'''Huge Icicles'''<ref>Stratton, Steve. ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Pages 103, 108, 109.</ref> are a type of giant and indestructible [[Icicle]] debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They mostly function identically to regular Icicles besides their larger size, except that they can be walked on top of after they fall, with some staying still while others may tilt to one side. They appear in [[World 3-3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3-3]] and {{world-link|3|castle|World 3-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}.

Huge Icicles reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|its Nintendo Switch port]], being found in the courses [[Freezing-Rain Tower]], [[Icicle Caverns]], and [[Hammerswing Caverns]]. They function identically to how they do in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. They notably do not appear in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''.

Huge Icicles appear again in the [[stage]] [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where they fall from offscreen after water drips down to indicate their appearance. Anyone hit by them when they fall is frozen, and they function as platforms after landing as they do in the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' games. In both of these games, Huge Icicles are generically referred to as '''icicles''' in the in-game tips.

''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' all feature large Icicles that function very similarly to Huge Icicles.
