B.O.B. is a massive laser cannon that sucks the life force out of beings and stores the force in a container. When enough is stored up, it can be used to give life back to the undead. [[Gruntilda]] was planning on using this machine to remake her body. She first used it to drain [[King Jingaling]]'s life force, rendering him zombie-like in the process. Then, she decided to blast the whole island, not caring that it would take long enough for [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] to reach her. After the [[Tower of Tragedy]] Quiz, Kazooie reversed the effects and restored Jingaling and [[Bottles]], though the latter wasn't a victim of the laser. Unlike how [[Banjo-Kazooie]] ended, where Grunty would use the machine if the player saved and quit, B.O.B. is not used by her other than sucking out King Jingaling's life force.

The Big O' Blaster (B.O.B.) is a doomsday weapon built by Mingella and Blobbelda in Banjo-Tooie. The machine can suck the life force out of anything shot by its energy beam, reducing objects to a monochrome state and zombifying living creatures. This process also works in reverse, providing there is enough life force stored for the target.

Mingella and Blobbelda intended to revive their undead sister Gruntilda after being killed by Banjo and Kazooie. Once rescued, Grunty used B.O.B. to suck the life force from King Jingaling and his palace. But since Grunty is not slim, Jingaling's life force wasn't enough for her. She decided to blast the entire Isle O' Hags, which was possible, but only after a charge-up that took so long that Banjo and Kazooie reached Cauldron Keep before it could fire. Once the pair beat back Grunty and her sisters, Kazooie restored the life force to Jingaling's palace and also Bottles, who was killed much earlier. Where the "extra" life force that saved Bottles came from is unknown.
