One of the stranger enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' is the '''Limbo Bro'''. This giant [[Koopa Troopa]] stands on its hind legs and carries a torch. It also sports a helmet of sorts and face paint. It will attack by doing the limbo under its torch and then quickly dashing at its target. They make their home in [[Teehee Valley]].
