Megaleg is a supporting antagonist and boss in the 2007 video game Super Mario Galaxy and is set to appear in the 2026 movie based on the same game.
He is a gigantic robot which is powered by a Grand Star.
Physical appearance[]
Megaleg is a tripodal robot. Across his legs, he has luminescent arrows pointing towards his reactor core. The reactor is a glass dome (which traps a Grand Star) protected by chain-link fencing. He has Bullet Bill launchers dotted across his body. He has large circular headlamps which resemble eyes on his central body.
Biography[]
Background[]
After Bowser steals the Power Stars from the Comet Observatory, Bowser Jr. receives some and uses a Grand Star to create and power up his robot, Megaleg. Megaleg is stored on a small moon where he waits for Mario/Luigi to arrive to kill them.
Super Mario Galaxy[]
In the level Bowser Jr.'s Robot Reactor, Mario/Luigi arrive on a quiet moon where Megaleg is stored. After scaling Megaleg's body, Bowser Jr. arrives and tells Megaleg to begin his attack.
Megaleg's attacks centre around firing Bullet Bills at Mario/Luigi. However, Mario/Luigi use the Bullet Bills to break down the protective fencing. Megaleg responds by activating his barriers and fire more Bullet Bills at Mario/Luigi. Instead of hitting him, Mario/Luigi have the Bullet Bills break through the barriers and eventually breaks the glass reactor. With the reactor destroyed, Megaleg shuts down and blows up within the remains of his body blowing up to scrap, giving Mario/Luigi the Grand Star and increasing the Comet Observatory's power source.
At some point before the events of Super Mario Galaxy 2, Bowser Jr. creates a similar model to Megaleg named Digga-Leg.
