Lemmy Koopa: Difference between revisions

While said mohawk was always shown as having six tips, its coloring changed over time. Originally, the colors went from magenta to blue, magenta again, yellow, and then green. Since the North American manual of ''[[Super Mario World]]'', the second magenta streak was instead colored orange, with the ''Nintendo Power'' guide for the game still using the old coloring in the artwork. In the ''Nintendo Official Guidebook'' of ''Super Mario Collection'' (Japanese name of ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'') Lemmy's hair was shown with only three streaks: a magenta one, followed by a cyan one and a yellow one, this coloring was reused in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' and in his unused sprites for ''Super Princess Peach''. In his newest design this latter order was kept, but starting with a yellow stripe, and three stripes having the same order were added, along with the addition of a yellow ponytail that blends into orange at the tip. Furthermore, each tip has its own color, and his 3D models, as well as ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', show the mohawk as being formed by six separated strands, each with its own color.

   

With his redesign in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', like the Koopalings who had green shells, Lemmy's was given a unique color, orange. Aside from its spikes being updated to an off-white color they were also given yellow rings. The color of the two stripes on the left side of his head was also changed from pink to orange, possibly to match his shell color. He also has a braid on the back of his head. Furthermore, his snout was also shortened and his artwork, as well as hand-drawn illustrations, started to show his tail, which previously was shown exclusively in the sprites of the games.
