#{{User|Walkazo}} - Per [[Talk:Boomerang_Bro#Separate_M.26L:SS_Boomerang_Bro..3F|my arguments for splitting the page in the first place]] and my reasons for opposing the first TPP that tried to merge them back (the next section of that talk page). Having a plant growing out of their heads is a fairly significant departure from normal Boomerang Bros: it's ''more'' speculative to say it's "just a helmet" when bare-headed species like [[Troopea]]s and [[Lakipea]]s also have plants growing out of their heads as their main departures from the classic enemies. That's not the only difference anyway: even the basic build of the species is in direct opposition to ''M&L:SS'''s [[:File:Superstar_Saga_Hammer_Bros..png|stocky depiction of Hammer Bros.]], which are typically identical to Boomerang Bros in their shared appearances save for shell colour and weapon choice, yet look ''nothing'' like these guys. I don't know why they weren't renamed in English or Japanese, but they ''do'' have different names in Spanish, French and Italian, and those PAL translators have the right idea because these guys are just as much separate, Beanish counterparts to the classic Koopa species as the universally renamed enemies. | |||

It seems these were separated because they look fairly different from the standard appearance of Boomerang Bros., and the names are not exact in every language. For one thing, the original Mario & Luigi spritework noticeably deviated a bit from the norm, so I don't think the thinner, sunglasses-wearing Boomerang Bros. should be separated on that merit (plus, saying that they are Beanish relatives based on the leaves on their helmets is bordering on speculation). Second, there are already plenty of existing articles where alternate foreign names are simply treated as "names in other languages" and noted as being specific to a particular title, so the differing French and Italian names can be identified in parenthesis (as the Spanish names already do in the main article).

- LinkTheLefty (talk) Per proposal.
Oppose
- Walkazo (talk) - Per my arguments for splitting the page in the first place and my reasons for opposing the first TPP that tried to merge them back (the next section of that talk page). Having a plant growing out of their heads is a fairly significant departure from normal Boomerang Bros: it's more speculative to say it's "just a helmet" when bare-headed species like Troopeas and Lakipeas also have plants growing out of their heads as their main departures from the classic enemies. That's not the only difference anyway: even the basic build of the species is in direct opposition to M&L:SS's stocky depiction of Hammer Bros., which are typically identical to Boomerang Bros in their shared appearances save for shell colour and weapon choice, yet look nothing like these guys. I don't know why they weren't renamed in English or Japanese, but they do have different names in Spanish, French and Italian, and those PAL translators have the right idea because these guys are just as much separate, Beanish counterparts to the classic Koopa species as the universally renamed enemies.
