The '''Star Crystal''' is a semi-common item in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' that consists of big, blue [[Star Bit]]s with strange spiky white crystal structures in them. They appear more often in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' than in its predecessor. They are most commonly seen floating in space directly in the path of a [[Launch Star]]. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] fly through the path, they will smash right through the Giant Star Bit, releasing multiple separate Star Bits that will circle around them and can be collected with the [[Star Cursor]] until they land on the next planet.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Star Crystals can sometimes be found floating just above the ground, though this is extremely rare, as this will only happen during one level in the [[Melty Monster Galaxy]]. In this level, the Star Crystals will be destroyed if they are hit by [[Rock Mario]] or [[Rock Luigi]]. For some reason, these Star Crystals will only produce four Star Bits when broken. These Star Crystal can also be broken by the [[Co-Star Luma]].

Three Star Crystals also appear on the [[Grand World Map]], one near the end of [[World 1 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|World 1]] and two at the beginning of [[World 2 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|World 2]]. The player can maneuver [[Starship Mario]] into these Star Crystals in order to break them and release the Star Bits inside. These Star Crystals appear to have a yellow spiky crystal inside them, and will release eight Star Bits when broken.

*In the Galaga Remix in Namco Museum Megamix, there are large floating objects in space that resemble Star Crystals. They award the player points.
