~ Mike O. on Tubular Bells to Hot Pants. |
While having no physical form, Tubular Bells allows Mike O. to inflate various metal objects as if their are balloons, eventually shaping them into floating minions that follow Mike O.'s commands. Once inflated, the balloon animals he summons can squeeze through gaps with ease, can be modeled into certain shapes, are able to do simple tasks, and attack by burrowing into foes before reverting back to their normal form (with these attacks being able to be powerful enough to break down walls). The shape of the object inflated seems to possibly have an effect on the object's shape, with "dogs" being made out of nails and "swans" being made out of shutters.
