"I'll transform into a Sling Star. Just jump into me after I...TRANSFORM!"
Luma

Sling Stars are objects in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Description[]

Sling Stars are miniaturized Launch Stars. Like their larger variation, Sling Stars give Mario (or Luigi) boosts into the air. However, these do not send Mario flying into space; they give him a small fling into the air to reach other nearby Platforms, other nearby planets, and other areas.

In some situations, there are Sling Stars that throw Mario up to a higher Launch Star, so he can use that to go to another planet; other times, the Sling Stars bounce Mario to other nearby planets instead of ones farther away, where a Launch Star would not be needed. Sometimes a Sling Star flings the player into the air, revealing rings of Star Bits, and then the player is quickly brought back from the planet.
