Adult Shine Blocks are a type of block featured in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time on a few occasions.

Description[]

Adult Shine Block green MLPIT sprite

They are a somewhat wide block with a Shine Sprite symbol on it, along with either an M or an L centered within the symbol. The color of an Adult Shine Block depends on which letter is shown, and Adult Shine Blocks with an M are colored red whereas those with an L are green.

Mario is the only character who can hit red Adult Shine Blocks, whereas only Luigi can hit green Adult Shine Blocks. Neither Baby Mario nor Baby Luigi can use an Adult Shine Block, as its title would suggest, but if either Mario or Luigi hits his corresponding Adult Shine Block, a small Shine Block appears and goes over to the babies, who can then hit it to illuminate the room temporarily. When the room goes dark again, an Adult Shine Block has to be activated again to illuminate the room again.

If Mario jumps under a green Adult Shine Block or Luigi under a red one, a fireball comes out, and there is a possibility of it landing on either of the babies. If this happens, the group is forced to restart the room.
