The Trojan Koopa was the 36th episode of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, airing alongside "Texas Tea".
In the episode King Koopa has kidnapped Princess Toadstool again and is holding her in an island fortress. When the Mario Bros. repeatedly fail to penetrate the fortress's defenses, they trick Bowser into thinking they've given up and left a wooden statue of him as a testament to his greatness. Instead, they're actually hiding inside.
Once Bowser brings the statue inside to admire it the Mario Bros. sneak out but are quickly caught by the guards. Princess Toadstool is actually the one who saves the day by powering up with a Starman and fighting off the Koopa soldiers. They escape the island by using the wooden statue as a boat, while King Koopa uses the bathtub the Mario Bros. used to reach the island, but it is sinking.
Animation and Continuity errors
- When Mario and Toad are pulling the giant slingshot's band, Luigi is using completely green clothes.
- In some shots, the Hammer Bros. have yellow spots on his legs.
- In the second shot with the Hammer Bros. disguised as the Mario Bros., their mustaches are swapped.
Trivia
- This episode makes a few obscure references to the rest of the Mario franchise, including Toad chastising himself for being a bad Mushroom Retainer and later complimenting the Mario brothers on their carpentry of the Trojan Koopa (Mario's experience as a carpenter in his earlier life may have contributed to the construction of the statue).
- When Princess Toadstool used the powers of the Starman, her dress dressed turned red, white and blue, which are the three colors that symbolize the United States of America. It is the only time she uses a power-up in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show.
- The fact that Mario used a statue of Bowser to get inside his fortress is a reference to the Trojan War.
