'''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 [[block]]s in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They resemble [[Rotating Block]]s but are dark blue in color. Grab Blocks can be picked up, causing it to start flashing,<ref>{{cite|quote=When you pick up a Grab Block, it will begin to flash.|author=Tsuboike, Yoshio, et al.|title=''Nintendo Power Advance'' Volume 4|page=13|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=Winter 2002}}</ref> and kicked away to defeat [[List of enemies|enemies]] or reach distant [[? Block|Prize Block]]s. A Grab Block breaks a few seconds after being picked up. [[Yoshi]] can instantly swallow any activated Grab Block. A minor [[glitch]] occurs if the player takes a Grab Block through a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]], causing it to last indefinitely. Grab Blocks are first seen in [[Yoshi's Island 2]].
'''Grab Blocks'''<ref>''Super Mario World'' English instruction booklet, page 22.</ref> are dark blue Blocks resembling [[Rotating Block]]s appearing in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. As its 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|Ice Blocks]]. Once grabbed, it can be kicked away to defeat [[List of enemies|enemies]] or reach distant [[? Block]]s.


A similar type of block named the [[White Block]] was previously introduced in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', except it resembles either a white or light-blue [[Brick Block]]. ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' would go on to introduce its own similar type, [[Ice Block]], except 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.
