Spiny Eggs are small, usually red balls covered in spikes. Once they touch the ground, they turn into normal Spinies. Despite its name, a Spiny Egg does not appear to be a typical egg at all; instead, it seems to simply be a Spiny rolled up into a ball. While in this state, they can be defeated when touched by [[Invincible Mario|invincible characters]], burned by [[Fire Mario]]'s [[fireball]]s, attacked by [[Raccoon Mario]]'s or [[Tanooki Mario]]'s Tail attack, etc. | ||

Spiny's eggs | Spiny's eggs first appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and its dual-purpose add-on and sequel, ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', and return in both games' remakes included in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]''. Spiny's eggs are exactly the same in both games, and sport more of an oval shape than in later appearances. Spiny's eggs demonstrate their basic behaviors in this game: they are thrown directly down from where Lakitu threw them, and on contact with land, turn into Spinies. In the manual, Spiny's eggs are listed separately from Spinies themselves. Lakitu will always throw either one or two Spiny's eggs at a time, depending on what form Mario/Luigi is in: if Mario is Small, he will only throw one egg, but if Mario is Super/Fire, then he will throw two eggs (this corresponds to how many hits Mario must take before losing a life). | ||
Notably, code leftover in the game suggests that Spiny's eggs were meant to move horizontally in the direction Lakitu was flying when he threw them, as well as bounce off of walls. Whether this was deliberately cut or unavailable due to a glitch is unknown.<ref>TCRF | Notably, code leftover in the game suggests that Spiny's eggs were meant to move horizontally in the direction Lakitu was flying when he threw them, as well as bounce off of walls.
