kirbys? I mean, there is a cake at stake. The tastiest cake ever... Then let's do this! We'll get that cake no matter what!" "I can't wait for our first battle in Dedede's Cake Royale!" "That looks like the place where we need to check in. Let's head over there." "You won your battle! I won mine, too. Whew, barely! Some of these battles have us go solo, but some are team battles! When you do team battles, can I be your partner, Kirby? Yay! Thanks! OK! Let's battle our way to the top of the championship!" "I'll keep doing my best in our Team Battles, no matter what!" "Hey! I bet that blue Kirby in the woods came from that printer!" "You've hit the maximum points for this league, Kirby! So now we can try out for the next league with the Qualifier Battle!" "Looks like all we need to do is head through those doors. It's a lot of pressure, I know... But we'd better head in and see what we can do!" "We did it! We battled our way into the Bronze League! You're really great at this, Kirby. I'll keep doing my best too! Hope I can keep up with you. I bet it's going to get harder though." "I can't even imagine all the battles ahead of us, Kirby. But let's grab all the points we can in this Bronze League!" "I can't believe we got into the Bronze League. And I bet the league above this one will be even tougher!" "Whoa. The reporters are here. We need to look good!" "When you get a new ability, try it out in the Training Room!" "Your League Points have already hit the maximum, Kirby? Mine too!" "Then let's head through those doors for the Qualifier Battles." "We did it, Kirby! We got into the Silver League! I bet there will be even more kinds of battles here. We're a good team when we partner up, aren't we? All these battles... I wonder who thought them all up." "Hey, I bet there are new battles ready for us right now! I'm ready to fight no matter what they throw at us! Now, let's get out there and win that amazing cake!" "Mmm... That cake... My tummy's rumbling just thinking about it!" "I'd like to be interviewed too..." "I think it's fun to play in leagues we've already been in." "You can earn a lot of points in League Battles... But clearing each and every one is really a huge accomplishment!" "How many League Points have you gotten, Kirby? You hit the maximum? Hey, I just got there too. Then let's get to our Qualifier Battles. I bet we'll do great!" "We made it to the Gold League, Kirby. We did it!" "Meh... Meh... META KNIGHT?! You're competing too?!" "A battle against Meta Knight? Sounds intense..." "Don't underestimate Meta Knight, Kirby. He's one tough cookie." "Once you hit the Gold League, you'll REALLY get more fans." "If you’re having trouble with a battle, try a different ability." "It's hard to rack up points once you get to the Gold League, right? But chances are we're going to have to go up against Meta Knight. We'll probably be facing him in the Qualifier Battle." "I definitely wouldn't want to go up against Meta Knight alone. Luckily, I'll have you there with me. We'll take on the whole league, Meta Knight included!" "In order to beat Meta Knight, we need to bring our A game!" "We both maxed out our League Points, Kirby! Let's head into our Qualifier Battle! This one's in the bag, Kirby!" "Meta Knight! I knew we'd face you in the Qualifier Battle!" "A showdown with Meta Knight... It's kind of weird, but... ...I'm not scared. Sure, Meta Knight is tough. ut with you by my side, I'm not worried at all! LET'S GOOOOOO!" "We made it to the Platinum League, Kirby! I can't believe it! Even if it was a fluke... WE BEAT META KNIIIIIIIGHT!" "META KNIIIIIIIIIGHT!" "Meta Knight was pretty tough, huh?" "I've been worried this whole time that I've held you back, Kirby. But thanks for letting me join you in battle anyway! Because we made it to the final league! Now, let's claim the championship and pig out on tasty cake!" "I think everyone's seeing us in a different light now!" "I'll need to give a speech if we beat this league and the tourney! But I guess I'm getting a bit ahead of myself there." "Battles in the final league are really different and intense!" "We've gotten past the halfway point for this league. The final challenge for this league will be the Championship Battle. But I wonder who we'll be fighting in that battle..." "I mean, our rival could be anyone in the Championship Battle. But I guess we have a lot of League Battles left before then!" "Our Championship Battle isn't too far off now! That super-tasty, extra-deluxe, gigantic cake is nearly ours!" "Finally! The Championship Battle! You know what happens if we win this, right? Cake, cake, cake!" "Y-Your Majesty?" "Huh? He can't mean..." "Ah, what's the point now? He'll never let us win the tournament. You're right, Kirby. We can't give up now. We've come too far! Then let's head through those doors soon! It's time for our final battle!" "We did it! We really did it! We're the champions! Can you believe it, Kirby? We fought side by side through all those different kinds of battles. Thank you, Kirby! Now for our prize..that amazing extra-deluxe cake!" "But we won fair and square, Your Majesty!" "But that's not fair!" "That was spectacular, Kirby! I knew you had it in you. Finally, victory!" "Wh-what now, Your Majesty?" "Kirby! Come back! We don't have any idea what's in there!" "Kirby!" "KIRBY! USE THIS!" "Hello, pink stranger!" "You must be Kirby." "Thank you for stepping up to protect the Dream Kingdom. You're a real hero!" "What am I talking about, you ask?" "Hornhead has suddenly gone berserk over in the Seaside..." "We don't know what to do!" "Can you stop the attack and