Magic carpet

Magic Carpets or just Carpets are magical flying carpets that first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 2. Pidjits flew on them, and if Mario and the gang defeated the Pidjit that was on the carpet, they would be able to use it like Lakitu's Cloud (this carpet may have inspired the cloud).

Thought the carpet was not seen in another game, in the Super Mario Bros. Super Show! it appeared as a vehicle of the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, Toad and other characters used these carpets sometimes.

In one episode, the carpets appeared with a car on the carpet however in later episodes it remained as just carpets that sometimes had steering wheels. In one episode, Pidjits are seen eating carpets.
