Torpedo Teds are enemies introduced in Super Mario World. They are a variant of Bullet Bills resembling anthropomorphic torpedoes that are dropped underwater by torpedo tubes, their equivalent to Bill Blasters. Torpedo Teds resemble Bullet Bills, having the same white arms and the same jet-black coloration, but they have a distinct smug grin, their eyes are squinted shut, and they each have a propeller on their thrusters. Torpedo Teds are generally invincible, even from fireballs.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario World[edit]

Sprite of a Torpedo Ted in Super Mario World

Torpedo Teds are encountered only in Soda Lake in Super Mario World. They are dropped by gloved arms protruding out of torpedo tubes and deployed in the direction of the player character. Torpedo Teds move relatively quickly in a straight line. Aside from the use of a Super Star, Torpedo Teds can be defeated by thrown objects; this can be achieved in Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 when one plays as Luigi and has a Yoshi eat an enemy (like a Blurp). Since a Yoshi holds enemies for a short while when ridden by Luigi, the player can defeat Torpedo Teds by spitting out the enemy the Yoshi is holding in its mouth at the time. Even as it falls off the screen, a defeated Torpedo Ted can still damage the player.

During development of Super Mario World, Bullet Bill–sized versions of Torpedo Ted were planned.[1] Additionally, the name "Water Killer" is present in prototype assets.[2]

Super Mario Galaxy[edit]

Torpedo Teds (erroneously referred to as Bullet Bills by Prima Games)[3][4] are enemies in Super Mario Galaxy. They appear only in Buoy Base Galaxy and Drip Drop Galaxy, where they are fired from cannons that resemble underwater Bill Blasters. Like the Bullet Bills featured in this game, they home in on the player character rather than travel in a straight line, but unlike them, they make a beeping noise based on how close they are to Mario. They can be defeated either as Rainbow Mario or by causing them to crash into an object. Torpedo Teds do not reappear in the sequel, Super Mario Galaxy 2.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]

Mario encountering Torpedo Teds in New Super Mario Bros. U

Torpedo Teds are enemies in New Super Mario Bros. U alongside black Torpedo Bases, and they make their only appearances in Larry's Torpedo Castle and the The Mighty Cannonship's Bowser Jr. Battle. Torpedo Teds also appear as obstacles in the Penguin vs. Torpedo challenge. They retain their appearance and behavior from Super Mario World, though they are slightly longer, their propellers are red, and the ends holding them are white. The game introduces a Torpedo Ted variation, where red Torpedo Bases launch a red version of Torpedo Teds known as Targeting Teds, which homes in on players in a way similar fashion to the Bullet Bill equivalent, Missile Bill. If the player freezes one, it breaks out immediately. Torpedo Teds can be defeated in Boost Mode and Super Boost Mode; in the former case, when it is frozen, the player can tap on the ice block quickly, while in the latter players can defeat Torpedo Teds simply by tapping on them. Also, simply freezing them when another Torpedo Ted is right in front of them will defeat the frozen one.

Torpedo Teds also appear as enemies in New Super Luigi U. They appear in the first boss battle with Bowser Jr., and in Larry's Trigger-Happy Castle, Torpedo Teds appear with many other varieties of Bullet Bill. They can be seen in the watery areas of the first room.

Super Mario World television series[edit]

A Torpedo Ted, though not named in this appearance, appears only in "Mama Luigi" of the Super Mario World cartoon. One attacks Luigi and Yoshi after they escape a pursuing Rip Van Fish up to the point of the duo reaching the surface. The Torpedo Ted misses both Luigi and Yoshi, who are saved by two friendly Dolphins.

Super Princess Peach[edit]

Torpedo Teds appear in Super Princess Peach. They are encountered in a few underwater areas. Torpedo Teds behave similarly as in Super Mario World. There is also a Joy variant under the influence of the Vibe Scepter, transforming them into G. Torpedo Teds.

Mario Party series[edit]

In Super Mario Party

Torpedo Teds appear in only two games of the Mario Party series. In Mario Party 10, Torpedo Teds are an obstacle in Blooper Blastoff, where they are fired out from Torpedo Bases, and if a player is hit by a Torpedo Ted, they spin out for one second. In Super Mario Party, a Torpedo Ted can sometimes appear in Rattle and Hmmm as one of the choices.

A member of the Bullet Bill (see p. 63) family, it is a type of underwater torpedo. They move through the water at great speed. Mario will have a hard time dodging them because it is difficult to control him underwater.
