Template:Species-infobox A Tail Bullet Bill[1] is a species of Bullet Bill with a tail that only appears in Super Mario 3D Land.

As with most Bullet Bills, they are fired from Bill Blasters, and fly in the direction they are fired from; unlike normal Bullet Bills, they will briefly slow and do a spin attack with their tails after traveling some distance. After defeating a Tail Bullet Bill, Mario sometimes can obtain a Super Leaf (Statue Leaves in Special World levels).

  • European Website Bio: "These Bullet Bills have grown tails, and can use them to launch a spinning attack on Mario!"
