3) Pennies [PEN + KNEES]
4) Plankton [PLANK + TON]

When Patron M. Sean Molley said it was "A true classic!", I concurred, and also noted that I had already preordered the Reignited Trilogy that contains the HD versions of this game as well as its two followups. Apparently, that last bit was news to him, and he replied "I didn't know they were remastering it -- thanks for the heads-up! I assume it will be on the PS1 Classic, too, but an updated version would be great." [His comment was written before the PS1 Classic's lineup was completely revealed, and Spyro ultimately wasn't on there]
Solver Patrick Jordan said "Incidentally, I am also enjoying the reruns of Classic Concentration. Happily, I have Buzzr on my satellite system, and the show is on during my lunch hour. Thanks for the puzzle!"
Solver Sam Levitin showed his age by saying "I remember Concentration from the early 70's. What fun."
