The '''Mecha Hand'''<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''New Super Mario Bros. U'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=187|publisher=Prima Games|language=en-us|date=November 18, 2012|isbn=978-0-307-89690-2}}</ref> is a large mechanical hand modeled after [[Bowser]]'s own hand that appears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. It is attached to [[Bowser's Airship]], and it is most likely operated by [[Bowser Jr.]] The Mecha Hand is present during the intro, where it tosses [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yellow Toad and Blue Toad|Yellow Toad]], and [[Yellow Toad and Blue Toad|Blue Toad]] into the [[Acorn Tree]]; [[The Mighty Cannonship]] ([[All Aboard!]] in ''New Super Luigi U''), where it attempts to knock the players out of the [[airship]]; and [[Boarding the Airship]] ([[Bowser Jr. Showdown]] in ''New Super Luigi U''), where it acts similarly to the [[Pillar]]s from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and the [[Incoming Chomp]]s from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. Ultimately, the hand destroys the airship when it attempts to crush the players while they are on board.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the Mecha Hand is used to bring Luigi to the [[Koopa Cruiser]], replacing a generic-looking claw.

A smaller variant of the hand appears as one of the attachments to the [[Junior Clown Car]] in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]''. Bowser Jr. uses it as part of his [[Special Shot (Mario Tennis Aces)|Special Shot]].

The [[LEGO Super Mario|LEGO ''Super Mario'']] "Bowser's Airship" expansion set contains a Mecha Hand mounted on one of the ship's flagpoles.
