Diddy Kong and Winky from Donkey Kong Country with vertex colors 3D print model

Diddy Kong is a playable character in Donkey Kong Country as well as both its first and second remake. He assists Donkey Kong as the second player and sidekick. Donkey and Diddy Kong have the same basic abilities, such as jumping, running, and rolling. Diddy has his own rolling move, Cartwheel Attack, which he can use to defeat enemies or briefly in midair to gain some momentum. Compared to Donkey Kong, Diddy is more agile, capable of jumping higher, moves faster, and holds a barrel in front of him rather than above his head. However, Diddy is weaker, not only from throwing barrels a shorter distance, but because he cannot defeat Krushas and Klumps by stomping them, and he has to stomp an Army twice to defeat it.
