Garage (Super Mario Galaxy)

The Garage is an area of the Comet Observatory in Super Mario Galaxy. It serves as a docking area for small spacecraft, namely the Starshroom. When Mario first arrives at the Comet Observatory, the Garage appears to be empty, but it becomes occupied by the Toad Brigade and several Lumas early on in the game. Later on, Luigi can be found here as well. In the Garage is a shortcut that can beam Mario to and from the topmost level of the Comet Observatory, but it must first be activated from the top level. The Garage also contains a Crate with a 1-Up Mushroom hidden inside of it.

When Mario collects the first Power Star from the Honeyhive Galaxy, he'll simultaneously rescue the Toad Brigade as well. The Toad Brigade will then relocate themselves to the Garage, where they will work with the Lumas to to build the Starshroom. Once Mario rescues Luigi from the Ghostly Galaxy, he will join the Toad Brigade in the Garage, where he will remain for the rest of the game, except for the duration of the times he is lost in other galaxies.
