Big Ruby Rocks[1] are a variant of Ruby Rock in Super Mario Galaxy. They are found only in the Dusty Dune Galaxy, in the mission "Soaring on the Desert Winds," where they appear in the underground section, in the sand slide area. Upon Mario (or Luigi) reaching the section and descending the slide, a Big Ruby Rock falls from above and begins to roll down, forcing him to run away. Despite their size, Big Ruby Rocks can be defeated just like a normal Ruby Rock, with a spin or fireball in their red part, which causes them to drop Star Bits.
