Editing Birdo Ray

[[File:BirdoRayMissile.jpg|thumb|The missile of the '''Birdo Ray''', as seen in a simulation.]]
The '''Birdo Ray''' is a large, seemingly unstoppable superweapon and an extension of [[Bowser|Darth Koopa's]] [[Koop Star]]. Despite its name, the Birdo Ray does not resemble an actual [[Birdo (species)|Birdo]]; instead, it is named for being a [[cannon]] that can fire an egg-shaped missile. The Birdo Ray is also a reference to the Death Ray from ''[[Wikipedia:Star Wars|Star Wars]]'', as a nod to the episode's theme. If the missile hits a planet, it covers the surface in a yolk-like substance, presumably destroying life on the planet.

The Birdo Ray is featured in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Star Koopa]]," where Darth Koopa threatens to destroy the [[Mushroom Colonists' Planet]] with it unless they surrender their planet to him. After capturing [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], Darth Koopa shows her, as well as [[Mario]], [[Luigi]] and [[Toad]], a simulation of the Birdo Ray destroying the Mushroom Colonists' Planet, implying that he wants Princess Toadstool to order the [[Toad (species)|Mushroom colonists]] to surrender.

As Princess Toadstool refuses to surrender, Darth Koopa orders [[Mouser]] to activate the Birdo Ray, which fires after a thirty-minute charging time. After narrowly escaping from Koop Star, Mario's group makes it to the [[Mushroom Colony]] with only fifteen minutes left until the Birdo Ray is set to go off. [[Obi-Wan Toadi]] explains that the only way to stop the Birdo Ray is for someone to penetrate Koop Star in a [[Mushroom Starfighter]], so that they can disable it manually.

Mario and his friends agree to help, and after fighting off enemy [[Stormtroopa Starfighter]]s, Mario succeeds destroying the foundation of Koop Star with a [[Bob-omb]]. As a chain reaction, Koop Star as a whole exploded, taking the Birdo Ray with it, just as it has finished charging.
