Landmaster
From the Super Mario Wiki
“It’s so big, it might be hard to turn around. But its law-breaking power and authority is unstoppable.”
—Masahiro Sakurai, Smash Bros. DOJO!!
Landmaster is the Final Smash of Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, and Wolf O'Donnell in the game, Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Next to the Arwing, the Landmaster Tank is the most powerful weapon the Star Fox team has in the Star Fox series. When one of them collects the Smash Ball, the Landmaster Tank will appear, and they will hop inside it. Opposing players can jump on top of it, but this can be a bad move, as they can roll them off the tank. The jump button allows the Landmaster Tank to hover, tilting the control stick downwards causes it to roll around once, which can get players off the tank, and damage them severely, and the attack button fires the very powerful cannon, which can cause massive damage to players hit, possibly an instant KO. If a player is standing on the cannon while it is being blasted, the player will be blasted also. The tank is indestructible, but it is very difficult to turn the tank around; the player must flick the controller stick, to turn it, which is actually rather slow.
Falco's Landmaster attack has less power than Fox's attack, and also has worse ground control. However, to match Falco's air preference, Falco's Landmaster is more useful in the sky. Unlike Fox's Landmaster, the jets on Falco's Landmaster allow him to fly high enough to reach off-screen. This is useful when opposing players are trapped on top of the Landmaster, as Falco can just fly high enough to take the players off-screen, thus, knocking them out. Like Fox's Landmaster, it is still indestructible.
Wolf summons the Landmaster, similiar to Fox or Falco, but his has noticable differences. First, it has the colors of his Wolfen. Second, It's lasers are more powerful and are shot out faster. For the final difference, his is the fastest, but stays around shorter as a result.

| Landmaster | 
| Team Star Fox's high-powered, anti-aircraft hover tank. Its caterpillar-like treads allow it to perform quick lateral rolls. It can even fly for short periods of time. Its main cannons closely resemble the weapons technology on an Arwing, so the same rules apply: if you charge them up, you can shoot guided missiles. |

| Type | Image | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Landmaster (Fox) | 
| Fox's Final Smash. Climb aboard the Landmaster tank, the ultrahigh- performance, antiair, rolling combat vehicle of Team Star Fox. Just like in the Star Fox series, the cannon can be used to blast foes, and the tank can roll over enemies. The jets beneath the main body can be used to hover. Between its firepower and mobility, this tank knows no equal. |
| Landmaster (Falco) | 
| Falco's Final Smash. He jumps aboard the Landmaster high-spec, antiaircraft tank. With the tank's powerful cannon blasts and rolling ability, it's possible to take out all enemies at once. The Landmaster is based on actual production vehicles, but Team Star Fox's Landmaster was customized by the team's mechanic, Slippy Toad. |
| Landmaster (Wolf) | 
| Wolf's Final Smash. Wolf analyzed Fox's Landmaster and built his own improved version, which he now calls out and boards. He's increased the output of the onboard generators and upped the vehicle's firepower. However, this has substantially decreased the time the Landmaster can appear on the screen. It sports the same colors as Wolf's Wolfen. |
[edit] Trivia
- Neither Falco Lombardi nor Wolf O'Donnell have ever used a Landmaster in the Star Fox series, at least canonically.
