'''Beanerang Bros.''' are enemies found in the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] in the game ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Unlike normal [[Boomerang Bro]]s., they are extremely tall and thin, wear sunglasses, and have sprouts growing from their heads. Their relationship with their namesake appears to be similar to [[Troopea]]s and [[Koopa Troopa]]s or [[Lakipea]]s and [[Lakitu]]s; however, they share their name in the English and Japanese localizations of the original game.
'''Beanerang Bros.''' (originally known as '''Boomerang Bros.''') are enemies found in the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] in the game ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.

Their relationship with their namesake appears to be similar to [[Troopea]]s and [[Koopa Troopa]]s or [[Lakipea]]s and [[Lakitu]]s; however, they share their name in the English and Japanese localizations of the original game.


In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', they only inhabit the [[Gwarhar Lagoon]]. In battle, they throw brown [[boomerang]]s, which [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] can dodge with [[jump]]s. Before throwing, its sunglasses will twinkle; if the right side of the glasses twinkle, it will attack Mario only/first, and if the left side twinkles, it will target Luigi only/first. Sometimes one will throw its boomerang directly at Mario or Luigi, which after reaching him, will come back for the enemy to reclaim, occasionally attempting to hit the opposite brother on its way back. At other times, however, one will throw its boomerang off-screen; and when this happens, the boomerang will come back, attempting to hit one of the brothers before the owner can catch it again. The boomerangs can cause the [[trip]] ailment.

They are capable of dropping [[List of clothing in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga|Oho Gear]] in Japanese versions of ''Superstar Saga''; this item was unused in the original English release, being buried in the game's code despite being fully functional.
