Bigger Stactus[derived from Japanese][1] is a Mid-Boss in Kirby Mass Attack. It appears in Sandy Canyon - Stage 3, in a sand-filled room at the very end of the stage. Unlike other Stactuses, the Bigger Stactus has body segments of its own, which don't amount to other individual Stactuses. Otherwise, its head is the same size as a Big Stactus.
The Kirbys have to face down three Bigger Stactuses in the chamber where they appear, one at a time. Each one will burrow and appear from out of the ground, attempting to crash into the Kirbys in the process. The heads are initially spiked, but eventually they will lower their guard, allowing the Kirbys to attack the heads. The body is spiked at all times, and should not be touched. Defeating Bigger Stactus confers 5,000 points onto the player.
Bigger Stactus is faced again as an enemy in Survival Rush, as one of the options behind the one-Kirby door.
