Dino Piranha KingKalienteProfile.png Rendered model of the Mandibug Stack in Super Mario Galaxy. Bugaboom
A reptilian monster with a clubbed tail. It charges down Mario when he is in its line of sight. Spinning into its club slingshots it towards its head, damaging it. A giant octopus that dwells in lava. He shoot coconuts and flaming rocks at Mario. Spinning into a coconut smacks it back towards him and damages him. A Mandibug that carries its child on its back. Both can be defeated by performing a Ground Pound, though defeating the child first enrages the parent and makes it harder to strike. An enormous, winged Mandibug. It releases explosive droppings from its abdomen as it flies and tries to bite Mario with its pinchers while grounded. Ground pounding its back damages it.
