The '''Metal Cap''' is an accessory that makes its debut appearance in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. It is usually found in [[Metal Box|green ! Box]]es, which will become solid upon pressing the green [[! Switch]] in the [[Behind the Waterfall|Cavern of the Metal Cap]] course. The Metal Cap turns [[Mario]] into [[Metal Mario (form)|Metal Mario]], which makes him invulnerable and extremely heavy. Because of this, he can no longer make very high or long jumps, cannot swim, and will sink faster in [[quicksand]]. However, Metal Mario is also unaffected by [[toxic cloud]]s and cannot drown. The effect lasts for 20 seconds. | The '''Metal Cap''' (known as the ''Metal Mario Cap'' in [[Super Mario Odyssey]]) is an accessory that makes its debut appearance in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''.

If Mario gets another power when the Metal Cap is in effect, they will combine. This is possible in [[Dire, Dire Docks]], where a Metal Box is located directly beside a blue [[! Block]], and in [[Wet-Dry World]], where the player can drain the water in the Downtown area and collect the Metal Cap, then jump down and collect the [[Vanish Cap]]. Collecting both will give Mario the powers of both his [[Vanish Mario|Vanish]] and Metal forms. An unused texture in the game shows a metallic version of the wings from the [[Wing Cap]], suggesting that it would have been possible to combine the Wing Cap with the Metal Cap as well.<ref>https://tcrf.net/Super_Mario_64_(Nintendo_64)/Unused_Textures#Metal_Wing_Cap</ref> | If Mario gets another power when the Metal Cap is in effect, they will combine.
