'''Topper''' is a {{w|carrot}} and one of the training enemies on [[Spiral Mountain]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. Its purpose is for [[Bottles]] to teach the [[Claw Swipe]] ability to [[Banjo]]. He is tall and orange with green leaves on his head. The one in the training area just hops in place waiting to be attacked and gives no damage when touched, but all of the other Toppers in [[Spiral Mountain]] will slowly hop towards Banjo and do damage. Topper's name is a possible reference to {{w|Carrot Top}}.
'''Toppers''' are bouncing, eyed {{w|carrot}}s that are enemies on [[Spiral Mountain]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. Initially, one appears for [[Bottles]] to teach the [[Claw Swipe]] ability to [[Banjo]]. This one just hops in place, waiting to be attacked, and bounces Banjo backwards with no damage when touched. After all of the initial attack moves are learned, Toppers begin to appear elsewhere in Spiral Mountain, along with [[Bawl]]s and a [[Colliwobble]]. Unlike the first Topper, these Toppers slowly hop towards Banjo and deal damage upon contact. A single Topper appears in the ending sequence as Banjo and [[Kazooie]] leave [[Grunty's Lair]], and is defeated by Banjo after Kazooie points it out. Topper's name is a possible reference to {{w|Carrot Top}}.


It reappears as a fetch item in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. A Jinjo says he dropped a carrot in the water on [[Jiggoseum]]'s Act 4 and asks Banjo to retrieve it.
