Ice + Bomb (also called Explosive Snowman[1] or Exploding Snowman[2]) is a Power Combo used in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards made by the combination of the Ice and Bomb Copy Abilities. Kirby can place a bomb above his head and cover himself with snow; the two round segments (the bomb and Kirby's body) make up the snowman. He is also able to walk around. After a short while, or when Kirby makes contact an enemy, the bomb will explode and leave Kirby immobilized for a few seconds with his top burnt. As the bomb explodes, the snow from the snowman blowing upwards can freeze airborne enemies. It is required to get a Crystal Shard in the first stage of Aqua Star.
