Bob-omb is a small, ambulatory explosive device. He is usually depicted as a black powder grenade with a wind-up key in his back. Bob-omb's first appearance was in Super Mario Bros 2 for the NES, where he could be pulled up out of the ground, and thrown from above by Albatoss. He then reappeared in Super Mario Bros 3, and has since become a mainstay of the Mushroom Kingdom.
Many of the following games spawned new Bob-omb species. The Paper Mario games introduced different types that had different times on their fuses and caused different amounts of damage. Some of the Bob-ombs in those games appeared as NPCs that had a role in the story. Super Mario World introduced the Para-bomb, a Bob-omb that fell to the ground with a parachute.
Bob-omb made a cameo appearance in the Super Mario Bros movie. There they looked like small wind-up toys. They were used to add the prerequisite explosions to the climax of the film; conveniently, they had a fuse that ran down at the most dramatic moment possible.

Mechanical bomb that will chase you for a short time until it blows up. I wonder what is going on in their heads.
