'''Wallops'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick. ''Super Mario 3D Land'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 14.</ref> are stone enemies in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''.

Like Whomps, Wallops seem to be inspired by the Japanese mythological creature {{wp|nurikabe}}, which block the path of travelers, just as Wallops do, but Wallops also bear a striking resemblance to [[wikirby:Blocky|Blocky]] from the [[wikirby:Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]].

'''Wallops''' are a type of enemy appearing in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They look like Whomps, except they are shaped like a fort wall with black eyes and yellow pupils, with mouths and feet. Instead of attempting to squash Mario and Luigi by slamming on the ground when they get too close, Wallops block the player's way by following their movements. Wallops can also jump whenever Mario jumps and then slam the ground. After jumping, there will be a few seconds in which the Wallop will recover, giving Mario or [[Luigi]] a chance to pass by it. When the player is a certain distance away from or behind a Wallop, they will be in a state of dormancy, in which their pupils are no longer lit and their feet have retreated into their bodies, until the player is in front of them. Mario or Luigi can destroy them by standing below them when they jump as [[Statue Mario]] or [[Statue Mario|Statue Luigi]], or turning into a statue above them.

A Wallop also jumps and slams the ground whenever Mario or Luigi [[jump]]s, after which the Wallop is unable to move for a few seconds, giving the player a chance to bypass it. By [[dash|running]] in a direction and immediately turning the other way, Mario or Luigi can get past a Wallop without jumping.

Wallops[1] are stone enemies in Super Mario 3D Land. They look like Whomps with small battlements on their heads and without arms. Their mouths resemble the mouths of Rhomps and later Grumblumps. Like Whomps, Wallops seem to be inspired by the Japanese mythological creature nurikabe, which block the path of travelers, just as Wallops do, but Wallops also bear a striking resemblance to Blocky from the Kirby series. Their name is a pun on "wall," due to how Wallops look and behave like walls, and "wallop," which means "to make a loud crushing noise" or "a large attack or beating."

Wallops first appear in World 3-1; they also appear in World 6-4, World 8-6, Special 3-5, Special 6-1, Special 8-4, and lastly Special 8-Crown. When the player is behind or a certain distance away from a Wallop, it stays dormant, with its pupils unlit and its feet retreated into its body. Once Mario or Luigi is in front of a Wallop, it attempts to block his way by mimicking his movements. A Wallop also jumps and slams the ground whenever Mario or Luigi jumps, after which the Wallop is unable to move for a few seconds, giving the player a chance to bypass it. By running in a direction and immediately turning the other way, Mario or Luigi can get past a Wallop without jumping. A Wallop can be defeated only from either Mario or Luigi turning into a statue using the Statue Leaf above or below the Wallop when it jumps.

Although no regular Wallops return in Super Mario 3D World, the game introduces a spiky variant known as Walleyes, which also attempt to block the player but cannot jump.
