'''Grab Blocks''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario World'' instruction booklet|page=22|language=en-us|date=1991|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> also referred to as '''Blue Blocks''',<ref>{{cite|title=Nintendo ''[[Mario Mania]]'' Player's Guide|page=51|date=August 1991|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> are dark-blue [[block]]s resembling [[Rotating Block]]s appearing in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They first appear in [[Yoshi's Island 2]]. Grab Blocks can be picked up and carried around by [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]], disappearing after a few seconds. Once grabbed, a Grab Block begins to flash colors, and it can be kicked away to defeat [[List of enemies|enemies]] or reach distant [[? Block|Prize Block]]s. [[Yoshi]] can eat Grab Blocks, though only after they have been activated, and he simply [[swallow]]s them. A minor [[glitch]] occurs if the player takes a Grab Block through a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]], causing it to last indefinitely.
'''Grab Blocks'''<ref>''Super Mario World'' English instruction booklet, page 22.</ref> are dark-blue [[block]]s resembling [[Rotating Block]]s appearing in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. As their name implies, Grab Blocks can be picked up and carried around by the player, similar to ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''{{'}}s [[Ice Block#Super Mario Bros. 3|White Block]]s. Once grabbed, a Grab Block can be kicked away to defeat [[List of enemies|enemies]] or reach distant [[? Block|Prize Block]]s.
 
A similar type of block known as the [[White Block]] has previously appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. White Blocks can be picked up, carried, and thrown much like a Grab Block, but they resemble white or light-blue [[Brick Block]]s. In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', a type of [[Ice Block]] has the same role as both, though it is slippery and does not self-destruct.


When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] holds a Grab Block, it will start to flash different colors, disappearing after a few seconds. However, a minor [[glitch]] occurs if the player takes a Grab Block through a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]], which causes it to last indefinitely. [[Yoshi]] can also eat Grab Blocks.
