| “ | Sandbag exists for one reason only: to get smashed in the Home-Run Contest. Pound on Sandbag as much as possible in the time allotted, then swing for the fences as you compete for the longest home run of all time. Getting hit doesn't hurt Sandbag at all. As a matter of fact, it loves to see players wind up and let loose. | „ |

| “ | An item that appears in the Home-Run Contest, where the goal is to do lots of damage to Sandbag, then send it flying as far as you can. It also appears in the regular game. If you smash it, a storm of confetti and items will burst out. Sandbag doesn't feel pain, though; in fact, it's happy to be of service. | „ |

| “ | This little guy is great for getting in some practice against. In Home-Run Contest you'll send it flying, and in normal battles it has a habit of dropping items when you lay into it. Sandbag seems pretty content with being your punching bag, so it'd almost be mean not to go all out on it. | „ |

| “ | This little guy is pretty good to practise with! In the Home-Run Contest, the goal is to attack Sandbag and then whack him as hard as you can to send him flying! He even appears in normal matches, where you can hit him to get lots of food and items. Don't worry, though - he loves to help out. It doesn't even hurt him at all! | „ |

Sandbag is a character from the Stadium game Home-Run Contest in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It also appears as an item during matches in Brawl, SSB4, and Ultimate.
Sandbag made its debut in Melee, alongside the new Home-Run Contest event. In the mode, players are given ten seconds to hit Sandbag as far as possible using a Home-Run Bat. Sandbag is given a visible damage percentage in this mode, as to allow players to estimate how far it will travel when hit by the Home-Run Bat.
Sandbag is considered a character, allowing the game to record its damage percentage and allowing players to grab it. Sandbag can also be controlled by a human player through the use of the debug menu. However, a majority of its moveset is not programmed, as it is not intended to move or otherwise act as a standard combatant. As a result, attempting to attack, midair jump, or shield with it will cause the game to freeze. In addition, Sandbag cannot be KOed, even after passing the blast lines, and it can eventually crash the game if it falls too far beyond them, as the game will eventually be unable to calculate its position on the screen. As Sandbag lacks animations for moving and jumping, it uses its idle stance for such movements.

| Daybreak | Appears in three pieces that must be collected all at once; characters can lose pieces from their possession when hit or KO'd.

| Freezie | Slides across the stage, freezing characters when struck by it. Can be destroyed before being picked up. |
| Golden Hammer | Acts the same as the regular Hammer, though faster, more powerful and with the ability to float. May be a dud Squeaky Hammer that deals no damage at all. |

| Maxim Tomato | The third most powerful recovery item, healing up to 50% damage (in the original Super Smash Bros., it can heal up to 100% damage). |
| Metal Box | Turns the user metallic, increasing their weight and falling speed, while also reducing the chances of flinching. Can be activated by pickup or by direct attack; indirect attacks will either destroy it (in Melee) or do nothing (other games). |
| Motion-Sensor Bomb | Attaches to the stage once thrown; characters that approach it after a short time cause it to explode. |
| Mr. Saturn | Walks around the stage and can be knocked about by attacks. Deals massive damage to shields when thrown, but only minor damage otherwise. |
| Ore Club | An extremely powerful club made of stone that produces tornadoes when swung. Grants super armor when used as a forward smash. |
| Parasol | Reduces the holder's falling speed, allowing them to glide slowly left and right, potentially improving recovery. |
| Party Ball | Once activated by being thrown or damaged, it floats into the air and opens, dropping its items. |

| Red Shell | When thrown, attacked, or landed on, slides across the stage and damages everything it hits. Aims for nearby characters and avoids sliding off edges. |
| Rocket Belt | Can be equipped and used to increase upward momentum at will, similar to R.O.B.'s up-special. |
| Rolling Crate | When thrown, struck, or landing on a hill, it will roll across the stage and damage what it hits without breaking, though it will break with enough force. Can be stood on. |
| Sandbag | When attacked, produces items. |
| Screw Attack | Turns the holder's jumps into Screw Attacks. In Melee, applies for as long as the holder keeps the item, and a forced Screw Attack will be applied to those the item is thrown at. In Brawl, applies until the item wears off and does not need to be held in-hand once picked up. |
| Smart Bomb | Produces a large explosion when thrown or attacked. Has a chance to be a dud, though it can still explode if hit or thrown again. |
| Smash Ball | Flies around the stage. Characters must break in order to obtain. Once broken, player presses their neutral special button to use their Final Smash. Will fly off-stage after a short period if not obtained and used. |
| Smoke Ball | Once thrown, spews smoke around its immediate area. May stick to opponents. |
| Soccer Ball | Cannot be picked up. When attacked, it careens in the knockback direction with high damage and knockback. |
| Special Flag | Can be held above the user's head for a long period to gain either a KO point in a timed match or a stock in a stock match. Unlike other items, this one will always be dropped if the user is hit while holding it. |
| Spiny Shell | Commonly known as the 'Blue Shell'. Hovers above a player before dropping onto them and exploding. Can be dodged, or it can hit someone other than its intended target on descent. |
| Spring | When idle, repels characters when touched depending on whether it is upright or sideways. |
| Staff | Shoots a beam. The farther the opponent is, the more damage it deals. |
| Star Rod | Has a limited supply of long-range star shots produced on f-tilt or f-smash. |
| Steel Diver | A smaller gun-like version of the Steel Diver from the self-titled game for the Nintendo 3DS. Fires a torpedo which travels slowly at first. Deals no shield damage whatsoever. |
| Super Launch Star | Can be set in midair, where it will attract and launch any characters that get too close to it. The launch has the potential to KO fighters. |
| Super Leaf | Gives the user raccoon ears and tail. Allows the user to float in mid-air using the jump button. |
| Super Mushroom | Slides across the stage. When touched, enlarges the character. |
| Super Scope | Can shoot a total of 48 small rapid-fire pulses of energy or charge 3 large blobs of energy. |
| Super Star | Bounces across the stage, and makes whoever it touches invulnerable to all damage and knockback for a short time. Users can still be KO'd if they fall off the stage with it. |
| Superspicy Curry | Causes the user to constantly shoot short-range fireballs and be incapable of walking slowly. |
| Team Healer | Heals teammates when thrown at them. When thrown at opponents, can heal or damage them at random. Only appears during team battles. |
| Timer | Slows down all opponents. Can backfire and slow down the user, or slow down the entire game. |
| Unira | Attaches to the stage once thrown or attacked and pokes opponents that come near. Can be set or reset with a direct attack; indirect ones do nothing. |
| Warp Star | Once picked up, the user flies into the sky and then crashes down with an explosion. Can be steered slightly, and if there are platforms above, will land there instead of the starting point. |
| X Bomb | Creates a cross-shaped explosion that spans most of the screen. |
Standard Tactics: Sandbag will sit around allowing itself to be hit, once it’s hit an item will fall out of it, with some of them being instantaneous explosions that can tag and KO the smash characters.
Weaknesses: Loves to be hit and will not directly attack back.
Note: The attack that Tabuu used to one-shot the entire Smash cast is far above his regular attacks and this is further proven in-game as when he uses this same attack it one-shots whoever is on-screen thus arguing that they should not scale to Tabuu because he one-shotted them is not accurate as it's with a very specific attack.
None.
None.
None.
