The '''Thunderbirdo'''<ref> | The '''Thunderbirdo'''<ref>{{cite|quote=Enough Mr. Nice Guy, it's time for my ultimate weapon! Mouser, bring forth the Thunderbirdo!|author=[[Bowser|King-of-the-Road Koopa]]|date=September 25, 1989|title="[[Toad Warriors]]"}}</ref> is a purple, colossal [[Birdo]], who only appears in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Toad Warriors]]." Its name is a portmanteau of "Thunderbird" and "Birdo." | ||
[[Bowser|King-of-the-Road Koopa]], attacking a [[Rebel Fort]] in [[Car Land]], gives [[Mouser]] orders to call for the Thunderbirdo, a member of the [[Koopa Troop|Koopa Pack]] whom he brings forward on a car, to use in the attack. Once in position, the Thunderbirdo fires a giant [[Birdo's Egg|egg]] at the Rebel Fort, which explodes violently upon the building, heavily damaging it. After this first attack on the Rebel Fort, the Thunderbirdo continues blasting the building with more explosive eggs. | |||
Later, after [[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] drive away from the semi-demolished Rebel Fort in a spaghetti sauce tanker truck, the Thunderbirdo, riding a car driven by Mouser, tries attacking them. Before the Thunderbirdo fires an egg at the tanker truck, Princess Toadstool, who is riding on the truck's top, throws a [[Bob-omb|Bob-Omb]] bag into the Thunderbirdo's snout. The Thunderbirdo unwittingly swallows it on reflex, causing it to blow up. | |||

*When the Thunderbirdo is introduced, its lower body is depicted as green with a yellow belly rather than purple with a white belly; later, just before its explosion, the shot of a panicked Mouser also shows its tail as green. | *When the Thunderbirdo is introduced, its lower body is depicted as green with a yellow belly rather than purple with a white belly; later, just before its explosion, the shot of a panicked Mouser also shows its tail as green. | ||
