Missile shell

The Shell Missiles are extremely rare enemies from Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. They are only found in Barbos's Barrier, and they are shot by Barbos. The Shell Missiles have a purple cone-shaped shell and an octopus like body with two eyes. When they are shot by Barbos, they start to chase the player. Enguarde the Swordfish must lure them at the Lurchins that protect Barbos, and then smash it to defeat the boss.

Shell Missiles appear again in the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3, and they act just exactly like in the previous version.

Trivia

 * Like Koindozers, the Shell Missiles do not appear in the game's credits.
