Bill Blaster Turrets function identically to regular Bill Blasters but have multiple cannons that can shoot multiple Bullet Bills from different directions. Bill Blaster Turrets can also spin their cannons around after each fire to shoot Bullet Bills from any angle. Aside from possessing multiple cannons, Bill Blaster Turrets also have arrows imprinted on them to indicate where the Bullet Bills will be fired from and are also adorned in spikes (which are harmless). Bill Blaster Turrets can possess anywhere from 1-5 Cannons.
