'''Bomb Boos''' are explosive, black varieties of [[Boo]]s first appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. They later reappear in the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series during the Minion side modes.
'''Bomb Boos''' are the explosive, black-colored variety of the [[Boo]]s that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Bomb Boos only appear in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]] during the missions [[Beware of Bouldergeist]] and [[Bouldergeist's Daredevil Run]], where they are necessary to defeat [[Bouldergeist]]. Bomb Boos float lazily back and forth, exploding after some time, but they do move towards [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] if either of the Bros. get close to them. Unlike normal Boos, Bomb Boos are not shy and will keep moving even if they are looked at by Mario or Luigi. If the player [[spin]]s near one, Mario or Luigi will grab its tongue, and continuing to spin will swing the Boo around until it hits something or they eventually lose their grip.
In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Bomb Boos have only appeared in two galaxies: the [[Ghostly Galaxy]]; during the missions [[Beware of Bouldergeist]] and [[Bouldergeist's Daredevil Run]] and in the [[Boss Blitz Galaxy]]; during the missions [[Throwback Throwdown]] and [[Throwback Throwdown Speed Run]]. They are necessary to defeat [[Bouldergeist]]. Bomb Boos float lazily back and forth, exploding after some time, but they do move towards [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] if they get close to them. If the player [[Spin]]s near one, Mario or Luigi will grab its tongue, and it will get spun around until it hits something. If Mario or Luigi holds on to the Bomb Boo for too long, they will let go of it.


Up to six Bomb Boos can be held at once. If the player holds it for too long, it will begin to flash red and explode soon after, damaging Mario or Luigi.  
If the player holds it for too long, it will begin to flash red. If the player does not let go of it then, the Bomb Boo will explode, injuring the player (though by continuing to spin, the Bomb Boo can be swung wider and faster until it flies out of Mario's grip or hits something). Mario or Luigi can hold up to six Bomb Boos at once.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', [[Bouldergeist]] re-appears, along with four other ''Super Mario Galaxy'' bosses, in the [[Boss Blitz Galaxy]]. Because of Bouldergeist's reappearance, Bomb Boos make a comeback so Mario can damage the boss in the same way as he did in the previous game.

==Official profiles==
Bomb Boo makes an appearance in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as an assistant doctor. In stage mode, they grant a chance in increasing the capsule amount by three when the player has only three capsules remaining, in which the chance of activating it is greater at higher levels, up to 25% at maximum level. If this effect failed to activate the first time, it will attempt to activate with the same percentage chance if the player's capsule amount exceeded this amount and then reduced to three remaining capsules again. Once this effect activated, it will not activate again for the duration of the stage. In versus mode, they grant a chance that the skill meter will be half-full at the start of the match, in which the chance is greater at higher levels, up to 90% at maximum level.
