'''Sling Stars''' are objects in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. These miniature [[Launch Star]]s give [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) boosts into the air. However, these do not send Mario flying into space; they give him a small fling into the air to reach other nearby [[platform]]s, other nearby planets, and other areas. Sometimes, there are Sling Stars that throw Mario up to a higher Launch Star, while other times, the Sling Stars bounce Mario to other nearby planets instead of ones farther away, where a Launch Star would not be needed. Sometimes a Sling Star flings the player into the air, revealing rings of [[Star Bit]]s, before returning the player to the planet.

A '''Spring Star''' is a miniature [[Star Ring]] item found in the upcoming game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Like Star Rings, these little things give [[Mario]] boosts into the air. However, these don't send Mario flying into space with power. They simple give him a small fling into the air to reach other things.

==Additional names==
In some situations, there will be Spring Stars that will throw Mario up to a higher Star Ring, so he can use that to go to another planet; in other situations, the Spring Stars will bounce Mario to other nearby planets instead of farther away ones.

===Names in other languages===
Spring Stars look a bit like Star Rings, but with less sharp edges and a much smaller size. They do not have the orbs at their five ends like a Star Ring, so they are not resembled to a Sherrif's badge like their larger counterparts.
