A Tiki Bomber

Tiki Bombers[1] are enemies that appear in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. They first appear in the Ruins world. They are wooden and shaped like a bongo, just like a handful of other Tiki Tak Tribe members.

Tiki Bombers have a similar appearance to Tiki Torches except that they are shrouded in blue flames instead of red and are also slightly smaller. Tiki Bombers have the unique ability of simultaneously releasing a fireball both left and right. Donkey Kong can still blow at a Tiki Bomber to temporarily extinguish its flames, although its fireball attack makes this more difficult. Tiki Bombers have an uncommon variant that throws the fireballs to the ground in an arc. While its flames are doused, Tiki Bombers are vulnerable to any attack, including a jump, a roll attack, and throwing a DK Barrel at it.
