Security Laser

Laser Cube is an enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby: Planet Robobot.

Physical Appearance
Laser Cube is a black cube with rounded edges and corners. It has dull, glowing red and blue marking on its exterior. Its sides are marked with power symbols. Inside the cubic shell is a laser blaster shaped like a hollow cylinder.

Kirby: Planet Robobot
Laser Cube appears exclusively inside research facilities and Access Ark. It acts as a security sentry for the Haltmann Works Company. When Kirby comes within range, the cube opens up and projects a pink laser beam outward. These beams are powerful enough to damage Kirby if he touches one, but not powerful enough to break Blocks. While most Laser Cubes hover motionless in midair, others tilt back and forth, causing their beams to move with them.

Laser Cube often retracts back into cube form when Kirby is out of range. Additionally, Kirby can use Ninja's Clone Technique, Leaf's Leaf Hide, and ESP's Vanish attack to temporarily trick the enemy into retracting. Laser Cube hovers in the background or foreground--out of Kirby's reach--in all stages except Stage 4 of Gigabyte Grounds. Here, Kirby's Jet Robobot Armor can destroy the enemy in a few shots.
