- “If I disobey that fat old fool K. Rool, it's the big sawmill in the sky for me, so pay up pronto and I can get my wooden butt outta here.”
- —B. Locker, Donkey Kong 64
B. Locker is a grouchy signpost that appears in Donkey Kong 64. As his name suggests, B. Locker prevents the Kongs from entering portals to each level, and only allows them to enter if they have enough Golden Bananas. B. Locker resembles a wooden signpost, and has a pair of eyes and three number panels on his chest. B. Locker works for King K. Rool, although unhappily, else K. Rool would end his life (implied by "the big sawmill in the sky").
Each level has a minimum Golden Banana requirement, which is indicated from the number panels on B. Locker's chest. By meeting the requirement, the Kongs can approach B. Locker, who then permanently leaves from the level's lobby, allowing them to enter the level. The different requirements include:
- Jungle Japes: 1
- Angry Aztec: 5
- Frantic Factory: 15
- Gloomy Galleon: 30
- Fungi Forest: 50
- Crystal Caves: 65
- Creepy Castle: 80
- Hideout Helm: 100
Trivia
- There is a glitch which allows Lanky Kong to pass through B. Locker without having the proper amount of Golden Bananas. Donkey Kong can also do this with his standard
attack, and Chunky Kong can do it using the Primate Punch.
