'''Mincers''' are spiky [[tire (object)|tire]] obstacles that debut in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Mincers have the same movement patterns as [[Zinger]]s, either moving continuously in a set pattern or remaining idle on either the ground or in mid-air. Mincers are entirely indestructible, including from [[Animal Friend]]s and a [[TNT Barrel]]. Mincers are first encountered in [[Torchlight Trouble]] and appear in some of the later [[level]]s, most of which take place underground. However, Mincers also appear in an underwater stage, [[Poison Pond]]. Mincers lastly appear in [[Manic Mincers]], of which they are the main obstacle and titular feature.
'''Mincers''' are spiky [[tire (object)|tire]] obstacles that appear in both ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]''.


Mincers made their second and only other appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', acting no differently than in their debut appearance. They appear in levels such as [[Reef Rampage]], but also prominently within [[Spiky Tyre Trail]]. They usually appear in [[Bonus Area|Bonus Levels]], such as in [[Deck Trek]] and in [[Button Barrel Blast]], their last level appearance.
== History ==
===''Donkey Kong Country'' ===
In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Mincers appear in some of the later [[level]]s, starting with [[Torchlight Trouble]]. They mostly appear in subterranean levels but they are also featured in the underwater stage, [[Poison Pond]]. Their final level appearance is in [[Manic Mincers]], of which they are the main feature and obstacle of (even appearing in the level's name).
 
Mincers are completely indestructible and cannot be defeated by any attack, including those from [[Animal Friend]]s and a [[TNT Barrel]]. This means that [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] must simply avoid them.
 
Mincers share the same movements with [[Zinger]]s, as they either move continuously in a set pattern or stay idle either on the ground or in mid-air. The only functional difference is Mincers' absolute invulnerability. In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', they are replaced by red Zingers.
 
===''Donkey Kong Land''===

In ''Donkey Kong Land'', they have the same role as they did in ''Donkey Kong Country''. The level [[Spiky Tyre Trail]] also prominently features them. They usually appear in [[Bonus Area|Bonus Levels]], such as in [[Deck Trek]] and in [[Button Barrel Blast]], which is the last level they appear in.
