| '''Crabbers'''<ref>{{cite|author=Browne, Catherine|title=''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=Random House Inc|date=May 23, 2010|page=26|isbn=978-0-30746-907-6}}</ref> are [[crab]] enemies from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They appear to be inspired by the {{wp|fiddler crab}}, which is known for having a claw larger than the other. [[Mario]] can defeat a Crabber by [[spin]]ning at its rear; however, since Crabbers always try to face Mario, he has to run around it until the Crabber cannot keep up, or spin in its face or [[jump]] on it, forcing the Crabber to stop and defend itself with its pincer and allowing Mario to spin at its exposed backside to defeat it. | | '''Crabbers'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Premiere Edition guide. Page 26.</ref> are a type of [[Crab]] found in beach [[Galaxy|galaxies]] of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are shown to have a big left pincer and a small right one. [[Mario]] has to defeat the creature by [[Spin]]ning at its rear. This can be tricky, as Crabbers always face Mario. So, Mario first has to spin in its face or [[Jump]] on it. The Crabber will defend itself with its big pincer and will stop following Mario, so he can Spin at its exposed backside to defeat it. |

| Crabbers come in two colors: red and cyan. Red Crabbers are more numerous and aggressive than cyan ones, so they are easier to defeat, as they come closer to damage Mario. They leave [[Star Bit]]s behind when defeated. Cyan Crabbers are harder to defeat as they retreat much quicker when Mario or Luigi is near them. They leave a [[1-Up Mushroom]] behind when defeated. | | Crabbers come in two colors: red and cyan. Red Crabbers are less skittish than blue ones, so they are easier to defeat, as they come closer to hurt Mario. They leave [[Star Bit]]s behind when defeated. Cyan Crabbers are harder to defeat and fear when Mario or Luigi is near them and run away. They leave a [[1-Up Mushroom]] behind when defeated. |

| Crabbers reappear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. [[Yoshi]] can lick up red Crabbers to spit out their big pincer in the same manner as a [[Spiny Egg]] or [[Bullet Bill]]. The pincer acts as a [[boomerang]], as it flies out for some distance, then returns. The pincers are unable to destroy [[glass case]]s.
