'''Spinecones'''<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/galaxy2/?lang=en English ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' entry on the official Mario Portal]. ''nintendo.co.jp''. Retrieved August 13, 2022. ([https://archive.ph/2UaOd Archived] August 12, 2022, 23:39:46 UTC via archive.today.)</ref> are {{wp|Turbo cornutus|horned turban snail}}-like enemies that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Their name is a portmanteau of "spine" and "pinecone." Each Spinecone has a giant blueish-white cone-shaped shell adorned with orange spikes and has a purple head with a pair of skittish eyes that dart back and forth constantly. Spinecones first appear as uncommon enemies in [[Starshine Beach Galaxy]]'s underwater portion. They later appear as one of the main obstacles in [[Boo Moon Galaxy]]'s mission [[Haunting the Howling Tower]]. They move around very slowly and cannot be defeated.
