'''Pinheads'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Premiere Edition guide. Page 28.</ref> are a type of creature appearing in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They appear as bowling pin-shaped enemies with two beady eyes, a red squiggly mouth, and a yellow antenna. These creatures are very rare, only appearing in two galaxies: [[Boulder Bowl Galaxy]] and [[Melty Monster Galaxy]]. They can only be defeated by [[Rock Mario]], and when they see the plumber turning into a rolling [[boulder]], they tremble desperately. When hit, they release multiple [[Star Bit]]s. However, if Mario comes close to them, they squeal and hide underground until he moves away.
