Their name comes from a word referring to a pin's flattened head. Each Pinhead appears as a bowling pin-shaped enemy with two beady eyes, a squiggly red mouth, and a yellow antenna. Pinheads are encountered in the [[Boulder Bowl Galaxy]] and [[Melty Monster Galaxy]] only. Though they are not inherently enemies, Pinheads can be defeated only by [[Rock Mario]], and when they see him turning into a rolling [[boulder]], they tremble desperately. When hit, they release multiple [[Star Bit]]s. However, if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] comes close to Pinheads, they squeal and hide underground until he moves away. | | {{multiple image |

| Melty Monster Galaxy's [[The Chimp's Bowling Challenge|secret mission]] involves a bowling challenge where Pinheads are located in a series of bowling alleys, and Mario must knock down at least 50 of them with his Rock form. Each Pinhead knocked down is worth 100 [[point]]s.

| | '''Pinheads'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 28.</ref> are a type of creature appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Each appears as a bowling pin-shaped enemy with two beady eyes, a red squiggly mouth, and a yellow antenna. These creatures are very rare, appearing in only two [[galaxy|galaxies]]: [[Boulder Bowl Galaxy]] and [[Melty Monster Galaxy]]. They can be defeated only by [[Rock Mario]], and when they see the plumber turning into a rolling [[boulder]], they tremble desperately. When hit, they release multiple [[Star Bit]]s. However, if [[Mario]] comes close to them, they squeal and hide underground until he moves away. |
