Wallop

Wallop are enemies introduced in Super Mario 3D Land. They pop out of the ground blocking progress.

Appearance & Behavior
They are very similar to Whomps in body type except for being shorter and lacking arms. They resemble castle walls with various bricks in their body and the ridges on top of its head. It has large black eyes with yellow pupils. Their legs are stubbier than a Whomps.

Wallops pop out of the ground when Mario approaches. Instead of trying to squash Mario like a Whomp, Wallops follow Mario's movements and jump whenever he does, which are followed by a slam into the ground. After which, they will be stuck so Mario can pass them.

After Mario leaves, the Wallops go to sleep with their pupils turning dark and their feet retreating inside them. They can be defeated by being crushed by Statue Mario.
