Tip-Taps are gold cloud creatures that appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park. They resemble large golden Lakitu's Clouds with arms that drop coins by playing their drums. Tip-Taps appear only in the Fast Cash: Tip-Tap's Coin Spree attraction in Bellabel Park. During the attraction, various Tip-Taps float through the course, hitting their drums to cause coins to fall from them or appear floating in the course itself. They can occasionally also drop Super Stars. Tip-Taps cannot be physically interacted with in any way.
