Walking TNT Crates[1], or TNT Rats, are small rat-like enemies carrying TNT crates and are found in Icy Peak and Scorch's Pit. In Icy Peak, they are seen standing on frozen ice ponds. If they see Spyro enter the ponds, they will charge at him by sliding their boxes in his direction while riding them in an attempt to collide with him; while doing so will obliviously damage Spyro, it will kill the rats as well. Spyro can either flame the rats while on the ice, flame them while off of the ice if he’s close enough without provoking them, or he can quickly exit the ponds to let them kill themselves and avoid damage if he had already entered the ponds earlier.
In Scorch's Pit, the Walking TNT Crates are summoned by Scorch in which they will simply run at you with the box of TNT until the crates eventually explode on their own. Charge away from them to avoid the blasts.
Trivia[]
The Walking TNT Crates’ attack is very similar to the Rocket Pigs from Metropolis, wherein they launch themselves toward Spyro to hit him at the cost of killing themselves.
