'''Snowman Blocks''' are special types of blocks that have so far only appeared in ''[[Wario Land: Shake It]]''. They appear as blue blocks with a light blue border and a picture of a snowflake imprinted on them. They also appear to be made of metal. These blocks are impentrable; not even a bomb can break it. The only way to destroy a Snowman Block is by having [[Wario]] turn into [[Snowman Wario]]. Wario would have to be a huge snowball in order to break one of these blocks. Wario can become a huge snowball by attempting to climb a slope. He'll fall back and become invincible until he hits a wall or another hazard. Snowman Blocks are usually placed in startegic places and often hide [[List of Wario's Treasures in Wario Land: Shake It!|treasure]], [[Coin|coins]], or a [[Warp Pipe]]. A similar block is the [[Bonfire Block]].
