KP Koopas are Koopa Troopas who have dyed their shells gold. Only two KP Koopas are ever encountered; they and a single KP Paratroopa are all members of the Glitz Pit fighting team, the KP Koopas. It is explicitely stated that KP Koopas have the same abilities as normal Koopa Troopas, and merely differ in colouration.
Their appearance in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is that of yellow-shelled Koopas, however naturally yellow-shelled Koopas appeared in the earlier title, Super Mario World. Therefore, the fact that KP Koopas were lauded for their unusual shell-colour indicates they were actually golden shells, and just appeared yellow due to graphical limitations (the Gold Star appearing in the same game also had yellow sprites). Also like the Gold Star, KP Koopas are called "Gold Koopas" in French, whereas they were never referred to as having yellow shells in any version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.
