| |series={{uv|Metal Gear}} | | The '''Cardboard box''' is an item that appears in all three of [[Solid Snake|Snake]]'s [[taunt]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and it was first introduced in the E3 2006 trailer, with Snake hiding in it. It also has its own [[trophy]]. The box can be grabbed like an item, ending the taunt. In the Metal Gear games, Snake uses the box on his missions to sneak around without being spotted by guards. |

| The '''cardboard box''' is an [[item]] that is spawned by all of [[Snake]]'s [[taunt]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. By using any of his taunts, Snake crouches under a cardboard box, which he removes either after another input is pressed, or after a set period of time. | | ==In taunts== |
| | | All three taunts involve Snake crouching under, then lifting the cardboard box off his body. The box Snake uses in ''Brawl'' has a [[Smash Ball]] icon with the words "Smash Bros" printed by the side and the infamous "!" from the ''[[Metal Gear]]'' franchise on the front and the back underneath the handles. Unlike in most of the MGS series, it has no bottom flaps. The Cardboard Box deals 1%-2% damage if it hits anyone - all three of Snake's taunts can damage. The only other damaging taunt in the game is Luigi's. If the box is picked up by another player, it will instantly be thrown in the direction that was held, much like performing a [[grab]] on most enemies in the [[Subspace Army]]. The box cannot be carried by any character except [[Donkey Kong (SSBB)|Donkey Kong]]. Contrary to his games, Snake can still be detected by the searchlight on the [[Shadow Moses Island ]] stage while in his box. |

| [[FIle:Cardboardbox_2.jpg|thumb|The cardboard box can be used to damage an opponent.]]
| |
| The cardboard box can uniquely deal minimal damage (1%-2%) and low knockback if it hits opponents, making Snake one of four characters that can damage opponents with his taunt, alongside [[Luigi]], [[Greninja]], and [[Kazuya]]. Any character can pick up the box before Snake removes it; they will lift the box like a heavy item, but they will automatically throw it when it is picked up. [[Donkey Kong]]'s unique heavy-item mechanics, however, can allow him to carry the box around and throw it at will. Villager and Isabelle can pocket it for later use, and Kirby can also do this if he copies either one of those characters. Unusually, removing the box does not interrupt the taunt's duration. | |
| | |
| A [[Cardboard box glitch|glitch]] exists where a player can generate an infinite number of boxes at once using the [[Stage Builder]].

| |
| Snake must often sneak around enemy territory undetected in the ''Metal Gear'' series. One reoccurring way to avoid detection by guards in industrial areas is to hide under a cardboard box in order to not catch their attention, as well as potentially sneak past them or covertly subdue them. However, Snake must be careful not to be caught moving while under the box. Its first appearance was in ''Metal Gear'' and calling Big Boss while within the room where the player obtains the box leads to him mockingly asking if the player is moving house. Ironically, Big Boss himself had made use of it during ''Snake Eater'', back when he was known as Naked Snake.

|
| The design of boxes in the ''Metal Gear'' series varies depending on their location. As a result, the box in ''Smash'' has no real origin and is instead composed entirely of meta-elements: it has the [[Super Smash Bros. logo|''Super Smash Bros.'' logo]] with "Smash Bros" printed on the long sides and a "!" on the short sides.
| | Solid Snake can be seen inside of the Cardboard Box trophy. |

Both Liquid and Solid Snake have a deep affection for cardboard.'' |
