Its effects are similar to that of a [[Spiny Shell (Mario Kart Item)|Winged Spiny Shell]], though unlike a Winged Spiny Shell, it can only be fired straight and has a higher appearance rate.

One of the artworks from ''[[Super Mario Land]]'' depicts the [[Bombshell Koopa]] with a black shell. In the game, the shell detonates within a few seconds after the hero stomps on the Koopa. Some evidently high-ranking members of the [[Koopa Troop]], such as the [[Fire Bro]]s. from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', [[Black Ninjakoopa]], and [[Lakithunder]], are shown to wear non-exploding Black Shells. Additionally, in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Lakitu]]s, and [[Hammer Bro]]s. were portrayed as wearing, as the episode "[[Mario and Joliet]]" showed, fire-proof Black Shells.

*The '''Black Pac-Bomb''' in ''[[Wikipedia:Pac-Man World Rally|Pac-Man World Rally]]'' is similar to the Black Shell. This is the same with the [[Green Shell]], [[Red Shell]], and [[Blue Shell]], which are all similar to their respective '''Pac-Bomb''' companions.
