'''Karamenbo'''<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/land2/?lang=en English ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'' entry on the official Mario Portal]. ''nintendo.co.jp''. Retrieved August 13, 2022. ([https://archive.ph/xw7hA Archived] August 13, 2022, 13:51:45 UTC via archive.today.)</ref> are [[Thwomp]]-like obstacles appearing in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]''. They are huge spiked cylinders made up of four independently spinning segments that crash down from above when [[Mario]] draws near, before slowly rising to the ceiling. They appear only in [[Mario's castle]], and they cannot be destroyed, only avoided. [[Bigbee]]s from earlier in the game have the same behavior.
