A '''Sling Star''' is a miniature [[Launch Star]] item found in the upcoming game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Like Launch Stars, these little things give [[Mario]] boosts into the air. However, these don't send Mario flying into space with power. They simple give him a small fling into the air to reach other things.

Sling Stars look a bit like Launch Star, but with less sharp edges and a much smaller size. They do not have the orbs at their five ends like a Launch Star, so they are not resembled to a Sherrif's badge like their larger counterparts.
