The Boomerang Monkey is a [[tower]] that throws a curved boomerang in an arc that returns to it if its [[pierce]] is not exhausted.

Likely based off the [[Rang Bloon]] from [[Bloons (game)|''Bloons'']], the tower was introduced in ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 2]]'' as the Boomerang. It ~~has 2 pierce and two~~ [[~~Upgrade|upgrades~~]] in that ~~game, one that increases its pierce~~ to ~~5 and one that allows it to pop~~ [[Freeze|frozen]] Bloons.

Likely based off the [[Rang Bloon]] from [[Bloons (game)|''Bloons'']], the tower was introduced in ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 2]]'' as the Boomerang. It is the only non-[[Bomb Shooter]] tower that has access to [[Freeze|frozen]] Bloon popping. In [[Bloons TD 4|''Bloons TD 4'']], the Boomerang Thrower's ultimate upgrade is the [[Lightsabre Thrower]], allowing it to pop up to 70 Bloons of any type per shot.

~~In [[Bloons Tower Defense 3|''Bloons Tower Defense 3'']], the Boomerang gains two more upgrades, one increasing its pierce to 8 and one allowing it to pop [[Lead Bloon|Lead Bloons]].~~

In [[Bloons TD 5|''Bloons TD 5'']], it has two paths that both focus on DPS. The top path focuses on amount of Bloons popped, while the bottom path focuses on attack speed. Its [[Specialty Building]] in ''BTD5'' is the [[Boomerang Dojo]], while its main buildings in [[Bloons Monkey City|''Bloons Monkey City'']] are the [[Boomerang Hut]] and [[Monkey Academy (BMC)|Monkey Academy]] (in the [[Bloons Monkey City (Flash)|Flash version]]) or the [[Boomerang Institute]] (in the [[Bloons Monkey City (mobile)|mobile version]]).

~~In [[Bloons TD 4|''Bloons TD 4'']], the Boomerang Thrower's ultimate upgrade is the [[Lightsabre Thrower]], allowing it to pop up to 70 Bloons of any type per shot.~~

In [[Bloons TD 5|''Bloons TD 5'']], it has two paths, both ~~focusing~~ on DPS. The top path focuses on amount of Bloons popped~~, ending with [[Glaive Lord (BTD5)|Glaive Lord]]~~, while the bottom path focuses on attack speed~~, ending with [[Turbo Charge (BTD5)|Turbo Charge]]~~. Its [[Specialty Building]] in ''BTD5'' is the [[Boomerang Dojo]], while its main buildings in [[Bloons Monkey City|''Bloons Monkey City'']] are the [[Boomerang Hut]] and [[Monkey Academy (BMC)|Monkey Academy]] (in the [[Bloons Monkey City (Flash)|Flash version]]) or the [[Boomerang Institute]] (in the [[Bloons Monkey City (mobile)|mobile version]]).

In [[Bloons TD 6|''Bloons TD 6'']], the Boomerang Monkey's two paths from ''BTD5'' return in slightly modified form, and a third path is added focusing on firing in straight lines and [[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB]] knockback.

The Boomerang Monkey appears as a Common [[Ally (BATTD)|ally]] in [[Bloons Adventure Time TD|''Bloons Adventure Time TD'']]. It functions much the same as previous iterations, ~~though its only two upgrades increases its pierce from 3 to 7~~ and ~~popping~~ all ~~Bloon types~~.{{Gameplay links|BTD3 link=Boomerang (BTD3)|BTD3 image=BTD2 boomerang button.svg|BTD4 link=Boomerang Thrower (BTD4)|BTD4 image=BTD4HD boomerang unlock.png|BTD5 link=Boomerang Thrower (BTD5)|BTD5 image=BTD5M boomerang icon.png|BTD6 link=Boomerang Monkey (BTD6)|BTD6 image=BTD6 000-BoomerangMonkeyInsta.png|BTDB link=Boomerang Thrower (Battles)|BTDB image=BTD5M boomerang icon.png|BTDB2 link=Boomerang Monkey (Battles 2)|BTDB2 image=BTDB2 000 boomerang monkey.png|BMC link=Boomerang Thrower (BMC)|BMC image=BTD5M boomerang icon.png|BATTD link=Boomerang Monkey (BATTD)|BATTD image=BATTD MinionBoomerangPortrait.png}}
