'''Bowser's bogus items''' are useless items forcibly sold to partiers by [[Bowser]] in ''[[Mario Party]]'' when they pass him on a board. On [[Luigi's Engine Room]] and [[Wario's Battle Canyon]], he does not sell the player an item, but instead provides them with some worthless "service."


Bowser does not sell any useless items or provide a worthless service on either [[Bowser's Magma Mountain]] or [[Eternal Star]], where he steals either a [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]] or 20 [[coin]]s if they do not have at least one Star. He will not do anything if the player does not have any coins or Stars.
''Bowser's Bogus Items'' are useless items forcibly sold to you by Bowser in the first [[Mario Party]] game when you pass him on a board. On Luigi's Engine Room and Wario's Battle Canyon, he doesn't actually sell you an item, but instead provides you with some worthless "service." The items are:


In ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', Bowser will sell either the relevant item for the board he is encountered on, or a [[Cursed Dice Block]] for 11-20 coins instead.
*[[Mario's Rainbow Castle]]: A [[Shadow Star|Ztar]]. It should be noted that unlike Ztars later in the Mario Party series, this one does not count as a negative star.
*[[Luigi's Engine Room]]: No actual item. Charges you twenty [[Coins]] to use a machine that produces a single Coin.
*[[Peach's Birthday Cake]]: Bowser Cake.
*[[Wario's Battle Canyon]]: No actual item. Transports you to another area of the map at random.
*[[Yoshi's Tropical Island]]: Bowser Tube.
*[[DK's Jungle Adventure]]: Golden Bowser statue.

|[[DK's Jungle Adventure]]
|[[File:Golden Bowser Statuette.PNG|200px]]<br>'''Gold-plated Bowser Statue'''{{anchor|Gold-plated Bowser Statue}}
|Bowser sells this item to players for 10 coins. It looks like a miniature version of the Koopa King, and is completely worthless. A version of this statue also appears in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]''.
|-
|[[Peach's Birthday Cake]]
|[[File:MP1 Bowser Cake.png|200px]]
[[File:Bowser Cake (Superstars).png|200px]]<br>'''Bowser Cake'''{{anchor|Bowser Cake}}
|When a player gets a flower with Bowser's face on it in the [[Goomba]] lottery, they are sent to Bowser, and he forcibly gives the player this item for 20 coins. It is just a spiked [[shell]] with a candle and frosting, and cannot be eaten. In ''Mario Party Superstars'', Bowser states that the cake is made out of rocks. In this game, Bowser can give a [[Cursed Dice Block]] in exchange for 11-20 coins, or he may give coins to the player if they are in last place with no coins.
|-
|[[Yoshi's Tropical Island]]
|[[File:Bowser Tube.PNG|200px]]
[[File:Bowser Tube (Superstars).png|200px]]<br>'''Bowser Tube'''{{anchor|Bowser Tube}}
|Bowser creates an inner tube that he says will allow the player to help the Yoshi and travel over the whirlpools. However, upon being put on the player, the inner tube shrinks and then bursts around the player. Bowser demands 30 coins for buying (and in this case, popping) his merchandise, making it the second most expensive bogus item. Like [[Peach's Birthday Cake]], in ''Mario Party Superstars'', Bowser may give a Cursed Dice Block for 11-20 coins to the player, or give coins to the player if they are in last place with no coins.
|-
|[[Wario's Battle Canyon]]
|[[File:WariosBattleCanyonBowserClaw.png|200px]]<br>'''Bowser's Claws/Bowser Cannon'''{{anchor|Bowser's Claws}}
|Bowser says he will shoot the player from his Bowser Cannon, but instead uses his claws to blast the player to a random area of the board (ironically, the cannon itself is never fired until the end of the game, where the last place player is launched out of it). The player will pay 20 coins (or all their coins if they have 20 or less) for the ride, though Bowser will give it to them for free if they have zero coins.
|-
|[[Luigi's Engine Room]]
|[[File:Make As Many Coins As You Want Mecha.png|200px]]<br>'''"Make As Many Coins As You Want Mecha"'''{{anchor|"Make As Many Coins As You Want Mecha"}}
|Bowser activates this machine in order to create a coin for the player at the cost of 20 coins, thus meaning the player loses 19 coins, due to the one coin they get from the machine. Unlike other bogus items, the player character is shown to be glad over the turn of events, mostly because they at least got a coin back.
|-
|[[Mario's Rainbow Castle]]
|[[File:MP1 Bowser Ztar.png|200px]]<br>'''[[Ztar]]'''{{anchor|Ztar}}
|Bowser forces the player to buy a Ztar. Unlike Ztars later in the ''Mario Party'' series, this one does not count as a negative star. However, the Ztar costs 40 [[coin]]s as opposed to a regular [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]] costing 20, making it the most expensive of the bogus items. However, immediately after "buying" the Ztar, the player will pass [[Koopa Troopa]] and earn back 10 coins (20 in the last 5 turns or if it is the 10th time someone has passed Koopa Troopa; 30 for the 20th time; 40 for the 30th time; etc.).
