—Pause-screen description, Kirby Super Star Ultra
Wham Bam Jewel is the final boss of Helper to Hero. He appears immediately after Wham Bam Rock is defeated. He is also faced in The True Arena as part of the final four. His origins, like Wham Bam Rock, are essentially unknown but is portrayed as being of royalty, as evidenced by his description and appearance. He is the eighth boss Kirby must face in The True Arena.
He has basically the same attacks that his rock-based relative has, though they differ a bit (for instance, he sends down jewels instead of rocks, though they still give the stone ability) and also has his own moves as well. For example, he can shoot energy blasts from his index finger in very much the same way as Master Hand (though he can fire multiple shots at a time, and this move requires only one finger). And when he punches, it is much stronger than normal. Sometimes, instead of dropping jewels, he will instead drop bombs resembling three-eyed tiki heads (which give the Bomb ability, obviously). He can also punch in an upside-down arch with his hand on fire.
[edit] Physical Appearance
Wham Bam Jewel is similar in appearance to Wham Bam Rock, but looks a bit more organic and lively, like Wham Bam Rock's SNES version. It has three eyes, bright purple nostrils, fangs, and its fists are made of diamonds instead of rock. It wears a ton of extravagant jewelry which sways from side to side during the battle. Its crown is also also different. Instead of Aztec-looking headgear, it wears what resembles a common crown encrusted with jewels. Like both versions of Wham Bam Rock, the rest of its body is hidden away in the darkness. However, in The True Arena intro, the full version of him can be seen. In the intro, he is still seen without a body, but it does show a more detailed view of its crown. The upper part of its crown is made of puffy red velvet.
