Mini Paulines are wind-up toys based on Pauline that first appear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!.
History[edit]
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem![edit]
At the start of the game, the Mini Pauline toys are given to the first 100 guests at Mini Land Theme Park. Donkey Kong tries to obtain one, but finds that he is the 101st guest to arrive, causing him to go on a rampage and kidnap the real Pauline. After Plus Mode is complete, Mario finally gives Donkey Kong a Mini Pauline.
Mini Paulines also appear in the fourth level of both Cannon Cove and Super Skywheel, respectively. Like other Minis, they are encased in capsules and can be freed when a Mini makes contact with one. In Plus Mode, they appear starting in Warped Mansion+. Notably, Mini Paulines are always the last type of mini to enter the Goal Door in levels that they appear in Plus Mode.
Mini Paulines are unlocked in the Construction Zone for Multi-Door after the player defeats Donkey Kong in Cannon Cove. To unlock them for the same mode in other levels, the player has to get 100% for both Normal and Plus Modes on at least one file.
Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move[edit]
In Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move, after completing every minigame once, the player can use Mini Paulines.
In this game, Mini Pauline's appearance is slightly redesigned: it no longer has dress straps, and has pink lips and ball-shaped hands instead of "C"-shaped ones, and a more updated hair and body shape. In the Toy Collection mode, Mini Pauline also has its own version of the game's theme song. Furthermore, as an homage to Pauline's earlier appearances, Mini Pauline shouts, "Help! Help!" when it is in danger and waves at the player in the Toy Collection mode.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars[edit]
Mini Paulines reappear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars, acting the same as in previous games. They are not found in the Main Game until Dashing Desert in Level 5-2, and also appear in Multi-Door levels that follow after. They also appear in the Bonus Levels starting with Level B-9.
To unlock them for use in the Workshop, the player must buy them for 100 stars in the Gameplay Set section of the Workshop Store.
Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge[edit]
While Mini Pauline does not appear in Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge, one can be seen in one of the screenshots on an in-game advertisement for Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars.
