Stoplight Zombie

Overview
The Stoplight Zombie can absorb 50 normal damage shots. Stoplight appearance changes upon absorption of 14 and 27 normal damage shots before exploding after 40. The zombie's appearance changes upon total absorption of 45 normal damage shots. The Stoplight Zombie can be a very annoying opponent because of its item. When the light is red, all plants in its lane are stopped. If the light is yellow, then all the plants in its lane work at half their normal speed. If the light is green, all the plants work at a normal pace. His speed while holding the stoplight is that of a Trash Can Zombie.

Strategy
A good strategy for this zombie is to use catapult plants to shoot over the stoplight, since the stoplight can absorb 40 normal damage shots. However, the yellow light forces them to shoot at a speed of x1/4. Since they don't come too often, it is also good to just instant-kill them.
