The '''Plunder Chest''' is an item in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''  and  ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''. It is a [[treasure chest]] that can steal an item from another player. In ''Mario Party 2'' and ''Mario Party 3'', it is [[Princess Peach]]'s favorite item.

In ''Mario Party 2'', when used, the Plunder Chest randomly chooses another player who is holding an item, steals their item, and gives it to the player unless only one other player has an item at the time. The stolen item can be used on the same turn unless the item is a [[Bowser Bomb (item)|Bowser Bomb]]. In ''Mario Party 3'' and all succeeding games, players can choose who they want to steal from; however, if the person being targeted has two or three items, the stolen item is picked randomly. There is also a much rarer version of the Plunder Chest in ''Mario Party 3'', called the [[Barter Box]], which swaps all of the player's items with all of the targeted player's items. 

In ''Mario Party Superstars'', the Plunder Chest is normally exclusive to Item Minigames; however, it can be purchased from the Forest Shop in [[Woody Woods]] for 20 coins, hence why it is not a special item. The [[Hidden Block Card]] shares the same trait.
