This article is about the item in Kirby's Dream Land. For other uses of the term "Bomb", see Bomb (disambiguation). |
“ | This can be a real blast if I throw it at an enemy, but if the bomb blast reaches me, it can hurt me as well. If I get too close to a bomb without swallowing it, it might explode - so take care!” |

Bomb[1] is an item in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby's Dream Land.
Physical Appearance[]
In Kirby's Dream Land, the Bomb is a nondescript black sphere with a very short fuse sticking out from it. It appears blue in more recent games.
Games[]
Kirby's Dream Land[]
The Bomb appears exclusively in Castle Lololo and Float Islands. When Kirby inhales or walks into it, he can spit it back out, which shoots the bomb across the screen and activates it as it flies. Any enemy standing in front of him will be caught in the blast radius and subsequently defeated.
If the bomb is left alone for a short period after Kirby sees it, it self-destructs.
Kirby's Pinball Land[]
In the Kracko Land Bonus Game, the player is tasked with bouncing Kirby into items to propel them onto a platform where a non-ball Kirby can eat them. The Bomb is one of these items. It earns the player "+B" (Bonus Points) but causes Kirby to falter, making the player lose opportunities to get more items.
Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe[]
A bomb is used as the object that is passed between characters in Bomb Rally. The goal of each character is to use their frying pan to hit the bomb so it flies towards other characters until a character is hit by the bomb, which blows them up and eliminates them. Eliminated characters are replaced by Bubbles, who always hit the bomb towards other characters.
Kirby Super Star Ultra[]
The Bomb appears exclusively in the Snack Tracks sub-game. Bombs will appear on the conveyor belts alongside food, and players have to tap the bombs with the stylus to fling them away, sending them to someone else's conveyor belt. If the bomb reaches a Kirby, it will detonate, and all of the food on the conveyor belt will be destroyed, along with a long period of stun time.
Kirby: Triple Deluxe, Kirby Fighters Deluxe, and Kirby Fighters 2[]
The Bomb appears in the Kirby Fighters sub-game (as well as the downloadable Kirby Fighters Deluxe and its sequel Kirby Fighters 2). By using the Action Star, an effect can occur where Bombs are dropped on every player excluding the one who used the Action Star, including Ghost players, however Bombs can also damage the summoner if they come into contact with one.
