'''Droppers''' are clams in the ''[[Wario (series)|Wario'' series]], which appear in ''[[Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land]]'' and ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. They live, naturally, in underwater areas, and are named for their tendency to drop from the walls they cling to with spiked shells. Propelling upwards into their underside defeats them.

'''Droppers'''<ref name="manual">{{cite|title=''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'' instruction booklet|page=18|date=1994|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> are mollusk enemies that inhabit [[Kitchen Island]] in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]''. They are mostly found in [[Rice Beach]], but they can also be found in other areas such as [[Sherbet Land (world)|Sherbet Land]], where they can be seen frozen in ice blocks. Droppers are named for their abilities to drop from ceilings, which they are able to cling to with their snail-like underbellies. Their behavior and appearance are similar to those of the upside-down [[Spiny|Spinies]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They inch towards [[Wario]] while still on the ceiling and will come crashing down when he is within striking distance, causing damage upon contacting their spiky shells. To defeat a Dropper, Wario must wait for it to fall from the ceiling and then attack while it is defenseless. In this state, the creature can also be picked up and thrown at another enemy. Upon defeat, the monster will cough up a [[coin]].
