'''Attack Piece Blocks''' are multi-colored [[block]]s with the letter "A" on their faces that exclusively appear in the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series of [[Genre#Role-playing|role-playing]] ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games. They resemble differently-colored pieces of a puzzle joined together to make a block, and once they are hit, they give the player a single or multiple [[Attack Piece]]s at the same time. Before being hit, the locations of every Attack Piece are shown on the mini-map located on the Touch Screen, giving the player an idea of where they are.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', Attack Piece Blocks are scattered throughout [[Bowser's body]] and in places outside [[Bowser]] such as [[Dimble Wood]] and [[Peach's Castle]]. Blocks inside [[Bowser]][[Bowser's body|'s body]] look two-dimensional, while blocks in the outside world look three-dimensional. There are ten Attack Piece Blocks in almost every location; they will give [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] an [[Attack Piece]] if struck, which will grant a new [[Bros. Attack|Special Attack]] to the brothers when all ten are collected. Sometimes [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] can find several of these blocks all at once in the same area, and some Attack Piece Blocks give the brothers more than one Attack Pieces.

They return in the game's [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', found in the same locations as in the original game.

Attack Piece Blocks return in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', still giving Attack Pieces to the Mario Bros. when hit. These Attack Pieces, instead of producing Special Attacks, produce [[Bros. Attack]]s when all ten are collected, exclusive to Mario or Luigi in the [[Real World]]. They also produce [[Luiginary Attack]]s for Mario and [[Dreamy Luigi]] in the [[Dream World]] when all ten Attack Pieces are acquired there from Attack Piece Blocks. They also sport a new design; the bottom-left portion of the block being blue instead of green, the back-left portion being cyan instead of green, the back-right portion being orange instead of yellow, and the top-right portion being green instead of blue. The "A" located at the face of the block now has a small gold gradient, and the face itself is completely black instead of being magenta, resembling the faces of the blocks found in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.
