Mecha Hand

Bowser's Claw is a large mechanical hand that made its debut in New Super Mario Bros. U. As the name implies, the hand is modeled after Bowser's actual claws. It seems to be an attachment to Bowser's Flagship, and it is most likely operated by Bowser Jr.. It is present during the intro, where it tosses Mario and co. into the Acorn Tree, The Mighty Cannonship, where it is used to knock the players out of the airship, and Boarding the Airship, where it acts similarly to the Smashers in Super Mario World, and the Chomps from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
