In their debut appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Boomerang Brothers are green-skinned (sky blue in [[Treasure Ship]]s and {{world-link|8|tank3|World 8-Big Tanks}}) Hammer Brothers that throw multiple boomerangs that return to them. As with every other Hammer Brother variant, they face the player as they move back and forth in a small area, occasionally jumping and attacking with one or two projectiles at a time, and defeating them via [[stomp]]ing yields 1000 points, while defeating them with any other attack (hitting the block below them, [[Shell Toss|thrown shells]], [[fireball]]s, tail swipes from [[Raccoon Mario|Raccoon]] or [[Tanooki Mario]], hammers from [[Hammer Mario]], and contact with players made invincible by a [[Super Star|Starman]]) gives out only 100 points by default, unless the enemy was not one of the first to be defeated by the thrown shell. While they usually retrieve the boomerangs they throw, there are certain circumstances where they do not; namely, if the Boomerang Brother is eliminated before they can make contact with their boomerangs, if they jump over their own returning boomerangs, or if they throw their boomerang while jumping, causing it to fly over their heads upon its return (unless they jump and catch it at the last second); in these cases, the boomerangs continue traveling forward while onscreen, never looping back again.
