m (Kirbeat moved page Metal Block to Metal block: The source of the name is from a part of a manual that esscentially uppercases everything. The game of that manual calls them "metal blocks" in lowercase like 13 times so that spelling seems to be the more appropiate one.)

A '''Metal Block'''<ref>Name taken from ''Kirby Mass Attack'' Instruction Booklet (EU print), page 16</ref> is a type of [[block]] which is characterized by its shiny silver appearance and its resistance to most forms of attack. First appearing in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', Metal Blocks are used to block off access to certain valuable items or optional areas, and require specific [[Copy Ability]] attacks or other methods to break, such as using a [[cannon]] or an explosive device. In some instances, metal blocks may be disguised as part of the terrain, as is the case in [[Rainbow Resort - Stage 1]].

Metal Blocks come in various sizes. Larger ones tend to be more resistant to attacks from Copy Abilities and other characters, functioning more like stone blocks or crystalline blocks. Metal Blocks tend to be easily destroyed by [[Mouthful Mode]] abilities.
