Similarity?

 * Is it just me or is this basically a nether slime? -fireglo450
 * Basically, yes (at least in terms of usefulness). However, the .png file is quite different from that of the slimes, and is called "lava." So I am NOT in favor of calling them "Nether slimes." That just sounds silly. -cal-erstein
 * Unfortunately it's a slime's reskin. Mojang workers are just twirling on their seats instead of doing their jobs and adding a very new separate mobs, :( Xeoxer 20:12, 23 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Not really. The animation is quite different to the slime's. They split when they jump. – ultradude25 ( T &#124; C ) at 02:03, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Why call them Nether Slimes? We could call them Lava Coils (for their spring-like jumping poses) or Magma Slimes ( so everyone can be happy) or Evily Cute But Doesn't Anhilate Anything If They Are Small And Wow This Is The Worst Acronym Ever (E.C.B.D.A.A.I.T.A.S.A.W.T.I.T.W.A.E Slimes) BlockBarracade 04:19, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

drops
dont they drop nothing as of now... -Wally

If you follow the "Magma Ball" link it tells you that it is NOT an item, and I would assume not a drop. Provided this is true, I move that the drop be changed to unknown, none, or some such. Cultist O 04:37, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * The "magma ball" is the new fireball texture --HexZyle 14:07, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

I think they should drop Magma Sacs. They could be used for Crafting Magma Gels. They burn any mob that walk across it.BlockBarracade 04:21, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

Name?
According to the infobox, these are called "Lava Slimes" internally by Minecraft. Where does the "Magma Cube" name come from? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 23:46, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
