The Jumbo Star[1] is a Power Star-like object that appears in Super Mario 64 and its Nintendo DS version. In the latter version, it beams with light, emitting sparkles and a rainbow ring. The Jumbo Star can be obtained by defeating Bowser in the final Bowser level, Bowser in the Sky. After being defeated, Bowser vanishes, revealing the Star. Touching it ends gameplay, showing a cutscene in which Mario transforms into Wing Mario and automatically flies away via a Triple Jump. After returning to the Mushroom Castle, Mario then uses the Jumbo Star to release Princess Peach from the stained glass window she was trapped in above the entrance to the castle.
