The Super Star (スーパースター, Sūpā Sutā), known in older games as the Starman, is an item in all four games of the Super Smash Bros. series. As well as spawning normally, it can also be found in Capsules and Party Balls. It automatically bounces on the field and can fall off the stage if not grabbed in time. A character who touches the Super Star is granted invincibility for 10 seconds, though characters with a Super Star can still be pushed off the stage by moves with the push effect and be hit with the Team Healer. CPUs tend to try to evade characters under the effects of a Super Star and will not even attack in Melee. In the same way that the Hammer comes with its own music, whenever a character is under the effect of a Super Star, special music will play in the background and the stage music will be lowered in volume to the point that it becomes extremely difficult to hear over the layered theme. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the music sounds just like it did when the player got a Super Star in Super Mario Bros.. Unlike most items, the Super Star will bounce around in large arcs and off platforms or walls, similar to its behavior in the Mario games.
Origin
The Super Star made its first appearance in Super Mario Bros. and has been a recurring item ever since. When a player touches a Super Star, the player is temporarily invincible and is able to defeat enemies simply by touching them. Also, when the player is invincible, invincibility music is played. In the Super Smash Bros. series, the Super Star is used to turn a player invincible; however, the invincible character can't deal damage to other players by simply touching them. A remix of the invincibility music from the Mario series can be heard when a player gets a Super Star in the Super Smash Bros. series.
Description from the Super Smash Bros. Instruction Booklet
The character who grabs the Star becomes INVINCIBLE! ...but only for a short while.
Trophy Info
In Melee
Trophy #250
This item makes you invulnerable to all attacks for a short period of time. The Starman bounces around and eventually tumbles out of the stage, but all you need to do is touch it to power up. It possessed similar powers in Super Mario Bros., except you could also harm enemies just by touching them while under its influence.

In Brawl
An erratically bouncing item that is hard to catch. If you can grab it, though, you'll be invulnerable to all attacks for a short time. In addition, no one will be able to grab or throw you, either. Make the effort to grab the Starman when it appears—watching your opponents turn and run from you makes it all worthwhile.

NA: You may recognize these star-shaped items as they bounce across the stage. Picking one up will grant you a short period of invincibility. You can't wipe out enemies just by walking into them—like in Mario games—but you can still attack without fear. Your foes will be running scared! PAL: You'll see one of these little stars bouncing along the stage from time to time. Touch it to become invincible! (Well, for a while, at least.) Unfortunately , they don't work exactly the same way as they do in the Mario series, so you won't damage anyone just by walking into them - you'll still need to put some effort in.
Trivia
- Characters who have grabbed the Super Star can avoid the acid in Planet Zebes and Brinstar and lava on Norfair, resulting in a self-destruct if players fall through it.
- If Snake obtains the Super Star and uses his Final Smash, the visual effect of the Super Star will still appear. This happens whenever he uses an item that gives a visual effect, like the Smoke Ball.
- When a character becomes invincible after grabbing a Super Star, Bulborbs will still be able to trap the character.
