Template:Enemy The Mad Bumper (マッドバンパー, Maddo Banpā) is an alternatively colored Hot Rod that appears in the Cavern of Remembrance, also being slightly stronger. This Heartless only appears in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix.

Design

A Mad Bumper is meant to resemble a cartoonish version of real-world cars. Its body is primarily red, and its roof is black with orange flames and a bent, black antenna on its top. Its four black tires are set rather close together and have purple hubcaps, and its fenders are silver. The white grill of the car acts as the Heartless's sharp-toothed mouth. It also has two headlights with yellow tips that act as its "eyes", though it has actual, glowing yellow eyes set in its black windshield. Its Heartless emblem is actually its hood ornament.

The Mad Bumper's name references its berserk, erratic rages when it is low on health. A "bumper" is a car part meant to absorb the shock of an impact.

Strategy

Unlike the Hot Rod, the Mad Bumper executes all its moves at a much faster pace, attacking more relentlessly than ever. When half of its HP bar is depleted, a purple aura appears around it — watch out! It will rev up and rush towards you, and if you're in the way, it will send you flying. It does this rush attack thrice, and pauses for a while before it begins rushing towards you once again.

In all cases, when it attacks you, hit . A well-timed Guard can save you from being sent flying once it rushes towards you. When it pauses, it is open for an attack, so finish it off.

Alternatively, if you're the type to use magic, use Reflega, and make sure that the edges of that spell hit the Mad Bumper - but time it well.
