| '''Cosmic Clones''' are shadowy duplicates of [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] that first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They copy Mario or Luigi's every move, even his death animation if he loses a life. They appear to be a successor to [[Cosmic Mario]]: They are strikingly similar to it, sharing the same voice as it, and their theme is the [[Prankster Comet#Cosmic Comet|Cosmic Comet]] theme from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' (a {{wp|semitone|half step}} higher pitch and an edited opening section, which in turn is a cover version of the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] and [[Underground Theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' The only difference is their color and the Cosmic Clones' glowing yellow eyes.

|
| ==History==
| | '''Cosmic Clones''' are shadowy duplicates of [[Mario]] that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Cosmic Clones are created once a certain point is reached in a [[galaxy]] and will follow behind Mario, performing every movement Mario makes. Once a certain task is met, such as collecting all five [[Star Chip]]s, or find an object they will disappear. If Mario touches a clone, he will take damage. [[Boards (Super Mario Galaxy)|Boards]] usually warn the plumber that Cosmic Clones are present in the area. Cosmic Clones also are able to walk where there is no platform if it is necessary for following Mario. |
| ===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
| |
| In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Cosmic Clones are created once a certain point is reached in a [[galaxy]] and follow behind Mario or Luigi, mimicking every movement he makes. [[Boards (characters)|Boards]] usually warn Mario and Luigi that Cosmic Clones are present in the area, although they also appear when a [[Prankster Comet#Clone Comet|Clone Comet]] orbits a galaxy.
| |
|
| |
|
| Cosmic Clones mimic whatever Mario or Luigi does, even if the landscape has recently been changed. For example, they can [[jump]] on a [[platform]] where Mario or Luigi was standing, even if it has disappeared or moved. If Mario or Luigi gets hit by a clone, he receives damage and the clone vanishes, with the rest of the clones then mimicking the player character taking damage. Once the way forward is revealed, the clones scream, disappear, and release three [[Star Bit]]s each. | | The Cosmic Clones most likely replaced [[Cosmic Mario]] as Mario's cosmic entity. |
|
| |
|
| The following table provides information on Cosmic Clones in each of their locations.

| Only the first clone uses voice clips when jumping. If the player is hurt by the first Cosmic Clone, the other ones only play sound effects.

| |
| [[File:Cosmicmariosm3dl.png|thumb|Screenshot from ''Super Mario 3D Land'']]
| |
| Cosmic Clones appear in the Special Worlds of ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', where they resemble [[Small Mario]]. Regardless of which character encounters a Cosmic Clone, the clones always resemble Mario's appearance more than Luigi's. They act as they do in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', but they have a purple outline instead of a red one, and only one appears instead of a group; this one does not vanish if Mario or Luigi touches it. Mario or Luigi can defeat the Cosmic Clones by touching them while [[Invincible Mario|invincible]] or by touching the level's [[Goal Pole]]; they give three [[coin]]s upon defeat. Upon the player reaching a certain area (normally the level's halfway point), the Cosmic Clone disappears. If the player leaves that area, the Cosmic Clone appears again, even if it has been defeated with a [[Super Star]].
| |
| | |
| This game also introduces [[Big Cosmic Clone]]s, which have a slower and lower-pitched voice and are four times as big. They can also destroy [[Brick Block]]s on contact, and they give ten coins when defeated.
| |
| | |
| The clones' theme music is the same as in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', albeit with most of the fading cosmic synth pads removed.
