Buzzy Shell

The Shell Helmet is an item exclusive to Super Mario Maker; when a shell item falls onto Mario, it will land on top of him and protect him from one hit. The shells also protect from enemies attacking from above, such as Thwomps, for as long as the player is wearing one. A few of the easier ways to obtain the Shell Helmet is either by grabbing and throwing a shell up and waiting for the shell to return, or jump up into a shell riding on the line guides.
