'''Buzzes''', also named '''Green Zingers'''<ref>{{cite|date=December 1996|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''[[Nintendo Power]]'' volume 91|page=59-61}}</ref><ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|date=December 1996|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 51|publisher=EMAP|page=20}}</ref> and '''Buzzers''',<ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|date=March 1997|publisher=EMAP|title=''Nintendo Official Magazine'' issue 54|page=46-50, 52-53}}</ref><ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|date=December 1996|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 51|publisher=EMAP|page=16 and 18-23}}</ref> are robotic wasps<ref>{{file link|Twitterpost Buzz.jpeg|Confirmed by former Rare employee Mark Stevenson on Twitter}}</ref> that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They have legs made of metal and a buzzsaw in their abdomen, although their body and wings appear to be organic. Buzzes are comparable to [[Zinger]]s in several ways, such as being one of the most common enemies in both of their game appearances. Buzzes have the same behavior and attacks as Zingers and are among the harder enemies to defeat. Similarly to Zingers, Buzzes have a standard type (which are green rather than yellow) and a less common red variant (once named a '''Red Zinger'''<ref>{{cite|date=December 1996|title=''Nintendo Power'' volume 91|page=59|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref>), which are mostly vulnerable to [[TNT Barrel]]s only. Buzz's name directly references the onomatopoeia "buzz," which can represent the sound made by bees while flying or the sound of a buzzsaw. Their name might have been derived from the "buzz" prefix of buzzsaw. | '''Buzzes''', also named '''Green Zingers'''<ref>{{cite|date=December 1996|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''[[Nintendo Power]]'' volume 91|page=59-61}}</ref><ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|date=December 1996|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 51|publisher=EMAP|language=en-gb|page=20}}</ref> and '''Buzzers''',<ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|date=March 1997|publisher=EMAP|language=en-gb|title=''Nintendo Official Magazine'' issue 54|page=46-50, 52-53}}</ref><ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|date=December 1996|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 51|publisher=EMAP|page=16 and 18-23}}</ref> are robotic wasps<ref>{{file link|Twitterpost Buzz.jpeg|Confirmed by former Rare employee Mark Stevenson on Twitter}}</ref> that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.
