|Blowers attack by pushing the duo and their vehicle in their opposite way by spinning the fans in the center of their bodies. While not very dangerous, they can make travelling to certain destinations a nuisance, as their attacks can blow the vehicle out of its way. Originally, their name was going to be "Shouter".{{citation needed}}

|Cutters attack by hovering over the vehicle and trying to pull parts out of it. Once they stick into it, it can be difficult to get them out due to them being quite hard to properly aim at, making it easier to simply avoid them. They only try to pull one part at a time, and when succeeding, they fly back to repeat the process. Originally, their name was going to be "Stealer", but the name was changed after the developers realized they simply removed parts rather than stealing them.{{citation needed}}

It is unknown what their role and attacks would've been, and most information about them is simply speculation based off on their names and appearance. Tombstones with their names and concept art can be found in the [[Mad Monster Mansion]] exhibit of Banjoland.
Gruntbots not used in the final game. Tombstones with their names and models can be found in the [[Mad Monster Mansion]] exhibit of Banjoland, while portraits of them can be seen inbetween segments of the [[Click Clock Wood Tree]].

|Blockers would, based off on their name, have been able to block paths or the duo's vehicles. It can be assumed they would have moved by rolling, due to the size of their limbs. Despite being unused, a Blocker appears in a number of pieces of artwork alongside other Gruntbots that were actually used in the final game.
