A '''Spring Topman''' | A '''Spring Topman''' is a green variant of [[Topman]], appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. One first appears in the [[Buoy Base Galaxy]] near the area with the [[Water Shooter]]s. It only appears when Mario/Luigi spins a wheel, causing it to appear through a small, [[black hole]]-like vortex. A similar robot known as a [[Jump Guarder]] appears atop the tower, and can spawn [[Topmini]]s. Spring Topmen later appear as part of the [[Dreadnought Galaxy]]'s Topman Tribe; one here can spawn a [[Topmini]] if stomped on. A Spring Topman can use a spin attack which does not damage [[Mario]], but pushes him away, possibly into other hazards that may hurt him. | ||
If Mario tries to [[stomp]] a Spring Topman or [[spin]]s it, its head will pop up, immobilizing it, and a second stomp will spring Mario up for a jumping boost (similar to when Mario jumps on a [[Spindrift]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''). Mario must take advantage of this to reach high ledges and items. The only way to defeat one is to spin it into an electric fence. | If Mario tries to [[stomp]] a Spring Topman or [[spin]]s it, its head will pop up, immobilizing it, and a second stomp will spring Mario up for a jumping boost (similar to when Mario jumps on a [[Spindrift]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'').

The enemy later reappears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', and is found only in the [[Space Storm Galaxy]]. | |||
