Paired with [[Fire Bar#Mario Kart series|Podoboo Cog]]s, they are found on the long straight of the course pointing south. They slowly come out of slat mechanical green [[Warp Pipe]]s with slot-like holes; they serve as a wall and cause players to stop when they are bumped into, and they cannot be destroyed. A total of three appears on the course. They reappear when Waluigi Stadium returns as a [[classic course|Retro Course]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', but their left-to-right locations on the track are reversed. They appear again in the course's appearance in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass]]'' DLC pack, where they are more metallic and no longer move their mouths. Additionally, the first two Mecha Piranha Plants are now located next to each other and rotated at a 45° angle.
