Spinner Barrels are similar to the [[Blast Barrel]], although this type of barrel can actually be rotated and fired in any direction. However, some of them have a time limit (indicated by a number that appears on the barrel) to how long the [[Kong]]s can stay in the barrels. After this limit, the Kongs are launched automatically. [[Steerable Barrel]]s are similar, except that their aim cannot be changed, and the player can move them around instead.
