First submission SINCE OCTOBER. Wow.

Hello again, kids!

You know, back in the old days when good video games didn't make sense or need a coherent story to be a good game, there was a plucky hero named Mario. He had a lovely game and everyone loved it. Yay. He then made a sequel, and all was still right with the land. Then, he unleashed a third game that showed the world seven little bastards that rocked Mario's and my world. They were the Koopa Kids, AKA the Koopalings. They reappeared in Super Mario World and again in Yoshi's Safari. But then...they dropped off the face of the planet (And their Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga Cameo doesn't count. That was a rip-off) and they aren't seen anymore. In fact, there's now a Bowser Jr. running around.
What
The
Fuck
is this shit? Did they just FORGET the original kids? What the hell happened? Why were they dumped? They all had unique looks and personalities.....and Bowser Jr. is just a mini-Bowser! No change! What happened to the kids I adored as a kid? They were my favorite characters in the Mario Universe!! I mean, Shigeru Miyamoto's team seem to be constantly looking for filler characters in their games....YOU HAVE SEVEN FUCKING CHARACTERS AT YOUR DISPOSAL!! Fuck putting Petey Pirahna and King Boo and Toadette and Waluigi in Mario Kart! SEVEN FUCKING EXISTING, MEANINGFUL CHARACTERS.
You know, the new game coming, "Super Princess Peach," had some hackers breaking into the beta of the game. Guess what they found? Sprites of Iggy and Morton Koopa! I rejoiced. I thought this might be their come back and I was going to buy the game. Guess what? Several people played the Japanese import and beat the game....finding no Koopa Kid in sight.

So, I have redesigned their images. Why? Over the years, Bowser got some muscles and got beefy. I figured the Kids could get a revamp of their own. So I changed them around and altered their appearance.

Wake the fuck up, Nintendo. You know you want to use them. Hell, they would have made great team members in Super Mario Strikers!

PLEASE DO NOT STEAL. THESE TOOK A LOT OF EFFORT AND TIME AND I'M NOT AFRAID TO SUE.
