Tin Soldier
An enemy in a game that is immune to the players standard attacks but only appears in areas where the player is given the tools to defeat them

This is a reference to the PS1 game Spyro the dragon. The tin soldier being an enemy that appears in one area where the player is provided with a special power up that strengthens their fire attack to be able to take it down

Player 1: that thing looks heavily armored. I don't think normal attacks will work on this thing.

Player 2: I think there's some bombs over there that might be able to destroy it.
