Collect Picture Pieces to complete celebration pictures!

— in-game tip from Kirby Star Allies

Picture Pieces (also called Illustration Pieces) are collectable items in Kirby Star Allies. Collecting them is necessary to complete the Celebration Pictures.

There are two main varieties of Picture Pieces; standard and rare. Standard pieces when collected will add a random piece onto an empty blue section of a picture, or may land on a piece that was already added, effectively nullifying it. Rare pieces - on the other hand - will add a number of pre-determined pieces onto red sections of pictures. If the same rare piece is then collected again, it will turn into three normal pieces.

Collecting Picture Pieces

There are several ways to collect standard Picture Pieces. They are as follows:

• Scattered in various locations in stages.
• Pressing a Big Switch again, or in Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!.
• Reaching the #1 spot in the Goal Game.
• Opening Treasure Chests in The Ultimate Choice.
• Scanning in an amiibo.

When scanning an amiibo, a Kirby series figurine will give two pieces, where any other series figurine will give only one.

Rare Piece Locations

Kirby obtains a Rare Picture Piece.

One rare Picture Piece can be found in each stage in Story Mode. They cannot be found in Dream Palaces, the Ability Planet, or in the final level; Kirby Star Allies.

While completing the Celebration Pictures is not required for 100% completion of the game, collecting all of the rare pieces is required. The sections filled in by rare Picture Pieces are not based on the stage, but rather the total number of pieces collected; in other words, the sections that get filled in will always be the same regardless of which stage the pieces are collected from.

The following table lists each Rare Picture Piece location in Kirby Star Allies:

