| | The '''Giant Cannon''' is a device that appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. It was created in part by the elusive [[General White]] himself. It is located in the [[Fahr Outpost]] under a huge undergroud chamber and is made fully operational. It was also kept a largely guarded secret to anyone who was neither a Bob-omb nor a resident of Fahr Outpost, mostly due to fear that it could be used for evil if it was revealed. When [[Mario]] goes there in hopes of finding a way to the [[Moon]], he is informed that he must seek out [[Goldbob]] and General White if he wished to use the cannon. After he finally tracks them down, Mario speaks to the [[Fahr Outpost Mayor]] once more and the Giant Cannon is activated. It is, by far, the biggest cannon ever to be seen in a Mario game. Loaded with tons and tons of [[Bob-ombs]], Mario hops inside and is shot to the Moon, his final destination before [[The Thousand-Year Door]]. |
| '''Big Bob''' (originally known as the '''big bomb cannon''') is a [[cannon]] that appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. It is located in [[Fahr Outpost]] under a huge underground chamber. The name "Big Bob" is a wordplay on "[[Bob-omb]]," as the cannon is loaded with a large number of Bob-ombs and fired with a powerful explosion, as well as "{{wp|Big Bertha (howitzer)|Big Bertha}}," a famous large artillery model. When [[Mario]] goes there in hopes of finding a way to the [[moon]], he is informed that he must seek out [[Goldbob]] to gain permission to use the cannon and [[General White]] to have him operate it if he wishes to use the cannon. After he locates them, Mario speaks to the [[Fahr Outpost mayor]] once more, and Big Bob is activated. A hatch underneath Mario and his [[party member|partner]] opens to load them into the barrel, and then numerous Bob-ombs are loaded into a chamber. After Mario is shot towards the moon, all of the Bob-ombs parachute back down. | | <br clear=all> |

| The cannon additionally appears in volume 34 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', but it is destroyed by [[Bowser]] before it can be used to launch Mario, [[Goombella]], and [[Koops]] to the moon; Bowser has to throw them instead.
