Krang

Krang, also known as Krangby when his machine is controlled by Kirby, is a mid-boss who appears in Contrabobo. He hails from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Origin[]

Krang is an evil brain-like alien who controls a human-like robot from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. His sprite in Abobo's Big Adventure hails from the third Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles NES game, The Manhattan Project.

In The Game[]

Krang and his robot appears in the last part of the Jungle section of Contrabobo. He'll move around and launch one of his rocket arms at Abobo, which can attach back. It takes several hits for Abobo to defeat Krang, normally, or with either the Machine, Flamethrower, Lemming, and Spread Guns. After Krang and his robot are defeated by Abobo, Kirby arrives (via floating in the air, on either the right or left of the screen) to inhale and eat Krang alive before floating into his machine to control it, forming a giant robot hybrid between Kirby and Krang's robot named Krangby, thus starting the boss battle between him and Abobo.

Krangby's first attack is firing his rocket arm away to attach it back to his body. His second attack involves Krang's robot firing lasers from his eye glasses. During his third attack, Kirby will spit out a Bundle and inhale it back inside its mouth. Abobo has to attack the machine's head, Kirby, and the robotic arm, which can take a lot of hits, even using any powerups. If either the machine's robotic arm or head are defeated, depending on the order, they will break off of the body. If Kirby is defeated before Abobo destroys the head of Krang's robot, and Krangby entirely, will be unable to move. When Krangby is defeated, the giant robot falls down to the ground, leaving Kirby to pop out and escape to the Waterfall section of Contrabobo (via floating away in the air, once again), followed by Abobo.
