Variant of Koin

The Koindozer Klan[1] are magenta "cousins" of Koin encountered in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! Koindozers are encountered in only one level, "Koindozer Klamber," in Kaos Kore. Koindozer's name is a portmanteau of Koin, a related enemy, and "bulldozer," a vehicle commonly used at construction sites. These enemies do not appear in the game's credits.

Unlike Koin, Koindozer tries to attack the Kongs, in addition to blocking their attacks. Koindozers chase down the Kongs and try to bash them into an abyss, or other enemies, with their trash can lids. Like Koin, Koindozers can be used as platforms by the Kongs. Koindozers cannot be defeated, even by Steel Kegs.

Profiles[edit]

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble![edit]

“The Koindozers will relentlessly shove you if you stand next to them. Like Koin, you can stand directly on top of them and use them as a platforms.[sic] Dixie's Helicopter Spin makes it easier to come to a pinpoint landing directly on their shields. Sometimes you'll need to lure the Koindozers into a position where they can help you reach a higher platform.”
