==Character description==
Thwomps, at least when they were first introduced, look like large stone cubes with faces and spikes along their vertical perimeter. They typically operate as traps under [[Bowser]]'s employ and wait suspended in midair until when Mario goes into a Thwomp's general vicinity, during which a Thwomp will crash down to the ground with swift force in an attempt to crush Mario. Thwomps are large, but there is a small, nimbler variant called a Thwimp which bounces around, which Kirby can produce with [[Stone]].
 
==In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''==
The type of large Thwomp that appears in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''Super Mario World'' makes a cameo appearance in this game.
 
===As a trophy===

The large Thwomp appears in ''Melee'' as one of the many trophies that can be collected like "normal" trophies, meaning that it can be found sooner or later through the [[Trophy Lottery]] and/or by playing [[Snag the Trophies]] in [[Classic Mode]]:
 
:'''Thwomp'''
:''Thwomps spend most of their time suspended in midair, waiting. When Mario passes below, they crash down with amazing speed. As you may guess from their appearance, they're heavy and solid enough to make any attack on them futile. Small ones are called Thwimps: despite their weight, they often form groups and bounce around.'' (''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' 02/90)
