Twinkle Popper drops nothing in the game's drop rules.

Arachnid mine layers defending the stardust pillar

The Twinkle Popper is a heavy celestial arachnid that patrols the lunar terrain beneath the Stardust Pillar. Stomping forward with 800 life and 40 defense, its bulky chitinous body deflects light weaponry with ease. Colliding with its armored carapace inflicts 70 base contact damage as it charges toward intruding explorers.

Detonating rolling twinkle mines before swarm encirclement

As it engages targets, the Twinkle Popper ejects clusters of glowing spherical minions called Twinkles from its back. These luminous explosive mines roll along the ground toward the player, detonating violently upon impact. Players must eliminate the mines before they accumulate or jump over them to strike the main body directly. In Master mode, its health scales to 2,400 life with 210 damage, requiring piercing explosives to clear both monster and brood.
