Fireball gun



The fireball gun, also known as the Fry Guy Flamethrower, the toaster, flamethrower , flame thrower , fireball thrower , and flame-throwing gun , is a weapon used in the Super Mario Bros. film. As its name suggested, it shoots fireballs as opposed to bullets.

President Koopa threatens Mario and Luigi with a fireball gun during their battle, only to be launched into an empty vat by a Thwomp Stomper-using Mario. When the dimensions merge, the fireball gun malfunctions, forcing Koopa to discard it for a Devolution Gun. Upon returning to Dinohattan, Koopa manages to get the gun to work again and fires it at the Mario Bros., only to miss and hit a Koopa propaganda poster depicting him kissing a baby, enabling the brothers to get a clear shot at him with Devolution Guns.

Three weeks later, Daisy shows up at the Mario Bros.' home armed with a fireball gun, asking for help.

Trivia

 * One of the names for the fireball gun is the "Fry Guy Flamethrower" in reference to the Fryguy enemy introduced in Super Mario Bros. 2. A neon sign in the Boom Boom Bar says "These premises are protected by Fry Guy Flamethrowers".
