|---|---|
 The Abominable Snowkoopa, terrorizing the penguins of Antarctica | |
| Species | Snowman |
| First appearance | The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 - "7 Continents for 7 Koopas" (1990) |
- “I made an Abominable Snowkoopa!”
- —Big Mouth Koopa Jr., "7 Continents for 7 Koopas"
The Abominable Snowkoopa was a monstrous snowman, created by Big Mouth Koopa. It only ever appeared in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "7 Continents for 7 Koopas". To wreak havoc in Antarctica, Big Mouth builds an Abominable Snowkoopa, which he zaps to life with his magic wand, and allows it to terrorize the penguins of the continent.
Later on, Luigi arrives in Antarctica, grabs Big Mouth's scepter and zaps the Abominable Snowkoopa, causing it to collapse and turn into a pile of snow, ultimately destroying it. Although the Abominable Snowkoopa is never seen again, Luigi uses the wand to enlarge some penguins, who chase after Big Mouth as a form of payback for the Abominable Snowkoopa he had unleashed on them.
The Abominable Snowkoopa looks more or less like an ordinary snowman, with a top hat, goggles, scarf, and long carrot nose, and does not have any traits resembling a Koopa specifically.
