Toy box (object)
Toy boxes[1][2] are objects that appear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong and Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!
History
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
In Mario vs. Donkey Kong, toy boxes appear in every Mini-Mario level. When the player plays a Mini-Mario level, two Toads appear, carrying a toy box. They then both throw it in the sky, and it drops to the ground in an area of the Mini-Mario level. When Mario successfully retrieves all the Mini-Marios in the level, he must lure all of them into the toy box. After this, Mario has to first close and lock the toy box by jumping on top of it, and then the player must press 
to carry it up high as they complete the level.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!
In Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!, toy boxes are featured in the minigame levels. In odd-numbered attractions, dropping a Mini of any character into a toy box with a star on it earns points according to the multiplier below the toy box, while dropping Minis into a black toy box with a red X symbol on it subtracts points according to its multiplier. In even-numbered attractions, toy boxes instead feature a Mini's face on them, and dropping a Mini of a certain character into its corresponding toy box earns 100 points, while dropping a Mini into the incorrect toy box does not earn or subtract any points.
