Outmaways are enemies that appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. They are round white enemies with feline ears, red-rimmed ski goggles, and red shoes that kick icy blocks and Shells in their way, similarly to Buster Beetles from Super Mario Bros. 3 or unshelled blue Koopas from Super Mario World. Some Outmaways walk back and forth, behaving like a Goombrat, while others are stationary. The blocks they touch do not have to be made active by Mario before they may kick them. They appear prominently in a level with their own name, Outmaway Valley, as well as A Final Uncharted Area: Poison Ruins and the Break Time! level Break Time! Kick It, Outmaway.

Outmaways can be defeated by any attack, but they can stop and kick incoming shells or Ice Blocks even if their back is turned, like the unshelled blue Koopas of Super Mario World. However, they can only deal with one Ice Block or shell at a time; likewise, they can be defeated if they are hit by an incoming Ice Block or shell while they are already preoccupied with another.
