Thwomp Stompers

Thwomp Stompers are an item used in the Super Mario Bros. film. They are a pair of large boots which propel the user into the air. They are powered by small cartridges that resemble Bullet Bills which are inserted into a slot in the heel of the boot.
The boots are first seen used by Big Bertha after she steals Princess Daisy's necklace from Mario and Luigi at the beginning of the film, but are referenced earlier in a shot of the city that displays a store that sells them. Much later, Big Bertha allows Mario and Luigi to use her Thwomp Stompers to escape from Lena and her Goomba army at the Boom Boom Bar. They are later used once again at the end of the film by Mario to knock Koopa into the Clown Car platform, then by Luigi to evade Koopa's Fireballs. 
==Usage==
Thwomp Stompers are capable of propelling the user high into the air through the usage of small cartridges that resemble Bullet Bills. The name suggests the boots may have extra weight to crush targets, although the film does not make mention of this.
==Skybox Trading Card Description==
Have you ever wished that you could fly? Well, that's exactly what a pair of Thwomp-Stomers will let you do... except that they don't exist! Even through they don't really work, the stompers in the film sure look like they do -- thanks to the incredible detail and creativity used in creating them.
==Other Information==
The props used for the boots in the film were subject to wear and tear very quickly. The braces tended to pop open, so they found that the Velcro and wire were a quick and easy fix to the problem. The foam would also crack very often. As is the norm with most movie props, there exist multiple copies, although most were trashed after the completion of the movie. Some were preserved and survive to this day.
