|
| ==Characteristics==
| | In Banjo-Tooie, The Twinklies play a role not so much as legitimate characters as objects to be collected in various [[:Category:Minigames|minigames]], such as the [[Dodgems Challenge]]. In such games, red Twinklies are worth one point, greens are worth two, and blues are worth three points. |
| Twinklies are sentient [[wikipedia:Christmas lights|Christmas lights]]. | |

| |
| In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', their first appearance, Twinklies are found within a blue present located in front of the giant [[wikipedia:Christmas tree|Christmas tree]] of [[Freezeezy Peak]]. Once the box has been opened with the [[Beak Buster]], the Twinklies request [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]]'s help to protect them from the [[Twinkly Muncher]]s as they try to reach and light up the tree.
| |
| | |
| When the Christmas tree is completely lit, the Twinklies tell the duo to "be a star" in order to find their reward, meaning they need to [[Flight|fly]] through the tree's star three times to make a [[Jiggy]] appear.
