Comet Medal

Comet Medals are a type of item that is going to appear in the upcoming Super Mario Galaxy 2. They appear to be white octagonal coins with a golden lining and a picture of a golden comet (a Star with a tail) imprinted in them. Comet Medals make comets appear, like in the first game. They are found in every galaxy, usually in hard to reach places.

Trivia

 * When collected, the Comet Medal makes a similar sound effect to that of a Red Coin from Super Mario Sunshine.
