(Is noting that the defeat of two Ankylosaur things within the same superfranchise look similar notable enough for trivia?) |

'''Ankirons'''<ref>''Wario World'' instruction booklet, page 31.</ref> are generic enemies that [[Wario]] encounters in the [[Nintendo GameCube]] game ''[[Wario World]]''. Ankirons resemble huge armored turtles with [[cannon]]s sprouting out of their shell. In fact, Ankirons are so huge and heavy that all they can do is turn in place. Ankirons fire [[Bomb (item)|bomb]]s at Wario, who can throw the bombs right back. They explode after a short time, however. Ankirons can also hide in their shells to protect themselves against Wario's powerful punches. If Wario continues to punch a protected Ankiron, it comes out (though still unable to be damaged) and fires its ammunition (depending on species) in all directions. In addition, as Wario comments in the game's North American instruction booklet, these enemies smell like feet. | '''Ankirons'''<ref>''Wario World'' instruction booklet, page 31.</ref> are generic enemies that [[Wario]] encounters in the [[Nintendo GameCube]] game ''[[Wario World]]''.

Other varieties of these enemies include Skeletal, Circus, Ice, Bullock, Party Animals<ref>''Wario World'' Nintendo Power Player's Guide, page 86.</ref>, and Mummy Ankirons. Aside from looks, Skeletal, Circus, and Ice Ankirons behave exactly the same way as normal Ankirons. The Party Animals can fire many bombs at once, while the Bullock and Mummy Ankirons shoot flaming bombs that damage Wario on contact until they cool off. However, the Bullock and Mummy Ankirons behave differently when they're attacked while protected, with the latter firing fiery bombs, while the former only fires normal bombs. | Other varieties of these enemies include Skeletal, Circus, Ice, Bullock, Party Animals<ref>''Wario World'' Nintendo Power Player's Guide, page 86.</ref>, and Mummy Ankirons.
