==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
[[File:SMG2 Flip Swap Fourth Section.png|250px|thumb|left|Flipping panels as seen in the [[Flip-Swap Galaxy]] in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'']]
Flipping panels are objects in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. When [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) performs a [[spin]], the platforms flip over, causing the red platforms to show while the blue ones are hidden, or vice versa. Flipping panels appear as the primary stage element of the [[Flip-Swap Galaxy]], though minor sections of the same platforms also make an appearance in various parts of the [[Chompworks Galaxy]] and the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]] as well. In order to successfully make his way through the areas in which these platforms are present, Mario must skillfully spin to make them flip at exactly the right moment. Otherwise, he will fall into open space and lose a life.

===''Super Mario 3D Land''===
In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', when [[Mario]] performs a [[spin]] move, the platforms will flip over, causing the red platforms to show while the blue ones are hidden, or vice versa. Reversible Platforms appear as the primary stage element of the [[Flip-Swap Galaxy]], though minor sections of the same platforms also make an appearance in various parts of the [[Chompworks Galaxy]] and the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]] as well. In order to successfully make his way through the areas in which these platforms are present, Mario must skillfully spin to make them flip at exactly the right moment. Otherwise, he will fall into open space and lose a [[Extra Life|life]].

In ''Super Mario 3D Land'', where they function the same as the previous game. Instead of being activated with spins (which can not be used in the game), they are activated simply by jumping.
Red-Blue Panels are objects in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''. They are noticeably larger and once again activated by jumps. In ''[[Bowser's Fury]]'', Red-Blue Panels are utilized in the mission Bully the Cat Bullies in [[Fort Flaptrap]].
