1-Up Chest

1-Up Chests are an object containing a silver dragon statue representing an extra life. 1-Up Chests only appear in the first game, Spyro the Dragon. Spyro can break open the 1-Up Chest to obtain the dragon statue within.

1-Up Chests are round containers that are separated into two halves: the bottom part is shaped like a basket and has a purple line circling around it, and the top part is covered in purple scales resembling that of Spyro's. An unidentifiable creature is contained within the 1-Up Chest, and it is only seen by its eyes. In the Spyro Reignited Trilogy remake, its eye color is light blue, and it has six visible purple, monster-like fingers, three on each side.

Starting with Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!, 1-Up Chests were replaced with Butterfly Jars.
