Pineapple Present is the first upgrade of the Monkey Ace in BTD4 and the first upgrade of the path 2 in BTD5. It costs $170 on Easy, $200 on Medium, $215 on Hard, and $240 on Impoppable. In BTD4, it is called Pineapple Express instead. It allows the Monkey Ace to bomb bloons with pineapples by dropping average 3-second countdown pineapples every couple of seconds. Although the pineapples may not be as accurate, they may still explode a few bloons if fortunate enough to be timed correctly. However, most of the time, they will explode in useless locations.
If the player upgrades the Monkey Ace to Operation: Dart Storm, the Pineapples will get dropped quicker because the Monkey Ace shoots quicker. However, buying the opposite tier-3 upgrade, Neva-Miss Targeting, it will deploy pineapples at the normal expected speed.

Trivia[]
The Pineapples the Monkey Ace drops can land anywhere on the track, even where there is no road.
This is due to the Pineapples being dropped every shot in BTD4 and every 3 seconds in BTD5.
In BTD4 if the player divides the figure-8 into 8 intervals, it drops a Pineapple every 3 intervals.
There is a Glitch in BTD4 where if the player rapidly places Pineapples behind the Plane, after 2-3 loops it will start dropping Pineapples every interval.
It was very likely to be changed to every 3 seconds in BTD5 due to the fact that it would make the Spectre too powerful.
