''Nintendo 64 Game Secrets, 1999 Edition'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Pages 101 and 102. "''When smelling a Question Mark Box fails to excite Yoshi, you know how you have to get creative. In this course, tossing an egg at the odorless Question Mark Box (like the second one) causes a Balloon-in-the-Box to pop out. Smacking his X-shaped bandage with two eggs will make him burst, thus freeing the melon he’s hoarding.''"</ref> and once referred to as a '''[[Balloon Bully]]''',<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Issue 104, [https://www.superluigibros.com/images/media/nintendopower/104_yoshistoryfeature//yoshis_story_nintendopower104_pg7.jpg page 16.]</ref> are giant pink balloons that appear out of [[Mystery Crate]]s in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. An Air Bag can be revealed by shooting an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]] at an unmovable crate. Air Bags attack by blowing air at a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]. To defeat one, the Yoshi must throw an egg at the bandages on its belly. Air quickly rushes out of the Air Bag, which shrinks until it disappears, leaving a [[melon]]. Air Bags appear only in the level [[Surprise!!]] | ||
An Air Bag also appears in the [[Super Mario-kun Volume 19|19th volume]] of the ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' manga as an obstacle protecting a [[Special Heart]]. [[Yoshi (species)|Red Yoshi]] defeats it when one of his shoes accidentally flies off and impacts the Air Bag's bandage. | |||
