Bull's-Eye Banzai: Difference between revisions
(I wouldn't say "originally known as King Bill"; that was an old Prima name also used for Banzai Bills, and if mentioned, it should be left to Trivia.) |

Template:Species-infobox Bull's-Eye Banzais are the red heat-seeking variants of Banzai Bills and a larger variety of Bull's-Eye Bills. They attack by homing in on the player.
History
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Bull's-Eye Banzais only appear in World 9-3 of New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Unlike Missile Bill, they only have a limited homing ability where they will track their target's vertical position and then continue forward once they reach that height. Their animation is very limited as well, always maintaining a horizontal position and never turning to point at their target.
The player can defeat it by simply jumping on its head, or by running into it with a Super Star. Also, a King Bill cannot be frozen by an ice ball; it will break the ice and release itself when the ice ball reaches it. Likewise, POW Blocks are useless against them.
Bull's-Eye Banzais are never seen being fired from a Banzai Bill Cannon; however, an unfinished setting exists suggesting some cannons would have fired them.
Super Mario 3D World
Although no actual Bull's-Eye Banzais show up in Super Mario 3D World, another Banzai Bill variant, the Cat Banzai Bill, behaves similarly.
Super Mario Maker 2
This section is referring to a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this section may need major rewriting. This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the game was first released.
Bull's-Eye Banzais appear as a placeable enemy in Super Mario Maker 2. Unlike previously, they can move on every angle, like the Bull's-Eye Bill, and the marks on their eyes are red, like the normal Banzai Bill, instead of black. In a vein similar to Banzai Bills, Bull's-Eye Banzais also receive new designs for all of the present game styles, barring New Super Mario Bros. U, in which their designs are mostly retained from New Super Mario Bros. Wii, albeit in high-definition and with the new marks around their eyes.
