'''Monty Tank'''<ref>Loe, Casey. ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Player's Guide. Page 14.</ref> is the boss of [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' Like his name suggests, Monty Tank is a [[Monty Mole]] who drives a giant green [[tank]].
'''Monty Tank'''<ref>Loe, Casey. ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Player's Guide. Page 14.</ref> is the [[Monty Mole]] and [[tank]] boss of [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' The tank can be destroyed by [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] [[stomp]]ing Monty's head three times, when his head is exposed. Monty's head is exposed when he comes out of the tank to throw [[Bob-omb]]s at the player. These bombs can be thrown at Monty while his head is exposed to cause damage. Each time the tank is hit, it will spin and quickly move back and forth along the ground. While doing so, it has an alarm sound go off and fires [[Bullet Bill]]s from its turrets at multiple levels, depending on how many times it has been damaged. Each time it is hit, one more level is added to the tank, making it taller. Like the other bosses in the game, a [[Ground Pound|ground pound]] counts as two hits; if Mario uses a ground pound on the first hit, two levels will be added, while ground pounding on the second hit will immediately defeat the tank. Mario and Luigi can also defeat it by just jumping onto the tank using a [[Mega Mushroom]]. The tank is invincible when Monty's head is not exposed. If the player stands on top of the tank, it spins back and forth to get them off it, while firing Bullet Bills and its alarm sound going off.

*While internal data labels <tt>choropu</tt> (Monty Mole) separate from <tt>chorotank</tt> (Monty Tank), the [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]] attributes the name "Monty Tank" to the Monty Mole himself.
*Monty Tank is similar to the Monty Mole bossesboss in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', who similarly made use of [[cannon (Super Mario Sunshine)|Bullet Bill-shooting weapons]] and threwthrowing Bob-ombs.
**Monty Tank is also the second Monty Mole boss in the series.
