'''Tōsenbo''' are spiked, slug-like creatures found in outer space. They are exclusive to the second stage of the [[Space Zone]] in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]''. These creatures inflate and deflate at a regular interval, but are barely visible when they are not inflated. They are invulnerable when not inflated, so [[Mario]] should stay away from them; they can only be defeated using a [[Super Star|Star]] or a [[fireball]] when they are in their inflated state.
