This needs some investigation. |
It's Monkey vs Monkey in an epic bloon-popping clash! Now on the go!

Unused Items#
In the update version 2.3 (March 2015) of the game, an unused folder was added named SpecialtyDefinitions, which is the same name as the folder in Bloons TD 5 for holding Specialty Building data. However, the folder here is different, as it features completely unused "items" that would have been obtained in some unknown way. They appear to have a range of 3 rarities: Bronze, Silver, and Gold, ranking how useful and/or rare they are. Most of the items have effects on towers that are reminiscent of upgrades from specialty buildings in Bloons TD 5, and they all have icons referenced but don't seem to exist. As some items require certain towers placed, they probably would've been used in-game and selected before one started, only applicable if your loadout has the specific towers needed for the effects.
This folder, alongside the data in it, was removed in an unknown later version of the game.

Self-explanatory |
Likely would have been similar to the attack from the Tier 4 upgrade of the Boomerang Thrower specialty building in Bloons TD 5. Interestingly enough, the description calls Boomerang Throwers "Boomerang Monkeys", which is what they would later be called in Bloons TD 6. |
Mounted Dartling Guns |

"Adds forward firing gunners to Monkey Ace" |

The name of this item is a reference to a special item in Bloons Monkey City, where it has a similar purpose. |

|
Stinger |
Silver |
"Road spikes pop 50% more bloons" |
none |
Seemingly incomplete, as the Effects section in the files is empty. This item is especially odd since road spikes don't exist in this game (not counting Spike Factory). |
Straw Fuse |
Silver |
"Pinapple countdown speed doubled" (sic) |
none |
Seemingly incomplete, as the Effects section in the files is empty. This item is especially odd since pineapple road items don't exist in this game (not counting Monkey Ace's Pineapple Express upgrade). |

Removed Upgrades#
In update 6.18 of the game, the Bloonchipper's 3-x upgrade was renamed from Dual Layer Blades to Triple Layer Blades, with the upgrade description updated to reflect the change. Then, in update 6.20, the Triple Layer Blade upgrade has been replaced with the previously tier 4 upgrade, Super Wide Funnel, with a new, exclusive upgrade, Omni-Shredder, taking place of the tier 4 upgrade. This update has also changed the in-game model of the tier 3 Bloonchipper by giving the tower a bigger tube to reflect this change.
