Klobbers are common enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. At first, a Klobber looks like an ordinary [[barrel]], which they hide inside of, but when [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] approach a Klobber, it reveals itself and runs after the [[Kong]]s, attempting to repeatedly knock into them. As it runs, Klobbers makes a noise similar to the sound of tires screeching. Unlike most other enemies, Klobbers cannot hurt the Kongs on contact, but it can push them into a [[pit]] or a different hazard, including an enemy. A Klobber stops moving and retreats into its barrel for a short time if the Kongs either jump onto it or throw a projectile at it. The Kongs can grab the Barrel that the Klobber is hiding in and throw it in the manner of an ordinary barrel, which defeats the Klobber as a result. Klobbers can also be defeated if they touch a hazard that can damage the Kongs themselves, such as [[bramble]]s. | Klobbers are common enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.

Aside from [[Kaboom]]s | Aside from their explosive [[TNT Barrel]] counterpart, [[Kaboom]]s, Klobbers have two additional color variations of their own: yellow ones and gray ones with red eyes. The difference is that each time a yellow Klobber hits Diddy and Dixie, they drop a [[Banana Bunch]], while the gray ones cause them to drop a [[Red Balloon]] for each hit; for either type, the Kongs have to quickly recollect the items before they disappear. Both the yellow and gray Klobbers are less common, especially the latter type, and mostly just appear in later [[K. Rool's Keep]] levels and [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lost World]] levels. All three Klobber types appear throughout [[Klobber Karnage (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Klobber Karnage]]. In the end credits, Klobbers all appear under the "[[Kremling Kuthroats]]" enemy class. | ||

A Klobber makes a brief cameo in Volume 14 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. The last part of the book has a series of comics based on ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', including a 'find the differences' activity between several enemies, including Klobber. | |||

Klobbers make their second appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. Every Klobber acts like the standard green type, as the Game Boy screen does not allow for their distinct properties to be shown. Their titular level, [[Klobber Karnage (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Klobber Karnage]], also returns, but with an entirely different layout. Klobbers appear in "The Baddies" category of the end credits. | Klobbers make their second appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''.

Green Klobbers and [[Kaboom|TNT Bomber]]s also return in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. They are uncommon enemies, appearing only in [[Angry Aztec]], [[Gloomy Galleon]], and [[Crystal Caves]]. When encountered, Klobbers shout "C'mon" and can damage a Kong by running into them or if the Kong tries to directly attack them. A Klobber can be defeated from either shockwave attack, an [[orange]], or a musical instrument move. | Green Klobbers and [[Kaboom|TNT Bomber]]s also return in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''.

Klobbers reappear in ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]'', as the only other Kremling enemies other than Kritter. A Klobber's behavior involves it climbing on [[Peg]]s and trying to bounce into the Kongs.