save our kingdom?" "Tilt ↑ to check the Quest Board to you left. Your team can set out from there." "Now get on your way...and be careful!" "Welcome back!" "Thank you for defeating Hornhead!" "But many more enemies continue their rampage throughout our land..." "We must rely on you, Kirby!" "There's something else you ought to know..." "The Gem Apple Tree has matured!" "That means it's time for the first Gem Apple harvest." "Here, take some!" "Oh, I almost forgot!" "The Shoppe owner was looking for you, so be sure to check in with him!" "Welcome back, Kirby!" "Huh. Looks like there are more types of new quests..." "They're called Party Quests, and they can be played alone or with other people!" "Check 'em out on the Quest Board." "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "I'm impressed you were able to defeat an enemy like that. I'd've been shaking too much to hold a weapon!" "I guess that's why you're the adventurer. Speaking of which..." "Have you rung the Adventurer Bell here in the village to call other adventurers yet?" "I hear they'll fight alongside you in quests, and even bring you gifts, so you should definitely give it a try!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "So who (or what) is that caped man that ran away? Do you know him from somewhere?" "Oh, and it looks like new quests have been added, so watch out for those!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "It looks like new quests have been added. Be careful out there!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "It looks like new quests have been added. Be careful out there!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "So the caped wizard was Taranza..." "I wonder where Parallel Nightmare is, then?" "Best be careful, Kirby!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "Did that rotten Parallel Nightmare run away from you AGAIN?!" "I bet you'll catch up to him at the Decisive Battlefield. Just a hunch..." "Be sure to prep your gear, the take him on!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "It looks like there are new quests...but you might want to raise your level before trying them out" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "Looks like the time has finally come to face Parallel Nightmare, the villain behind all this!" "I've...got a bad feeling about it, Kirby." "Be sure you come back to us!" "Hi again, Kirby! Welcome to Castle Village!" "Being here sure brings back memories, huh?" "Oh, never mind about that..." "Apparently the caped man was seen somewhere near this village." "Who knows what trouble he's up to even now? Better be careful as you go after him, Kirby!" "Oh—almost forgot..." "When you want to go back to Port Village, tilt←/→ at the edge of the village!" "You can go back and forth between the two villages as much as you like that way!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "It looks like there are new quests...but you may want to raise your level before trying them out!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Good job clearing that ordeal!" "I think the time has finally come to put an end to Parallel Nightmare, the villain behind all this!" "I have faith that you can beat Parallel Nightmare, but..." "I can’t help but think that it’s going to be tougher than any of your battles so far." "I’ve...got a really bad feeling about this, to be honest." "Please be careful out there." "I’ll be waiting with everyone else here in the village for your return!" "Welcome back, Kirby! You didn't get hurt, did you?" "I can't believe such a terrifying enemy would show up to our sleepy village!" "This kingdom used to be so peaceful..." "But I truly believe that you will save the Dream Kingdom." "Just make sure you come back to us in one piece!" "Kirby, you made it back!" "The caped wizard is gone, and peace is finally, truly restored to the land!" "You faced so many hardships. I know it wasn't easy..." "After all the battles you fought for the people of this kingdom, you have my gratitude and my respect." "Your deeds will surely go down in history. No, they'll become legends!" "For all you've done, I truly thank you!" "Oh, wait! Now that I think about it..." "Did you know that new Party Quests have been added?" "If you're looking for even bigger challenges, maybe you could take them on?" "I'm sure you'll overcome them!" "I'm rooting for you, Kirby!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Congrats on clearing that ordeal!" "Defeating an enemy as powerful as that... You really are something else!" "Oh yeah, it looks like there are more new quests! Be sure to level up and try them!" "Welcome back, Kirby! Congrats on clearing that ordeal!" "I can't believe you were able to defeat such a powerful enemy—you're just amazing!" "And hey, it looks like there are more new quests. You may want to level up before trying them." "Welcome back, Kirby! Congrats on clearing that ordeal!" "I'm incredibly impressed to see how strong you've become." "And that's good, because...the hardest quest of all has been posted." "This is the real final, decisive battle. Be sure you come back to us, Kirby!" "Woah! Welcome back, Kirby!" "I'm so relieved you made it back safe!" "You beat the ancient hero, strongest warrior in the galaxy! I guess that makes you the strongest now! "Do you think, maybe, in some far-flung future, the ancient hero might somehow come back?" "Well, if he did, I'll bet some young person like you would just step up and save the world again!" "Thanks SO much for everything you've done, Super Team Kirby!" "Get started by tilting ↑ in front of the Quest Board!"
