Kab-omb

Kab-ombs are variety of Bob-omb first appearing in New Super Mario Bros.. A Kab-omb has an indigo face just like a Bob-omb, except it has smaller circular eyes, big blue lips, and slightly smaller feet. It also has a green fringe around the bottom of its body. Kab-ombs can be taken out by jumping on them; however, if struck by fire, such as a fireball or volcanic debris, their fuse will become lit and they will turn red and chase Mario at increased speeds for a few seconds, before jumping upwards and exploding into fireworks. The only stage they appear in is World 8-8 - a level featuring constant eruptions spewing volcanic debris.

Kab-ombs make a reappearance as an item in Mario Golf: World Tour. When a Kab-omb is used, it explodes in mid-air to drop the ball straight down.
