Heavy Metal Mecha-Bowser

Heavy Metal Mecha-Bowser (or simply known as Mecha-Bowser) is a boss that appears in Super Mario Galaxy. Its a gigantic Toy Robot that appears in the stage Toy Time Galaxy, and also appears to be a likeness of Bowser himself. It serves as the main boss of that stage, is the first boss of that stage, the second boss of the Engine Room and is overall the fifteenth (sixteenth if counting the Mandibug Stack) boss of the game.
== Appearance ==
Despite being design after Bowser, Mecha-Bowser looks more like a traditional Toy Robot. Its similarities in appearance to Bowser are its spiked green shell, the spiky collar, and a red protrusion coming out of its head that vaguely resembles Bowser's hair. Mecha-Bowser is a tall, old fashioned-looking blue and green toy robot with wheels on its feet and wind-up keys coming out of the sides of its head and its back. It features green surfaces (much like the pink ones) that Mario can walk on.
== Powers and abilities ==
Despite Mecha-Bowser's size, it has little-to-no abilities, it can roll around on its "Tread Wheels" and can "launch" out fireballs from its mouth.
== History ==
Not much is known about Mecha-Bowser, it appears in the stage Toy Time Galaxy and has appeared to have captured a bunch of Gearmos in it's mouth, despite its size, Mario was able to climb on top of the robot and destroy its core inside its body. Mecha-Bowser then explodes and frees the Gearmos.
== Battle ==
The battle agents the Mecha-Bowser is very similar to Megaleg, Mario must first make his way to Mecha-Bowser and jump on its foot while avoiding the robot's treads that will K.O him if made contact. Mario can then wall kick in-between Mecha-Bowser's "toes" and onto its leg, he then can Spin Attack the screws on both Mecha-Bowser's lower left and upper right leg to activate a Sling Star to jump on its left chest. Afterwords Mario must Spin Attack the four screws on the corners of the panel that's attach on Mecha-Bowser's left side all the while avoiding the rotating Fire Bar that's in the middle of the robot's chest. Once Mario Spins Attack all four screws, the panel will open up to revile a Warp Pipe to take Mario to a small platform to Mecha-Bowser's right arm, tho he must also take out/or avoid the two Mechakoopas that are standing guard. Once on the arm, Maruo must make his way through Mecha-Bowser's right arm while dealing with Bats, Mario must then Spin Attack the golden screw that's on Mecha-Bowser's right shoulder to destroy it and revial the Launch Star and warp Mario to another platform thats leads to Mecha-Bowser's head. At this point Mario can grab the Spring Mushroom to become Spring Mario, he then must make his way though the platform while dealing with Magikoopa and Mecha-Bowser's fireball launch out of a cannon that within his mouth that also contains the Gearmos. Mario must jump onto Mecha-Bowser's nose, avoid the Sentry Beam that's in front of Mecha-Bowser's forehead, and jump onto the top of Mecha-Bowser's head. At this point Mario can preform the Ground Pound on the pillar of Stone Slaps that are on top of Mecha-Bowser's and all the way down to the robot's chest to destroy Mecha-Bowser.
== Trivia ==
* Mecha-Bowser is very similar to Megaleg of the same game, in that both are gigantic robots fought on a single platform and/or planet, both bosses' names start with the letter "M" and both have similar fighting styles of climbing up the boss and reaching for its head.
* If counting the seven screws as hit-points, then Mecha-Bowser would have eight hit-points in total, the same amount of hit-points that both Tarantox and Bouldergeist have.
