Buster Beetles[1][2] are strong and quick-moving bipedal Buzzy Beetles who throw Ice Blocks at Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Bros. 3. The player can use any attack to instantly defeat them, as unlike most other members of the Buzzy Beetle family, Buster Beetles are not impervious to fireballs, nor do they hide in their shells when stomped. They appear in most underground cavern levels, especially in Ice Land. However, the first one that appears is at the beginning of World 5-1, which is completely devoid of Ice Blocks, and as such, the Buster Beetle simply appears as a quick-moving enemy.
A Buster Beetle appears on the box art for Super Mario Bros. Print World.
