'''Wallops'''<ref>{{cite|author=von Esmarch, Nick|title=''Super Mario 3D Land'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=14|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=November 13, 2011|language=en-us|isbn=978-0-307-89386-4}}</ref> are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. These stone creatures look like [[Whomp]]s with small battlements on their heads and without arms. Their mouths resemble the mouths of [[Rhomp]]s and later [[Grumblump]]s. Like Whomps, Wallops seem to be inspired by the Japanese mythological creature {{iw|wikipedia|nurikabe}}, which block the path of travelers, just as Wallops do, but Wallops also bear a striking resemblance to [[wikirby:Blocky|Blocky]] from the [[wikirby:Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. Their name is a pun on "wall," due to how Wallops look and behave like walls, and "wallop," which means "to make a loud crushing noise" or "a large attack or beating." When the player is behind or a certain distance away from a Wallop, it stays dormant, with its pupils unlit and its feet retreated into its body. Once [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] is in front of a Wallop, it attempts to block his way by mimicking his movements. A Wallop also jumps and slams the ground whenever Mario or Luigi [[jump]]s, after which the Wallop is unable to move for a few seconds, giving the player a chance to bypass it. By [[dash|running]] in a direction and immediately turning the other way, Mario or Luigi can get past a Wallop without jumping. A Wallop can be defeated only from either Mario or Luigi [[Statue Mario|turning into a statue]] using the [[Statue Leaf]] above or below the Wallop when it jumps. Wallops appear in [[World 3-1 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 3-1]], [[World 6-4 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 6-4]], [[World 8-6 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 8-6]], [[Special 3-5]], [[Special 6-1]], [[Special 8-4]], and [[Special 8-Crown]].
'''Wallops''' are enemies introduced in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They are a [[Whomp]] sub-species shaped like a wall with black eyes and yellow pupils, with mouths and feet.


Although no regular Wallops return in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', the game introduces a spiky variant known as [[Walleye]]s, which also attempt to block the player but cannot jump.
==History==
===''Super Mario 3D Land===
[[File:Fort enemy and green triangle dude.jpg|thumb|left|A Wallop near Mario in ''Super Mario 3D Land''.]]
Wallops make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', where they are found in many places of various themes. They block [[Mario]]'s way, walking in front of him and taking the same directions the plumber goes, preventing Mario to go ahead. Wallops can also jump whenever Mario jumps and then slam the ground. After jumping, Wallops remain motionless by some seconds, a chance that Mario can have to pass and follow. Mario or Luigi can destroy them by stomping on them, or standing below them when they jump as [[Statue Mario]] or [[Statue Mario|Statue Luigi]].

*The move Wallops use when they slam the ground strongly resembles a [[Ground Pound]].
 
*Wallops are very similar to [[wikirby:Blocky|Blocky]] from the [[wikirby:Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]].
{{Thwomps}}
*Like [[Whomps]], Wallops seem to be inspired by the Japanese, mythological creature [[wikipedia:Nurikabe (folklore)|nurikabe]]. Nurikabes block the path of travelers, just like Wallops do.
*The name Wallop is also a pun on "wall", due to how they look and behave like walls all the time.
*When the player is far away from a Wallop it appears to be sleeping since their feet aren't showing & their eyes are closed.
