The massive Paper Macho Shy Guys as encountered in Paper Mario: The Origami King are especially challenging (and uber creepy) compared to their smaller red-robed siblings. These robed, cult-like enemies bum-rush Mario whenever they see him. Despite the standard Shy Guys’ basic movement in the game, subspecies, such as the gas mask-wearing, projectile-launching Snifit have different behaviors that greatly add to Mario’s problems. Watch out!ĭespite their namesake, the masked Shy Guys are actually quite open… and aggressive. Unchained Chain Chomps, however, give a new meaning to “who let the dogs out”. Once you have a Chain Chomp’s attack range figured out, they aren’t that difficult to maneuver around. While this allows Mario to better gauge his next move, the Chain Chomp’s unpredictable lunge becomes the challenge! Like an eager puppy ready to be taken out for a walk (down to its adorable “arf! arf!” audio cue), Chain Chomps both delight and irritate with their irresistible canine charm.
Like the Piranha Plant (for the most part), Chain Chomps are grounded and unable to roam free. Typically sprouting from Warp Pipes, Piranha Plants often lure Mario into unnecessary combat (and potential death!) Mario’s desire to see what treasures await on the other side proving too tempting to resist. Thankfully, most of the monsters are rooted in one spot (beware the walking Stalking Piranha Plant!), allowing Mario to carefully calculate a jump over them. Mario may even get lucky and encounter a cowardly Eep Cheep yellow colored Cheep Cheeps that actually swim away from Mario when he gets close.īased on the Venus flytrap, Piranha Plants are carnivorous creatures that have a hankering for Mario meat. His best defense against these simple aquatic foes is by carefully just swimming past them. Aside from Super Mario 3D Land, Mario is left without his trademark stomp in battling Cheep Cheeps. Where Goombas pose a bumbling threat to Mario on land, Cheep Cheeps bring the bumbling threat underwater. Lazily swimming fish, Cheep Cheeps may lack the single-minded destructive intent of the Goomba, but their mere presence in the water is a pesky obstacle for Mario to overcome. With flying winged Paragoombas and massive, multi-stomp Grand Goombas added to the mix, defeating the lowly Goomba ranks can quickly become quite challenging.Ī Super Mario character staple from the start, no Mario toy collection should be without a Goomba or two (or three). As the very first enemy encountered in Super Mario, the Goomba may appear slow and clumsy, however, these shiitake mushroom-inspired villains are not to be underestimated. With strength in numbers, multiple Goombas can easily trip up Mario putting his jumping skills to the test. While most mushrooms benefit Mario in his endless quest to save Princess Peach, these fiendish fungi seek to stop him. What follows are 10 of our favorite Super Mario enemies, all of which also have toys produced of them in some form or another (photos from our collection below) be it collectible micro figures, vinyl toys or full-blown action figures. As such, we’re always on the lookout for new bad guy Mario toys to collect. From Goombas to Paragoombas, the more obscure the enemy type, the better. Thankfully, there is no shortage of imaginative Super Mario video game characters, especially when it comes to the colorful army of enemies Mario must face. However, there are only so many figures of the famed plumber (and his brother Luigi) one can collect before experiencing Mario burnout. From our love of the original NES game, 3D Super Mario Galaxy titles for the Wii, to Mario’s current Mario Odyssey and Paper Mario: The Origami King Switch adventures, we absolutely adore the fun video game world Nintendo has created.Īnother thing the wife and I both agree on are Super Mario collectibles. Her small collection of Mario items quickly fueled the Mario-collecting bug in me our combined passion culminating in a rather sizeable display of Mario toys.

If there is one video game series that me and my wife can both agree on, it’s Super Mario.
