3D Helmet Cannon

This article is about the item in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. For other uses, see 3D (disambiguation) and Cannon (disambiguation).

The 3D Helmet Cannon[1] is an item in Kirby: Triple Deluxe.

When Kirby puts on the 3D Helmet Cannon, he immediately begins rapidly shifting from foot to foot. The helmet's cannon fires automatically into the background (or foreground, if Kirby switches planes with a 3D Warp Star). The firing rate isn't as rapid as a Crackler because of the distance the cannonballs must travel. These projectiles explode on impact, defeating enemies and destroying giant metal blocks. Kirby cannot use his regular moveset with the cannon.

As the item's time runs out, the helmet flashes green and then red. Kirby's feet move faster and faster until the helmet's cannon explodes. The helmet then breaks.

Appearances

  • Lollipop Land: 3D Helmet Cannons make their debut here, being featured in the third stage where Kirby can use them to blast enemies in the opposite plane to his current location.
  • Wild World: 3D Helmet Cannons appear in the penultimate room of the fifth stage, being used to knock Treasure Chests onto the conveyor belts in the opposite plane and to destroy obstacles clogging up that belt. Kirby can then go to that plane by using a 3D Warp Star at the end of his own belt to get his prize from the chests.
  • Royal Road: A 3D Helmet Cannon appears in the fifth stage, where it is used in one of the rooms containing the trapped People of the Sky and can be used to destroy durable blocks, knocking down items and the key that leads to one of the Sun Stones.

Physical Appearance

The 3D Helmet Cannon is a turquoise helmet with a star logo on the back. It has a blue cannon muzzle on the front.
