Grab Blocks[1] are dark blue Blocks resembling Rotating Blocks appearing in Super Mario World. As its name implies, Grab Blocks can be picked up and carried around by the player, similar to Super Mario Bros. 3's Ice Blocks. Once grabbed, it can be kicked away to defeat enemies or reach distant ? Blocks.
When Mario or Luigi holds a Grab Block, it will start to flash different colors, disappearing after a few seconds. However, a minor glitch occurs if the player takes a Grab Block through a pipe, which causes it to last indefinitely; this is a glitch. Yoshi can also eat Grab Blocks.
