'''Heavy Lobster''' is a boss | '''Heavy Lobster''' is a large, gold-colored, mechanical, lobster-like boss most notably recognized for his role protecting the [[Halberd]] in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''. Equipped with rocket boosters and flamethrowers, he has the ability to charge through walls and deploy miniature versions of himself (similar to [[Heavy Mole]]). Additionally, Heavy Lobster can shoot out a goopy substance that gives [[Kirby]] the [[Paint]] [[Copy Ability]] which can be used to blind Heavy Lobster. In ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', a more resilient silver variant of Heavy Lobster serves as the boss of the [[Mekkai]] stage in [[Milky Way Wishes]]. | ||

Heavy Lobster is fought twice in [[Revenge of Meta Knight]]. The first battle is interrupted by the Halberd taking off (which destroys Heavy Lobster), but Heavy Lobster is fought and defeated later. His explosion knocks off the Halberd's left wing. During the second fight with Heavy Lobster, if Kirby uses the [[Paint]] ability, he can blind the beast, making him unable to aim properly. The crew of the Halberd will comment on this in dismay, in an exchange that can be considered an [[Easter egg]]. Heavy Lobster is fought a third time in [[Milky Way Wishes]], where he appears as the boss of [[Mekkai]]. | Heavy Lobster is fought twice in [[Revenge of Meta Knight]].

Heavy Lobster appears as a [[monster]] in the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' episode [[Combat Kirby]]. Here, it is sent by [[eNeMeE]] to destroy the [[Halberd]] before it has a chance to reach [[eNeMeE's Fortress|his fortress]], arriving through a pod that latches on to [[Meta Knight (anime character)|Meta Knight]]'s battleship. Once it arrives, Heavy Lobster proceeds to storm the halls of the ship and make its way toward the main engine room while the crew tries to stop it. Initial attacks via missile launcher and [[Cook]] [[Kirby (anime character)|Kirby]] fail to subdue it, but it is defeated at the last possible moment when Kirby uses the [[Ice]] [[Copy Ability]] to freeze it, allowing a missile blast to shatter the monster. | Heavy Lobster appears as a [[monster]] in the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' episode [[Combat Kirby]].

Heavy Lobster is largely the same in terms of appearance and size as it is in the games. Its powers are slightly different, however, as it attacks mainly by shooting explosive laser blasts from its claws and melting walls with its heat ray | Heavy Lobster is largely the same in terms of appearance and size as it is in the games.
