'''Spike Bars''' are spiky obstacles that are similar to [[Fire Bar]]s but with small [[Spike Ball|spiked balls]] in place of [[fireball]]s. They usually can be destroyed with certain [[list of power-ups|power-up]] forms, whereas Fire Bars are completely indestructible. If characters come in contact with a Spike Bar, they take damage.

'''Spike Bars''' are obstacles that first appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They are similar to [[Fire Bar]]s, but have spiked balls in place of [[fireball]]s. Contrary to Fire Bars, which mostly appear in only [[lava]]-themed [[level]]s, Spike Bars are found in a multitude of levels throughout the game. As with Fire Bars, there can be two Spike Bars rotating around the same axis, though unlike Fire Bars, there are no varieties of Spike Bar which rotate on their side or have more than two bars rotating around the same axis.


==History==
Spike Bars return in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', though their appearance has changed; they now look more like spiked rollers rolling around a center than Fire Bars. Also, they are only seen with two or four bars rotating around the same axis. Spike Bars are found only in {{world|castle|4}} and {{world|mushroom2|7}}. Additionally, [[Spike]]s attack by producing unattached Spike Bars and throwing them forward, which roll down the path in front of them. Other individual Spike Bars can also be found rolling on pendulum platforms, or swinging back and forth via two chains.
===''Wario Land: Shake It!''===

In ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', Spike Bars, referred to as '''spike poles'''<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''Wario Land: Shake It!'' PRIMA Official Strategy Guide|page=166-169|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=September 22, 2008|language=en-us|isbn=978-0-7615-6113-2}}</ref> or '''spiky poles''',<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''Wario Land: Shake It!'' PRIMA Official Strategy Guide|page=96|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=September 22, 2008|language=en-us|isbn=978-0-7615-6113-2}}</ref> appear in [[level]]s that feature [[Rocket Bucket]]s, such as [[Airytale Castle]] and [[Launchpad Labyrinth]]. They extend out of a metallic pivot and start rotating around it the moment [[Wario]] mounts a Rocket Bucket, retracting when the vehicle is destroyed or abandoned. Spike poles appear with varying lengths, are indestructible, and are always surrounded with [[coin]]s, collectable by carefully navigating between the bars. If Wario flies a Rocket Bucket into a spike pole, the vehicle breaks, forcing him to plummet to solid ground. Since they appear only when a Rocket Bucket is in use, spike poles cannot hurt Wario directly.


===''Super Mario'' series===
Spike Bars return in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' as obstacles in the level [[Spike Bar Jungle]].
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
[[File:SpikeBar3DLand.PNG|thumb|A Spike Bar in [[World 5-2 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 5-2]] in ''Super Mario 3D Land'']]
Contrary to Fire Bars, which mostly appear in [[lava]]-themed levels, Spike Bars are found in a variety of level themes throughout ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. One or two Spike Bars can be found rotating around the same axis, but unlike Fire Bars, Spike Bars never rotate on their sides. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] makes contact with a Spike Bar in his [[Statue Mario|Statue form]], it breaks and releases several coins.


====''Super Mario Run''====
Spike Bars are set to return in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' in the [[Seaside Kingdom]].
Spike Bars return in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' as obstacles in the level [[Spike Bar Jungle]]. This time, the spiked balls that make up the Spike Bar are redesigned to be green with yellow spikes, making them resemble the Spike Balls as held up by [[River Piranha Plant]]s in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', or the [[spike ball (seed)|spike ball]]s that appear in some courses of ''Super Mario 3D World''. In this game, the bar is also connected to a [[Hard Block]] with a cog. Albeit indestructible in this game, Spike Bars can be bounced on safely by [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]].
