| '''Bugaboom''' is a boss that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. It is found in the [[Honeyhive Galaxy]] and the [[Puzzle Plank Galaxy]] and is the leader of the [[Mandibug|Mandibug clan]] that infested the Honeyhive Kingdom. Bugaboom's name is a pun on the word "bugaboo," which is a term for a monster, generally a minor children's book monster. Bugaboom shares its boss music with [[King Kaliente]] and [[Topmaniac]]. However, Bugaboom's boss music speeds up after it takes damage, unlike the music during the King Kaliente and Topmaniac fights. | |

| ===''Super Mario Galaxy''===

| [[File:SMG Honeyhive Fighting Bugaboom.png|thumb|Bugaboom flying]]
| |
| In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Bugaboom is fought on a planet with several [[Banandelion]]s and two [[Bee Mushroom]]s in the Honeyhive Galaxy and the level [[Big Bad Bugaboom]]. There is also a river of water that will deactivate the Bee Suit if touched by [[Mario]]. Under the planet is a [[black hole]].

| [[File:Bugaboom - SMG screenshot.png|thumb|left|Bugaboom chasing Mario]]
| |
| Once Mario arrives on the planet, Bugaboom drops from the sky and clicks its mandibles. It then proceeds to attack Mario. The only way to defeat it is by jumping, flying or using a Banandelion to get on to its back and then [[Ground Pound|Ground Pounding]].
| |
| | |
| Bugaboom will then take flight and fly around in circles so that Mario can no longer jump on its back. The only ways to get up now are to use [[Bee Mario]] or a Banandelion. If Mario ground pounds on Bugaboom when above it, it will turn red with rage and start to fly faster and once every pass it will turn on its side and fire [[Bomb (object)|bomb]]s at the ground. It is impossible to hit Bugaboom while it is on its side so Mario must wait until it is going the right way and use a Bee Mushroom to hover above where it will be or aim with a Banandelion which is considerably harder as Bugaboom is moving so fast. Once Mario ground pounds Bugaboom a third time, it will explode and a [[Power Star]] will appear.

| [[File:SMG2 Puzzle Plank Bugabooms Back.png|thumb|Cloud Mario and Bugaboom]]
| |
| Bugaboom makes its second appearance in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' in a secret mission entitled [[Bugaboom's Back]]. It is fought when Mario reaches its planet located in [[Puzzle Plank Galaxy]] after feeding the [[Hungry Luma]] on the previous planet 70 coins. Its battle tactics are the same as in the previous game, but Mario must change his strategy: instead of the Bee Suit, Mario must become [[Cloud Mario]] in order to defeat Bugaboom and the Banandelions are replaced with [[Springboard]]s and the honeycombs have been removed. Bugaboom's boss music from ''Super Mario Galaxy'' returns in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', where it plays the same way when Bugaboom is fought: it speeds up for the second and third hit. This boss, along with [[Gobblegut|the fiery version of Gobblegut]], are the only bosses in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' that can be accessed only by a secret star mission. Bugaboom is one of two bosses originating in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' that reappear in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' to not be fought in the [[Boss Blitz Galaxy]], with the [[Mandibug Stack]] being the other.

| In the [[Prima]] guide to ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', one of the pictures for Bugaboom's article is a picture for [[King Lakitu]]'s article instead.

| | Bugaboom is a huge green Mandibug, with six legs and eyes that have a demented look to them. Unlike most Mandibugs, his body is flat instead of rounded. He will attempt to consume the player with his retractable mandibles, but after attacking him once, he will reveal his wings and fly rapidly around his planet and drop explosives from the underside of his body. Bugaboom can be best described as a beetle with one solid shell that's green and has a marking of a blast on the middle of the shell. Also, the mandibles look much like an ant's pincher. |

Bugaboom can be best described as a beetle with one solid green shell and the [[Ground Pound]] symbol emblazoned on it. Notably, the mandibles look much like an ant's pincers. | |

| ==Profiles and statistics==
| | Bugaboom's eyes look strangely hypnotic, meaning that he may not have been the one who planned the Mandibug attack and just may have been hypnotized into assaulting [[Mario]]. Of course, this may also mean that Bugaboom is simply demented. |

| | This battle practices Mario's use of the [[ground pound]]. The planet on which [[Mario]] fights Bugaboom has several dandelion stalks, a Bee Mushroom, and some water. The planet also has a [[Black Hole]] under it. To defeat Bugaboom, Mario must [[Ground Pound]] it's back three times. The first time Bugaboom will charge at Mario when it sees him and Mario must jump and/or fly over its back then ground pound. The second time, Bugaboom rises into the air and flies and Mario must either fly or use a dandelion stalk. The third time, Bugaboom will turn red and go on its side while flying along so that Mario will not be able to jump on. The player must hit it while it is not on its side. In the third round, it will also fire bombs out of its stomach. |
| |description1=''Upon entering the Honey Hive Galaxy, Mario must battle this six-legged Mandibug. Defeating it requires three direct hits. Ground-pound it as quickly as possible. Climb a dandelion stalk and jump on his back with a ground pound again. Power up to Bee Mario for the final blow, and your prize will be a Power Star!''
