==Bandits showing their faces?== | |||
"In some cases, Bandits will show their faces while hiding if Yoshi isn't looking at them." I haven't played Yoshi's Island DS, so maybe they do that in that game, but in the original game, they merely turn their heads left and right when you're not looking at them. Can anyone confirm that they show their faces in any Yoshi game?--[[User:Vellidragon|vellidragon]] 14:46, 20 December 2009 (EST) | |||

How the heck are Bandits related to Shy Guys? Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- Well, this is another one of the many conjectures in this wiki --

- I wonder how many of these conjectures are out there. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- They both wear robes and cover their faces with a mask (or their faces are masks). Development-wise, they're clearly inspired by the previous Shy Guys, but any suggestion of in-universe relation would be speculatory. Logical speculation, but still speculation. Redstar 12:24, 3 December 2009 (EST)
- Shy Guy's mask is a mask. Bandit's mask is a face. In Mario Power Tennis, whenever Shy Guy won a trophy, he'd trip, which makes his mask fall off his face. Bandit's "mask" changes expressions with ease, so I doubt it's a mask. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- That's why I acknowledged the possibility. But, just like Bandit, Shy Guy's have had their masks be emotive as well, though not as much as Bandit. Regardless, it very much looks like a mask, and since we know Shy Guys have masks and Bandits were more than likely based off of Shy Guys, there's a strong sense they're masks as well. Besides, looking at the images on the actual article shows straps around the head that meet with the mask/face. Redstar 12:41, 3 December 2009 (EST)
- I guess you have a point about the mask part. You know, I think that one of the NPC Bandits from the Paper Mario says something about his mask or face. I'm not sure, though. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- Probably. I might be playing through Paper Mario again soon, so I can keep a look out for it... I just noticed that the Tattle information at the bottom of the page for Paper Mario says "face". There's a lot of contradicting information about this, isn't there? Would make a fun "controversy" section... Here's a thought: what if his face is a mask? Redstar 12:51, 3 December 2009 (EST)

- In case it matters any, ボロドー (Bandits) are described as wearing white masks similar to those of ヘイホー (Shy Guys) on Japanese Wikipedia, but Shy Guys aren't mentioned anywhere else in the article. However, a link to the article on Shy Guys does appear in the related links at the bottom.--vellidragon 12:54, 3 December 2009 (EST)
