Template:Item-infobox The Warp Star is a common item in the Kirby series. Its first appears as an item in the Mario series in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When a character grabs one, they will fly up into the air, and then crash down to the ground, making an explosion that damages other players (except the player who used the Warp Star).
A Warp Star appears in the Subspace Emissary of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Kirby and Peach/Zelda use it to escape from the stadium right before it is swallowed by Subspace. However, they are chased by the Halberd, and are forced to land on it.

The Warp Star originated as Kirby's ride: it helped the ponderous puffball get around at high speed. Hop on the Warp Star in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and your character will rapidly launch up and off the screen. You'll return in a flash, causing an explosion as you hit the ground. Try holding a direction to alter your landing. |

GB Kirby's Dream Land | A warp-speed item. In the Kirby series, Warp Stars are used to move between stages. In Smash Bros., they're ultrafast attack items that zoom up and down to devastate anyone they hit. You can shift your landing spot by moving the Control Stick left or right during your descent. Choose your target and hang on! Don't overshoot the mark and plummet off the stage, though. |
