Variant of Lift

Disappearing platforms[1] are platforms in Super Mario Galaxy 2 and its Nintendo Switch port. They appear in Sky Station Galaxy. Each of these lifts has a set designation marked by a transparent outline of the platform. Reaching this spot causes it to flash blue and disappear. A giant variation of these lifts appears in the Supermassive Galaxy.
