The '''Vanish Cap''', or '''Blue Cap''',<ref>{{cite|date=January 1997|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #46|page=28}}</ref> is a [[cap]] found in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. When worn, it turns [[Mario]] into [[Vanish Mario]] for 20 seconds. In this form, Mario can walk through enemies, metal fences, and certain walls. The Vanish Cap music is the same as the [[Wing Cap]] music. To use a Vanish Cap, Mario must first press the [[Cap Switch|Vanish Cap Switch]] in the course [[The Secret Under the Moat|Vanish Cap Under the Moat]], which activates [[Cap Block|blue block]]s. Vanish Caps appear in [[Big Boo's Haunt]]; [[Dire, Dire Docks]]; [[Snowman's Land]]; [[Wet-Dry World]]; and Vanish Cap Under the Moat.


In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', [[Luigi]] gains the ability to become immaterial when he picks up a [[Power Flower (Super Mario 64 DS)|Power Flower]], but the Vanish Cap itself is absent.

==Trivia==
*Like the Wing Cap music, the Vanish Cap music is an arrangement of [[Superstar Mario]]'s theme from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', which in turn is an arrangement of the [[Super Star]]'s theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' but with an added melody. This theme was reused as the Super Star's theme in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', and it was arranged as the music for the [[Rainbow Star]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.
