| A '''Buzzy Shell'''<ref>"Mario's Moves" from [[Yamamura's Dojo]], ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''</ref> (also called a '''Buzzy Beetle Shell''' in ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'') is the [[Buzzy Beetle]] equivalent of the [[shell]] worn by [[Koopa Troopa]]s. Like its counterpart, after the Buzzy Beetle retracts into its shell after being [[stomp]]ed on, it can be kicked to send it sliding along the ground, defeating any enemy it hits. Unlike [[Koopa Shell]]s, however, Buzzy Shells are fireproof.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', if a Buzzy Shell is taken into a [[Warp Pipe]], the shell becomes empty and can be held indefinitely. If [[Yoshi]] eats a Buzzy Shell, he [[swallow]]s it immediately, unlike with a Koopa Shell.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', the [[Flashy Shell]] sticker depicts a Buzzy Shell. When it is used, [[Mario]] stomps on a Buzzy Beetle, sending it into its shell, and kicks the shell to attack enemies.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', [[Nabbit]] may take out a Buzzy Shell while battling alongside the Mario Bros. during the [[Bad Nabbit]] mission. He then imitates the [[Red Shell#Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam|3D Red Shell]] [[Bros. Attack]], with either Mario or [[Luigi]].
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS'', and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', the Buzzy Shell appears as an [[List of items|item]] Mario can wear on his head. It is created by shaking a Buzzy Beetle in the editor mode to make it hide inside its shell. When an empty Buzzy Shell falls onto Mario's head or he [[crouch]]es while holding it (except in the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' style), he wears the shell as a helmet, becomes '''Buzzy Mario''', and can take an extra hit. The Buzzy Shell also protects Mario from [[Spike Trap]]s that are above his head, along with enemies attacking from above (such as [[Thwomp]]s), for as long as the player is wearing one. The Buzzy Shell can also knock enemies upward. They make the collision sound effect when deflected. Buzzy Shells can deflect enemy attacks and defeat certain enemies instantly. When Mario ducks as [[Small Mario]], walking enemies bounce off him as if he were a wall, though this behavior was removed in ''Super Mario Maker 2''. Buzzy Shells can allow Small Mario to break [[Brick Block]]s.
| |
| | |
| The Buzzy Shells can be kicked and act similarly to any other shell that slides along the ground, meaning they can harm Mario on contact while sliding unless he touches one from below, in which he wears the shell. If empty Buzzy Shells are shot out of a [[Bill Blaster]], they cannot be stomped, but Mario can ride the shells instead.
| |
| | |
| Once wearing the Buzzy Shell, Mario cannot take it off willingly unless he takes damage or collects a [[Mystery Mushroom]]. However, a [[glitch]] does exist that allows Mario to wear the Buzzy Shell while using the [[Costume Mario]] power-up, but it can be executed only in the Course Maker. The glitch was fixed as of version 1.30. In edit mode, Mario can be shaken to remove the Buzzy Shell, as well as reverting back to Small Mario if any other power-up was given to him.
| |
| | |
| Buzzy Shells make a minor appearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', where they are donated by Buzzy Beetles to repair the [[Koopa Cruiser]], although [[Captain Koopa Troopa]]'s rhymes nearly cause them to be taken back.

| | The '''Shell Helmet''' is an [[item]] exclusive to ''[[Super Mario Maker]]''; when a shell item falls onto [[Mario]], it will land on top of him and protect him with an extra hit. A few of the easier ways to obtain the Shell Helmet is either by grabbing and throwing a [[shell]] up and waiting for the shell to return, or jump up into a shell riding on the line guides. |
