Special 8-1
Star Medal 1: The first star coin is waiting over a spiked roller. Star Medal 2: Even the second one is not hiding particularly well above this brittle ground. Star Medal 3: Of the last one, however, you can only see the shadow on the floor next to the warp pipe at the end.
Special 8-2
Star Medal 1: Runs straight on the rotating platforms, then to the right and finally back to the front, where the first star coin is above the third. Star Medal 2: Now two moles attack you from the front. But there is a third one, which is on the far left in a warp pipe. Jump on his head to get into the warp pipe. Here you now need the Tanookie ski jump to screw up with the wheel in the middle, where you can get the second star coin. Star Medal 3: The last coin is on a small island on the far right just before the level exit.
Special 8-3
Star Medal 1: The first star coin is close to the beginning over sinking platforms in the lava. Star Medal 2: The second requires a Wall Jump against the Rock Block to get to them. Star Medal 3: The third star coin is well hidden in the left of the three pillars. Air to her to have her destroyed by Cosmic Clone.
Special 8-4
Star Medal 1: The first star coin is on the right of the reel. Star Medal 2: Even number two, you best get off with the boomerang from the small platform. Star Medal 3: Just like the last one to the right of the level exit above the lava.
Special 8-5
Star Medal 1: Flee from Cosmic Clone to the bottom left and collect the first star coin. Star Medal 2: For the second you have to make a skid to the top. Star Medal 3: Jumps at the last reels, in front of the ship with the end flag, to the left on a small gray, on which the last star coin is perched.
Special 8 lock
Star Medal 1: The first star coin is located above the question mark box right after you enter the green platform. Star Medal 2: The second is on the top left of the three Hammer Bros. Star Medal 3: The last star coin can be found at Final Boss: Bowser on the platform to the left of the bridge, at the end of which is the Color Switch.
