'''Boomerang Bros.''', also called '''Boomerang Brothers''', are a type of [[Koopa]] that, like [[Hammer Bro.|Hammer Bros.]], specialize in the use of a certain item as a weapon. Instead of throwing [[Hammer]]s like the Hammer Bros., Boomerang Bros. use [[Boomerang]]s that move back and forth to them. They are not as commonly found in the ''Mario'' series as their Hammer Bro. cousins.

The physical appearance of Boomerang Bros. has changed throughout the series. Early artwork depicts them identically to Hammer Bros. of that era, with orange skin, along with black shells and helmets. The Boomerang Bros. in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' appear to be based on this colouration. In ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and its remakes, they have green skin and striped underbellies. ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' started the trend of depicting Boomerang Bros. with yellow skin and blue shells and helmets. Most games since have retained this depiction.
