}}__NOTOC__
'''Rainbow Mario''' is a form of [[Mario]] that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Mario can reach this form by obtaining a [[Rainbow Star]]. It makes Mario invincible, much like the [[Super Star]], but the effects of the Rainbow Star are more extensive and longer-lasting than those of a Super Star, and Mario can break through certain objects. However, he earns [[Star Bit]]s by defeating enemies instead of [[extra life|extra lives]], and he cannot combine this power-up with any other power-up; if Mario touches one while invincible, the other item will be kicked off-screen. As Rainbow Mario runs, he changes colors (but in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Mario and Luigi maintain a red color), and leaves a rainbow-colored afterimage trail behind him. The music as well as Mario himself increases in speed while in use, making Mario harder to control until it runs out. Rainbow Mario's theme is a re-orchestration of the [[Super Star (theme)|Super Star]] theme, with the same melody heard from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Rainbow Mario's theme in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' is slightly changed from its predecessor.
 
The artwork for Rainbow Mario is similar to [[Invincible Mario]]'s artwork; Mario's poses in both artworks are identical, though he faces a different direction in each artwork.

*'''Trading card bio:''' ''Rainbow Mario comes to life when Mario grabs a colorful Rainbow Star. This Power-Up is for more than good looks—when Mario transforms into Rainbow Mario he becomes invincible! Run fast once Mario takes on this form and he'll collect tons of Star Bits. Move quickly too because this amazing power only lasts a short time.''

|desc=What would you get if you combined Mario with a bouncing, rainbow-colored star? An amazing, invincible Rainbow Mario, of course! Plus, Mario will glow with twinkling stars and have an energetic song play for the duration. Doesn't that make you want to run out and grab a Rainbow Star right now?
|desc2=What would you do if you found a star that glowed in seven colours? "Grab it quick"? Well, that would be the smart thing to do, because it'd probably be a Rainbow Star! It turns everyone's favourite moustachioed man into a...well, a rainbow-coloured moustachioed man. Not only does he become invincible, but he looks fab!

{{distinguish|Invincible Mario}}
'''Rainbow Mario''' is a special form of [[Mario]] that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Mario can reach this form by obtaining a [[Rainbow Star]]. It makes Mario invincible, much like the [[Star#Super Mario Galaxy / Super Mario Galaxy 2|Starman]], but the effects of the Rainbow Star are more extensive and longer-lasting than those of a Starman. As Rainbow Mario, the heroic plumber runs faster, leaves a light trail behind him and breaks through certain objects. However, Mario cannot combine this powerup with any other powerup; if Mario touches one while invincible, the other item will be kicked away off the screen.

Rainbow Mario's theme is a re-orchestration of the classic invincibility theme, with the same melody heard in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' as the "Powerful Mario" tune which in turn originated from the from [[Superstar Baby Mario]] in the game ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. The music as well as Mario himself will increase in speed while in use, making Mario harder to control until it runs out.
