| 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. |
