Their attack pattern is usually being fired in a straight line, either from either or sometimes from [[Banzai Bill Cannon]]s, with a firing sound playing to alert of their incoming presence. Bomber Bills can be dodged by player characters if they either [[jump]] on higher [[platform]]s or [[crouch|duck]] in lower areas. Like most other Bullet Bill varieties, Bomber Bills can be defeated from only either a [[stomp]] or a [[Super Star]], being unaffected by [[fireball]]s and immediately breaking out of [[Ice Ball]]s. While Bomber Bills share the same black coloration and physical characteristics as Bullet Bills, Bomber Bills lack arms and have mouths in the form of sharp-toothed smiles. Their faces resemble the "shark face" nose art used by pilots in World War II. They are the second-largest derived species of Bullet Bills, after the [[King Bill]].

Bomber Bills' original English namesake, "Banzai," comes from a Japanese interjection (万歳) mainly used for jubilation or celebration, frequently translated as "Hooray!" and literally translated as "ten thousand years," as well as for {{wp|Ten thousand years|wishing someone a long life}} (equivalent to the phrase "Long live..."). Their original name, "Magnum," refers to their very large size in comparison to most enemies in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. Most languages have adopted either the Japanese or English versions of the name, with a few exceptions, one example being the German name, "Riesen-Kugelwilli," meaning "Giant Bullet Willi" where "Willi" is the German equivalent of "Bill." Their current name references their tendency to cause a large explosion when striking into a surface.
