—Funky Kong, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

Funky's Fly 'n' Buy is Funky Kong's business in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch port. It acts as the successor to Cranky Kong's Shop from Donkey Kong Country Returns, owing to Cranky Kong being one of the playable characters. Funky's Fly 'n' Buy is set from the side of a white, orange-striped airplane, which slightly resembles the Jumbo Barrel from the original trilogy. Like Cranky's Kong Shop, the Kongs can purchase items by using Banana Coins.

Funky has a shop in each of the game's worlds (except for the unlockable Secret Seclusion), although each of them carry the same selection of items at the same prices. Many useful goodies and toys can be purchased at these shops in exchange for Banana Coins, although none of the items are mandatory for 100% completion of the game, unlike in Donkey Kong Country Returns.

New to this game is that the interface for selecting an item allows the player to select a quantity of items before buying them all at once. This further means that Red Balloons are not stocked in varying quantities, as this menu obsoletes having different quantities of Balloons as items.

In the game's Nintendo Switch port, there is a Funky Mode that makes many changes in the game. One of them making Funky Kong a possible playable character. While the player plays as Funky, Funky's Fly 'n' Buy is run by a parrot named Tawks, who copies his dialogue word-for-word, and also gives him an employee discount. Another change is that the Green Balloon and Blue Balloon become Green Balloon Bundle and Blue Balloon Bundle. When either of these "Bundle" items is equipped, it activates three times in a level instead of once before being used up. While the Crash Guard was not renamed, it similarly activates three times in Funky Mode.

Items[edit]

Along with these items, Funky Kong also sells toy figurines. These can be bought with five Banana Coins each by selecting the Capsule Toy Machine. Many of these items first appeared in Donkey Kong Country Returns.

Gallery[edit]

The following gallery shows instances of Funky's Fly 'n' Buy throughout all of the game's worlds, except for Secret Seclusion where the shop is unavailable. The name of the world is noted underneath each image, followed in parentheses by the shop's numbering code (where "S" stands for "shop"). The numbering code is only displayed on the save file when the player quits the game immediately after visiting the shop in a world. Also presented among these images is the concept artwork of Funky's Fly 'n' Buy, which can be unlocked and seen in the Extras gallery after the player beats the game on Hard Mode. This artwork shows that the shop was originally going to be called Funky's Flights like Funky Kong's business in the original Donkey Kong Country.
