Metal Cap

The Metal Cap is a power-up that appears in Mario 64, turning Mario into Metal Mario. The Metal Cap is unlocked in the stage known as Cavern of the Metal Cap, where you press the Cap Switch, activating the blocks throughout the courses that give the Metal Cap. When used, Mario becomes a metallic texture, invincible, and is weighed down in water. It is used to collect various stars.
