Wonder]]''. Green and purple variants were introduced in [[The Midway Trial: Hop to It]], with [[Metal Gamboo|metallic ones]] being first shown in [[Missile Meg Mayhem]]. Stacks of Gamboos often hide in the ground and pop up when the player gets near. These enemies can be thrown when stomped, being capable of defeating other enemies the same as a [[Shell]], but functioning differently as they instead bounce off the ground a few times before losing momentum. Their English name is an anagram of "[[Goomba]]" that rhymes with "bamboo".<ref name=WonderSekai13/>

Metal Gamboos are immune to [[Fire Mario]]'s fireballs and can interact with electricity in the level [[High-Voltage Gauntlet]]. In its electrical state, the player cannot touch them (unless using an attack in either [[Drill Mario|Drill Form]] or [[Elephant Mario|Elephant Form]]) without taking damage, even if the enemy is in its stomped state.

Some can also be seen either dancing in place or joyously singing while walking during different [[Wonder Effect]]s.
