The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Other mistake: When Koopa's controls are messed up by Bunsun, an explosive shoots out one of Koopa's toes, destroying a nearby structure. In the next shot, bullet bills are being fired out of his toes. (00:02:55)

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: As the fight between Koopa and the Plumbinator begins, in one shot the camera zooms in to Koopa while under the Plumbinator's legs. Robo Koopa's color is light blue in this shot, when it is dark blue in the rest of the episode. (00:10:15)

Yoshi

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Factual error: Koopa tries to kill the Mario brothers, Bunsun and Dr. Nerdnik by pushing an electric pole at them. Mario and Luigi use a nearby fire hydrant to protect them by having water rush out of it and keeping the pole from crushing them. There is no way a single blast of water can stop a large pole from falling, and the brothers would have been electrocuted as soon as the water hit the pole. (00:07:00)

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: When the Marios are hurting enemies and freeing Dr. Nerdnik, Mario kicks through a gate at the start of the scene in order to get inside. This gate disappears, once when Bunsun pushes the doctor through the hole, and twice at the end of the scene. (00:04:45 - 00:06:30)

Yoshi

Mario Mario: That's a heaping helpin' of moolah.
Luigi: Yeah and that's a lot of money too.

Show generally

Question: Why was Toad's color palette sometimes way different, primarily in the first couple of episodes? Why didn't they bother changing this with the final results? It's relatively inconsistent on what palette is used in each episode, despite the fact the more recognizable of the two (white mushroom with red spots along with a variety of coloring in clothes) is shown much more often than the other (red mushroom with white spots along with the majority of his clothes being red and white).
