Bowlo Candy
The Bowlo Candy is a yellow Candy in Mario Party 8. It usually costs 15 coins, except when the Candy Shop is selling candies at discounted prices; in these cases, the Bowlo Candy will cost only 5 coins. It has a picture of a beach ball on the wrapper, and when a player uses it, they transform into a rubber ball, similar to Mario's appearance from Mario Pinball Land. This makes them a "Bowlo" Character, and as they move along the board, they will steal ten coins (twenty in Star Battle Arena and Duel Battle mode) from any opponent he or she runs into. In Tag Battle, a player can not steal coins from a teammate, as a team shares their coin and star total.
Bowlo Candy appears in DK's Treetop Temple, Goomba's Booty Boardwalk, Shy Guy's Perplex Express and Koopa's Tycoon Town.
