The Bucket itself is used in the very first stage of the game, [[Yōsei no Mori]], and features Mario's "M" insignia when upright; when turned upside-down while over a character's head, the "M" becomes Wario's "W," referencing his "power" over the character. Later stages outside the EXTRA stages will feature multiple different objects.
