The Time Travel Tube (or just Time Tube) is a time machine that appears in the episode "Toddler Terrors of Time Travel" of The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3. It is built by Kooky von Koopa in order to allow travel to the past and prevent Mario and Luigi from finding their way into the Mushroom Kingdom, allowing King Koopa to take over without hindrance. In addition to traveling through time, it is capable of manipulating one's age.
However, the Time Travel Tube malfunctions during its journey to the past, causing Mario, Luigi, Toad, and the Koopas to rejuvenate back into infancy. When the Mario Bros. and Toad escape in their baby forms, Kooky repairs the Time Travel Tube and restores himself and King Koopa to their proper ages so they can carry out their plans. Before they can succeed in preventing the Mario Bros.' arrival, Toad steals the Time Travel Tube and then restores himself and the Mario Bros. back into adulthood. The Mario Bros. are able to open and enter the gate into the Mushroom Kingdom before the timeline becomes permanent, thwarting King Koopa and Kooky's plans.
