The '''Warp Star''' (also referred to as a '''Warpstar''') is a ride-able machine in ''[[Kirby Air Ride]]'' . It is considered to be the most balanced and basic of all vehicles in the game, with no major strengths, or flaws, and is the first one available for use in the [[Air Ride]] mode, with all others needing to be unlocked first.

The Warp Star is classified as a "star". As such, it hovers above the ground during normal movement, and is capable of [[gliding]] when airborne. It also must be braked to touch floor switches and other panels.

In terms of the Warp Star's abilities, it is basically balanced in every area, being able to adequately perform all necessary functions of an Air Ride Machine. Compared to the entire roster of machines, however, it has a slightly lower-than-usual [[top speed]] of about 25 mph (40.3 km/h), and slightly better-than-usual [[glide|gliding]] and [[turn|handling]] capabilities.

In City Trial, the Warp Star can occasionally be found randomly throughout the city, and mounted like most other air ride machines. It is always available in Free Run as well.

In the [[Kirby (novel series)|''Kirby'' novel series]], the [[Air Ride Machine]] version of the Warp Star appears in ''[[Kirby: Big Race in Pupupu Land!]]'', where it is [[Kirby (novel character)|Kirby]]'s vehicle of choice. It is shown to be ordinary compared to the other machines, and it has no special characteristics.
 
In ''Kirby: Big Race in Pupupu Land!'', the Warp Star is one of the last vehicles chosen by the racers, due to how ordinary it looks. Kirby and [[Waddle Dee (novel character)|Waddle Dee]] are the last ones to choose their vehicles, and Kirby chooses the Warp Star. As he gets on, the Warp Star emits a mysterious light, showing that Kirby is a great match for it. Unlike the other contestants, Kirby is able to maneuver his machine with perfect control. Much later in the race, [[Mr. Frosty]] angrily attacks Kirby as revenge for inhaling him earlier, throwing lumps of ice at him. One lump of ice hits the Warp Star, breaking it. Mr. Frosty leaves as Kirby notices a shady man walking by, and calls for help. [[Meta Knight (novel character)|Meta Knight]] arrives too, thinking the shady man is up to no good. The shady man introduces himself as [[Kurron]], and explains his true good intentions for investigating the race. Afterwards, a cry for help is heard in the forest, and Kirby gets on his Warp Star, only to realize that it is still broken. Kurron uses magic to instantly repair it back to how it was before. The three fly to the forest at a rapid speed.