Rare Picture Piece Locations in Kirby Star Allies Story Mode
Level	Stage	Image	How to reach
Dream Land	Green Gardens		After defeating Mr. Frosty, Kirby and his friends must venture forth, where they will find some burning logs blocking off a path. Using the Ice ability or the Blizzard enchantment can allow the team to get rid of this obstacle. This leads to a dead end with some tall grass. Cutting or burning the grass will yield this piece.
Dream Land	Donut Dome		This picture piece is blocked off by a section of floor, which can be removed by hitting a Stake in the wall which is guarded by shield enemies and fiery logs. To hit this post, either Splash Curling or Ice Curling is necessary.
Dream Land	Honey Hill		At the very end of the stage, four Fuse Cannons can be found hooked to the same fuse. The fuse will need to be lit, then all four cannons must be occupied before they fire. Doing so will allow Kirby and his allies to bust through a series of stone ceilings to reach this picture piece at the top.
Dream Land	Fruity Forest		Along the path just after the Invincible Candy, a chamber can be found under the main road full of Nruffs containing a Treasure Chest. Inside this chest is the picture piece.
Dream Land	Clash at Castle Dedede		During the second ambush section, there are two large metal blocks on alcoves. These can be broken using Friend Throw to reveal the picture piece inside the one to the right.
Dream Land	Extra Eclair		In the area with the tall grass, a tall tree can be found in the middle of the field, which has a hanging nut on it. Breaking this nut reveals a Key, which can be used to open the way to a round-trip door. In this door is a fuse hooked to four Fuse Cannons. Kirby and his allies will need to jump in after lighting the fuse in order to blast up through the ceiling and find this picture piece inside a Treasure Chest.
Planet Popstar	Friendly Field		This piece is awarded to Kirby after completing the Friend Circle section.
Planet Popstar	Reef Resort		In the last pool before the stage exit, this piece can be found.
Planet Popstar	Echo's Edge		Kirby and his allies will need to successfully bring the Key Dee to the gate on their second Friend Bridge trial to open the way to this piece.
Planet Popstar	Nature's Navel		Just to the left of the stage exit, a ladder can be found which leads up to an area where a Mega Blado guards the picture piece.
Planet Popstar	Sacred Square		In the large open area of the Friend Star section, a passageway can be found high up blocked off by ice blocks. Kirby will need a Fire-based shot to get in and obtain the picture piece inside.
Planet Popstar	Inside Islands		While ascending the vertical passage, a Pull Switch can be found blocked off by a wall of Gordos. Using the Friend Bounce ability will allow Kirby to launch someone up there to pull it, revealing a Treasure Chest containing this piece.
Planet Popstar	Duplex Dream		On the other side of a moving lava floor, there is a tunnel blocked off by ice blocks. Breaking these reveals a round-trip door which leads to a room where the Sizzle Whip will come in handy to solve a puzzle and get the picture piece.
Jambastion	Gatehouse Road		In the area with the rising platforms, this picture piece can be found inside one of the larger Star Blocks along the way.
Jambastion	Eastern Wall		Taking the round-trip door from the Two Face hall leads to a room which requires a Friend Throw and some electricity to solve a puzzle and get this picture piece.
Jambastion	Longview Corridor		A Floaty the Cell Core guards a breakable floor which can be broken using Geokinesis to reveal a Treasure Chest containing this piece.
Jambastion	Western Outer Wall		During the split conveyor section, one of the switches when pressed causes this picture piece to appear.
Jambastion	Inner Sanctum		In the second area, a Big Kabu in a floor pocket guards a round-trip door leading to a puzzle. To solve this, Kirby will need Bomb and Plasma, thus getting this piece.
Jambastion	Heavenly Hall		While flying through the area with the Electro Saws on the Friend Star, this piece can be found on a sinking platform. Kirby will need to grab it before it goes off-screen.
Jambastion	Sector A		In the third ambush room, a hidden passage can be found after clearing the enemies which leads to a Treasure Chest containing this piece.
Jambastion	Sector B		During the Friend Train section, Kirby and his allies will need to make all of the jumps in the last area to take the path leading to the picture piece.
Jambastion	Sector C		In the hall with the conveyor floor, a round-trip door can be used to access a room where a Treasure Chest can be found, guarded by a full barrier of Electro Saws. These can be destroyed using a Water-type attack to get the picture piece inside the chest.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Planet Earthfall		Up the vertical path, a leaf pile conceals a round-trip door. Inside is a room where a fan challenge needs to be solved to obtain this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Falluna Moon		A round-trip door can be found under the main path near the beginning. Inside, Kirby will need to carry a Key past many Comos to unlock a cache containing this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Planet Misteen		Just after defeating Bonkers, an electric Stake can be found on the island just to the right. Hitting this with a Zap Hammer will open the way to a round-trip door leading to a side-chamber. Inside, Kirby and his friends will need to solve a Friend Bridge puzzle to obtain this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Mareen Moon		A round-trip door can be found above a set of underwater Gordos which leads to a side room. In this room, Kirby will need to hit Bomb Blocks on the way up a strong current to unlock a cache containing this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Planet Caverna		Off to the right from the main chamber, a series of obstacles must be cleared in order to reach this picture piece. They are in order; burning logs, a Stake, stone blocks which can be busted using Friend Throw, and canvases.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Grott Moon		In the area with the hanging bombs, a breakable section of wall reveals a chamber where another bomb can be lit and exploded to reveal this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Planet Frostak		A series of burning chains can be cut with a sharp utensil combined with Bluster or Blizzard, causing a hollowed block to fall into a lower area, where its interior can be accessed to obtain this piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Blizzno Moon		During the elevator ascent, a round-trip door can be found through a side passage. This leads to a cannon challenge which yields this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Planet Towara		In the last area, just before the exit, this piece can be found guarded by a Blizzard Guard.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Gabbel Moon		One of the staircases hides a side-passage leading to a round-trip door. Inside, Kirby will need to race a Key Dee to get its Key and obtain the picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Star Lavadom		In the last area, the rare picture piece can be spotted traveling along one of the floors moving in. Kirby will need to grab it before it gets enclosed, but also watch out for the meteor falling in that direction.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Sizzlai Moon		One of the slopes when peeled away reveals a barrel which conceals a round-trip door. Inside, Kirby will need to carry a Key through a meteor shower to unlock a cache containing this piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Jambandra Base		There are several steps to collecting this piece. First, Kirby and his allies must hit all of the switches while in the first Friend Circle section in order to reach the round-trip door past the normal end. Once inside, there is a puzzle consisting of several parts, ending with a four-Fuse Cannon blast. To solve this puzzle, Kirby will need the following; Fire, Stone, Sword or Cutter, and Ice.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	The Divine Terminus		In the second hallway, a round-trip door can be found which leads to a Key challenge. Completing this challenge yields the picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Extra Planet α		Along the first path, Kirby will first need to find a round-trip door concealed by leaves in the evening to find a Hammer Copy Essence. From there, further down the path, there is a pool which contains an electric Stake. Plugg or Waddle Doo can be found on the path at various times of day which can provide the Zap effect needed. At night, the pool freezes, and can be broken through using a Fire-based ability. Once the electric post is hit, a door appears which leads to a room containing many goodies, including this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Extra Planet β		In the middle of the breezy cave, a Stake can be pounded to reveal a round-trip door. Through the door is a puzzle with two parts, solving which reveals this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Extra Planet γ		In the first volcanic area, Kirby will need to pick up a Key along the path and ferry it safely to the end of the area. From there, a round-trip door can be accessed which leads to an Icicle Lance challenge to obtain this picture piece.
Far-Flung Starlight Heroes	Extra Planet δ		On the second main path, three sets of dynamite can be seen in the ceiling. First, an electric ability is needed to open the gate to the dynamites' fuse. From there, the Sizzle Staff is necessary to light the fuse. Doing so reveals a cache of treasure, with the piece being inside the center chest.

Trivia

• When collecting a Rare Picture Piece for the first time, whoever collected it will briefly pose with the item, like when key items like Code Cubes are collected in previous titles.
• In the Demo version of Kirby Star Allies, Picture Pieces can be collected and used to partially fill in pictures, but they are not saved, so a picture cannot be completed.
