 A similar type of block known as a [[Grab Block]] appears in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Grab Blocks can be picked up, carried, and thrown by players as well, but they resemble dark-blue [[Rotating Block]]s instead. In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', a type of Ice Block has the same role as both, though it is slippery and does not self-destruct.
