That's an idea.
Hey, what about the Bob-omb Buddies? You know, the pink ones. Are they any different from the violent black ones?

Okay, dumb question. I guess that one was obvious.

You know the para-goombas and para-koopas, what put the Bobombs and goombas in the sky in the first place?

Possibly cloud transports (like the lakitus have). Maybe even some left-over Doomships that weren't destroyed in SMB3. My guess is they found pipes that led into the clouds and them dove off.

Lakitu transport is good...
Did any of you see the Rise of the Mushroom Kingdom flash series on Video Game Directors Cut?

Yup. Funny stuff. ^_^

Remember the Toads in the Lakitu clouds? Replace them with goombas and bob-ombs.

Exactly what I was thinking. There would probably be a Lakitu pilot or something, though.

Yeah I meant the Lakitu pilots them.

Yup, that sounds pretty plausible.

Ok, I've come to the conclusion that the upright koopas aren't turtles at all. The fact that their shells obviously aren't part of their physiology supports that. As a matter of fact, I'm beginning to think that the new koopas might actually be avian in nature.

I don't smoke. ^_^
But even if they aren't avian, they definately aren't turtles.

Mariology--my anti-drug.
Well, I don't think they're very birdlike at all. . . maybe their beaks are. A thought to remember: turtles can't talk in our world, but Koopas do. Therefore, it shouldn't seem too odd that although our turtles can't detach their shells, Koopas can. I know the shell thing is a little more extreme, but I'm just saying.

Yeah, I know. But the thing is, the only thing that makes turtles turtles is that they have shells. Koopas obviously don't have shells, and thus aren't turtles.

Hermit crabs and other shell inhabiting creatures can come out of their shells and find a new one when they get too big for their old shell.
This should aplly for Koopas.
Much like how Yoshi isn't an ordinary dinosaur, Koopas arn't ordinary turtles.

I suppose.
Perhaps that's what seperates the older quadrapedal koopas from the newer bipedal ones. Their two different species, the older of which are attached to their shells and the newer can find newer ones once they outgrow them. Would that make them essentially "Hermit Koopas"?

I think so. Looks like we have come to a satisfying conclusion on this matter.

Now, the question is; what happened to the original koopas?
