The Blast Box (爆薬箱(ばくやくばこ), bakuyaku bako: literally, explosive box) is a heavy item which has the appearance of a crate with a fire hazard label on its sides. When destroyed, the box will explode with typical fire properties and great knockback, often KOing anyone too close. It usually takes multiple hits to destroy it, but it detonates instantly when attacked with a fire-based attack. This item can also be picked up and thrown a short distance. Although it is a heavy item, it can appear out of carriers such as Barrels and Capsules.

A Blast Box does have a slight amount of tactical strength when playing a match with items. It can be remotely detonated by using ranged attacks (especially fire-based ones) and thus, with a well placed projectile and good timing, it can be detonated while an opponent is near. Effective Blast-Box-detonating projectiles include Mario's Fireballs, Link's Bombs, and a smash attack with a Red Pikmin. (A Blast Box can also be detonated by a Red Pikmin latching onto someone walking by.)

Trophy Description

Blast Box trophy

An explosive-filled box that will detonate when the box is broken. The box can be smashed with normal attacks and will also catch fire and blow up if it's exposed to any flame. Unlike ordinary crates, blast boxes do not change their appearance from stage to stage. There's one fundamental rule when dealing with these items: be out of range when they blow.
