Bang-Bang

Bang-Bang is a type of enemy appearing in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror and Kirby: Canvas Curse. It resembles a gray and red rocket with a yellow nose, white wings, a pair of angry-looking eyes and, while on the ground, two yellow feet. Bang-Bang grants the Missile Copy Ability in both of its appearances. Bang-Bangs get their name from their explosive nature.
Game appearances[edit]
Kirby & The Amazing Mirror[edit]
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.

- 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.
