    —Game description

D. Riveters are Troll enemies in Skylanders: Giants, first appearing in Troll Home Security. They attack by blasting hot rivets from their rivet guns and, at close range, deploy timed mines before running away. The rivets deal low damage and can be reflected by certain Skylanders, such as Chop Chop with his shield. The mines explode after a short delay, damaging all entities within the blast radius, including other enemies.
