Magic Statue

The Magic Statue is, as its name implies, a life-size stone statue with magical properties. Shaped like an Australian hunter, it bears the power to repel crocodiles. The Mushroom People who inhabit a small town in Down Under Land rely on the Magic Statue to keep their home safe from the neighboring crocodiles who would otherwise stop at nothing to eat them alive. Despite being made of stone, the Magic Statue appears to be rather light, as Kangaroo Koopa, Mario, Luigi and Princess Toadstool are all able to carry and toss it around with little effort.

History
The Magic Statue only appeared in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Crocodile Mario". Kangaroo Koopa learned of the Magic Statue and traveled to Down Under Land in order to steal it, leaving the town vulnerable to the crocodiles. Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool and Toad also traveled to Down Under Land in hope that they could use the Magic Statue to protect the Mushroom Kingdom. However, they arrived just as Kangaroo Koopa swiped the statue and ran off with it.

As crocodiles began to invade the town, Mario and Luigi set off on a mission to retrieve the Magic Statue, as it was the only known means of ridding the town of the crocodiles, who were prepared to tear the place apart just so that they could eat everyone there.

After a long journey, Mario and Luigi found the Magic Statue in a cave, with Kangaroo Koopa sleeping next to it. Although Mario managed to swipe it, Luigi tripped and woke up Kangaroo Koopa, who proceeded to chase them back towards the town. As they went, Mario and Luigi tossed the Magic Statue back and forth, playing a game of "Koopa in the Middle" in the process. Upon returning to the town, Mario passed the Magic Statue to Princess Toadstool, who placed it back on its pedestal, and kissed it, causing it to blush and emit its power across the town. With the Magic Statue back in its rightful place, the crocodiles all fled town, chasing off Kangaroo Koopa in the process.
