==Trivia==
* The Lucky Bell is the only power-up item in ''Super Mario 3D World'' to not have a corresponding [[Stamp (Super Mario 3D World)|Stamp]].
* The statue the characters turn into is reminiscent of the popular Maneki-neko statues in Japan.
* Interestingly, while Mario, Peach, Toad and Rosalina raise their right paw, a gesture used to bring in wealth and good fortune, Luigi is depicted with his left paw up, commonly associated with businesses and owners wanting to bring in customers.
