Background

Tubba Blubba is a giant, blue-colored Spike with a spiked shell. He is a follower of Bowser who, despite his fearsome appearance, is actually very sensitive, frail, and cowardly. His nickname is "The Invincible Tubba Blubba", although he actually does have a weak point: his heart. Tubba Blubba's name is a corruption of "tub of blubber" (indicating obesity).

Tubba's Heart is, as the name implies, the heart of Tubba Blubba removed by Bowser and hidden in the Windy Mill. After having his heart removed, Tubba Blubba became invincible, the heart controlling the body as if he were a puppet. However, Mario discovers the heart, and the two battle. It is the first half of Chapter 3's boss in Paper Mario.
