Template:Plantpic1 Template:Infobox Conehead Zombie Tabber Conehead Zombies and their world-themed variants in Plants vs. Zombies 2 are zombies with roadcones on their head for protection. While they are relatively easy to defeat, they are slightly more difficult to kill than both the Flag Zombie and the ordinary Zombie. They have somewhat normal health, but they can only be directly hurt once the roadcone on their head takes enough damage and falls off.
History
Plants vs. Zombies
Conehead Zombie first appears in Level 1-3. It is the third zombie the player encounters, after the ordinary Zombie and the Flag Zombie.

Strategies
Even though he takes more hits than the regular Zombie, the zombie is not at all difficult to stop. A Snow Pea, two Peashooters, or a Repeater can take him down easily. He is weak to almost all strategies, so your basic setup should take him out. However, do not underestimate him, as he can be a threat in the early levels and the beginning of the game where you do not have access to many powerful plants. A single Peashooter can be sufficient to kill one if the Conehead Zombie is far enough away, but two or three work better, especially if there are multiple zombies that need to be killed.
I, Zombie
After the normal Zombie is replaced by the Imp, use this zombie for the lanes you want a small amount of damage absorption. Their roadcones are not affected by the Magnet-shroom, so use them to take out the Magnet-shroom if it is not well defended. However, be careful not to send them to a highly defended lane. For puzzles involving Scaredy-shrooms, time Conehead placement and location, so the most Scaredy-shrooms in a lane are hiding, allowing Coneheads to walk down the row with no or minimal harm.

Trivia
General
- Zombie, Conehead Zombie, Buckethead Zombie, Gargantuar, and Imp are the only zombies that appear in every Plants vs. Zombies game.
Specific to Plants vs. Zombies
- In the Suburban Almanac, it is stated that a Conehead Zombie is twice as tough as a normal Zombie, but in fact he is 2.8x as tough as one.
- As seen in the concept design for the Conehead Zombie posted on the Plants vs. Zombies Facebook page, the Conehead Zombie, instead of just being a normal zombie with a traffic cone on his head, would've worn what appears to be a construction uniform. He also would've had a mustache.
- Conehead Zombie is the third most frequently occurring zombie (other than regular Zombies and the Flag Zombie).
- Some of the Game of the Year edition packs come with a punch-out cardboard cone that can be placed on the head of the zombie figurine. This cone will require minimal construction first, possibly with the aid of tape.
- Conehead Zombie, Buckethead Zombie, Screen Door Zombie and Trash Can Zombie are the only zombies that can degrade into a normal Zombie.
- If Plants vs. Zombies: Game of the Year Version was purchased on Steam before May 5, 2011, players from Team Fortress 2 will be awarded with a Dead Cone, a promotional cosmetic item for the Pyro that resembles the Conehead Zombie's cone.
- In anything Wall-nut Bowling-related and Whack a Zombie, it takes two hits for a Conehead Zombie to die.
- Conehead Zombie, along with two normal Zombies, appears on the loading screen.
- Conehead Zombie is the first zombie to have some sort of armor.
- He is also the first headwear zombie encountered in the game.
- Conehead Zombie is one of the most frequent zombies in Survival: Endless.
Specific to Plants vs. Zombies 2
- In the Almanac, prior to the 2.5.1 update, the Conehead Peasant had a bone sticking out of his arm.
- However, this also currently happens with the Conehead Adventurer Zombie.
- Neon Conehead is called "Neon Conehead Zombie" in his Almanac. This is in contrast to most other Conehead variations in the game, where their Almanac entries usually leave out the "zombie" in their name, with the exception of some zombies such as the Future or Adventurer zombies.
- Jurassic Conehead has "Hungry" speed in the Almanac, unlike other variants. This trait is shared with Jurassic Zombie.
