Image

Previously, this article was deleted, and with that, i was wondering... Is there any existing images for this? Master Crash

There was, but that image cannot be restored.--Knife (talk) 22:51, 9 May 2011 (EDT)

Ah, damn. Well, i guess i'll look around and try to find an image. Master Crash

Besides the spear that these Shy Guys carry (which is really only an aesthetic thing; they don't actually attack with the spears), there isn't any real difference between these Shy Guys and the rest of the Shy Guy toys in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series. The thing where they turn into a block reappears in Mini-Land Mayhem! (albeit under slightly different circumstances), so I really fail to see why this gets its own article with such minor differences between the other Shy Guy toys. I feel like this page should be deleted and its contents merged with the main Shy Guy toy page.

Shouldn't we also merge Shy Guy (toy) with Shy Guy? It's odd to separate them, the difference is so minor. Bob-ombs are also toys in the series but they do not get their own page. I guess this would also apply to Pokey (toy), Katakata Hakkun, Katakata Kaen Heihō, Phantom Guy. What do you guys think?

I'm not sure that's such a good idea. I think, while being relatively similar, they are still different. Think about it; you wouldn't merge Metal Mario with Mario, would you? Quizmelon (talk) 11:12, 20 September 2016 (EDT)

Hello. I am the one who proposed the merge with Pokey. It basically ended in a tie (but it happened to be a change of name). Just letting you guys know about it. Yoshi the SSM (talk) 11:51, 20 September 2016 (EDT)

We merge Goombas and Paper Goombas because they're functionally the same. We separate Mario and Metal Mario because they have been established to be different characters. I feel this situation is more similar to the Goomba/Paper Goomba one. But the point is moot since that's not at all what this proposal was about. And YoshiSSM, I saw your TPP after I added the comment above.
