*Heavy Troopas appear to be based on [[Big Koopa Paratroopa|Colossal Koopa Paratroopa]]s from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They look similar also to [[Heavy Para-Beetle]]s from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. The head in their artwork is also shaped exactly the same as that of the overfed [[Baby Yoshi|Baby Fat]], so it is likely the model for the head was reused for both entities in rendering.
