For every type of major collectible seen in 3D Mario games, there has been a different implementation of in-engine coloration in different games.

While regular Power Stars are yellow due to using a yellow texture, Grand Stars in Super Mario Galaxy are black internally, and are colored yellow at runtime. This is implemented this way to allow the "drained" effect seen on the first Grand Star to fade dynamically into its regular coloration.

In Super Mario Odyssey, Power Moons do not actually use differently colored textures, and are white internally while being colored into their various variants at runtime.

In Super Mario Sunshine, Shine Sprites have a white-black gradient texture that is applied at an extremely low intensity to an in-engine yellow color to create a slight gradient that appears like light reflecting off its surface.
