'''Konotako'''<ref>[http://honndana.sakura.ne.jp/mario/dr.cgi?key=2587 Konotako's entry at the Japanese Super Mario Daijiten (Big Dictionary)]</ref> (コノタコ) are enemies in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'' that appear to be flying bombs. They reside on [[Mt. Teapot]] and are encountered in Course 10 and Course 13. They are similar to [[Bob-omb]]s, except that they have spikes on their undersides. Konotako attack by hovering over intruders and self-detonating. The spikes allow the Konotako to latch on to [[Wario]]'s head, therefore ensuring the self-destruction was successful. However, the explosions only stun Wario, not damaging him at all.
