Three Wonder Seeds
The Secret Store is the only shop in the game that sells three separate Wonder Seeds. For all three you need together:
30 + 100 + 200 = 330 Flower Coins.
All three seeds are among the 36 Wonder Seeds of the Sunbaked Desert and are therefore necessary for 100%.

- Other already unlocked badges
- Random Standees: 10 Flower Coins

Coin Magnet
The exclusive Coin Magnet badge costs a whopping 300 Flower Coins. If you wear it, coins and flower coins are automatically attracted near you.
Since the badge is needed for one of the six 100% medals, you will have to buy it sooner or later.
Special World – Standees stores
In the Special World, there is no normal poplin shop with a Wonder Seed. Instead, you will find the particularly important Standees shop here.
- Random Standees: 10 Flower Coins
- Guaranteed new character stands: 30 Flower Coins
- 99x 1-Up Mushroom: 300 Flower Coins – after victory over Bowser
Guaranteed Standees
For 30 Flower Coins, you can choose a specific character. You will then be guaranteed a standee of this character, which you do not yet own.
This shop is therefore the best place to get the last missing copies of the 144 Standees.
Buying 99 lives
After defeating Bowser, an additional package of 99 1-up mushrooms for 300 Flower Coins will be unlocked. For example, you can prepare for The Final-Final Test Badge Marathon.
New badges after victory over Bowser
After completing “The Final Battle!” Bowser’s Rage Stage will unlock four additional strengthening badges in almost all regular poplin stores:
- All Elephant Power – 100 Flower Coins
- All Fire Power – 100 Flower Coins
- All Bubble Power – 100 Flower Coins
- All Drill Power – 100 Flower Coins
With these badges, each collected list of power-ups automatically transforms you into the selected form.
If you want to own all 24 badges, you have to visit a poplin shop again after defeating Bowser and buy the four badges.
Which poplin offers are necessary for 100%?
If you’re Super Mario Bros. If you want to complete Wonder completely, you should pay attention to two types of offers.
Wonder Seeds
Buyable Wonder Seeds, like the seeds from normal levels, are among the 225 Wonder Seeds. If you lack a single seed in a world, you should always check the poplin shop first.
Particularly easy to miss are:
- The Wonder Seeds of the Pipe-Rock Plateau
- The two Wonder Seeds from the Petal Isles shops,
- The Three Wonder Seeds from the Secret Desert Shop
- The Wonder Seeds of the Fungi Mines and
- Wonder Seeds by Deep Magma Bog.
Badges
Several of the total of 24 badges are unlocked exclusively or mainly through poplin stores. For the badge medal, you have to buy these offers.
Particularly important are:
- Coin Reward
- Add! Blocks
- Safety Bounce
- Timed High Jump
- Fast Dash
- Coin Magnet
- All Elephant Power
- All Fire Power
- All Bubble Power
- All Drill Power
What should I buy first?
Flower Coins are limited to 999 pieces. Especially during the main story, you should therefore not buy everything indiscriminately.
Our recommendation:
- Buy exclusive badges.
- Buy Wonder Seeds if you want to complete a world 100%.
- Only after that do many Flower Coins spend on Standees.
- Only buy 1-up mushrooms when you really need them.
Especially the three Wonder Seeds in the secret desert shop cost together 330 Flower Coins. It is therefore worth putting aside some money for this.
Getting Flower Coins Fast
If you are missing for a Wonder Seed or a badge Flower Coins, you can play already completed levels again.
Good sources for additional flower coins are:
- normal small flower coins in the levels,
- already collected 10 flower coins – if collected again they give three flower coins,
- the five Captain Toad locations with 50 Flower Coins each,
- Level with many opponents along with the badge Coin Reward.
All five Captain Toad hideouts bring you 250 Flower Coins together.
