'''Bugaboom''' is a boss that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and the sequel, ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. This boss is found in the [[Honeyhive Galaxy]] and the [[Puzzle Plank Galaxy]] and is the leader of the [[Mandibug|Mandibug clan]] that infested the Honeyhive Kingdom. The name Bugaboom is a pun on the word Bug-a-boo, which is a term for monsters, generally minor children's book monsters.

Bugaboom shares its boss music with [[King Kaliente]] and [[Topmaniac]].  However, Bugaboom's boss music speeds up after it takes damage, which never happens with the King Kaliente and Topmaniac fights.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Bugaboom is fought on a planet with several [[Banandelion]]s and two [[Bee Mushroom]]s in the Honeyhive Galaxy and the level [[Big Bad Bugaboom]]. There is also a river of water that will deactivate the Bee Suit if touched by [[Mario]]. Under the planet is a [[black hole]].

''"Upon entering the Honey Hive Galaxy, Mario must battle this six-legged Mandibug. Defeating it requires three direct hits. Ground-pound it as quickly as possible. Climb a dandelion stalk and jump on his back with a ground pound again. Power up to Bee Mario for the final blow, and your prize will be a Power Star!"''
Bugaboom makes its second appearance in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' in a secret mission entitled [[Bugaboom's Back]]. It is fought when Mario reaches its planet located in [[Puzzle Plank Galaxy]] after feeding the [[Hungry Luma]] on the previous planet 70 coins. Its battle tactics are the same as in the previous game, but Mario must change his strategy: instead of the Bee Suit, Mario must become [[Cloud Mario]] in order to defeat Bugaboom and the Banandelions are replaced with [[Springboard]]s and the honeycombs have been removed. Bugaboom's boss music from ''Super Mario Galaxy'' returns in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', where it plays the same way when Bugaboom is fought: it speeds up for the second and third hit. This boss, along with [[Gobblegut|the fiery version of Gobblegut]], are the only bosses in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' that can be accessed only by a secret star mission. Bugaboom is one of two bosses originating in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' to appear again in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' but to not be fought in the [[Boss Blitz Galaxy]], with the [[Mandibug Stack]] being the other.

The only difference is that it is only heard twice in the second game because Topmaniac is absent.

Bugaboom is a huge green Mandibug, with six legs and eyes with ringed pupils. Unlike most Mandibugs, its body is flat instead of rounded. It will attempt to consume Mario with its retractable mandibles, but after attacking it once, it will reveal its wings and fly rapidly around its planet and drop explosives from the underside of its body. Bugaboom can be best described as a beetle with one solid green shell and the [[Ground Pound]] symbol emblazoned on it. Also, the mandibles look much like an ant's pincers.
