Donkey Kong Country Returns - 6-B Thugly's Highrise

It's Mugly's brother...who apparently takes lots o' steroids.

[@cactoos9793]

I love when games make you rematch an existing boss but stronger. Provides some replayability and makes the fight more challenging.

[@Triistar22]

Maaaan, this guy He wasn't all that difficult at first, but in Mirror Mode, it took me 40 tries to beat him!

[@ii_ii5331]

S(h)ame

[@evanholloway1692]

It’s a lot like Mugly but it’s harder.

[@NicholasVetter-sy8io]

Why is mirror Thugly harder?

[@chrispfri3s]

Don’t even get me started on getting a gold metal time attack

[@evanholloway1692]

That xylophone solo is dope

[@nizar70707]

Thugly didn't choose the thug life, the thug life chose him.

[@MatthieuArmengau]

Favorite boss with the first one of the game as well. Brings back a lot of fun memory with the xylophone as well.

My favorite would either be mole miner max or colonel pluck

@@yaboicatman4611 mine would be Tiki Tong

[@Lorsko-fk1gc]

Colonel Pluck is better

[@BackwardsMan]

I found out the hard way last night that Thugly can actually EAT you when he charges at you. Also, this music kinda sounds like DK's Jungle Parkway from Mario Kart 64

[@evanholloway1692]

Same for Mugly.

[@Birthnote]

1:45 -- Round 2... FIGHT!! 4:03 -- FINISH HIM!!

[@BlarggOMighty]

It's pretty much DK tradition. DKC had Very Gnawty and Really Gnawty, and Master Necky Jr. and Sr., DKC2 had Krow and Kreepy Krow, and DK64 had Army Dillo and Dogadon who WEREN'T EVEN RECOLOURS, so yeah.

I can't beat this boss without using banana juice

[@evanholloway1692]

I’m sure you can. But you can’t hurt him when he has his shell on. And it you jump on the shell when it’s heated up, you’ll take damage.

[@Lorsko-fk1gc]

Such a fun boss, probably my favorite

Yep

[@zino1500]

Being some skull tar filled bone yard waste land I first thought the boss would be some dead dinosaur

[@evanholloway1692]

I saw him on the back of the case in one of the gameplay pictures. I thought he would be in the boss of ruins, but it was actually Stu. I noticed a lot of bones in the picture. When I saw the cliff world, I didn’t find out by head to the boss. I figure it out beforehand. I was so excited to fight him.

[@supermariologanfan6546]

My favorite boss level

[@OpiupAlmaManiac]

now your one of them who can do all 22 hits with the nunchunk
