Shy Guy (Toy)

The toy version of a Shy Guy appeared in 2004 video game called Mario vs Donkey Kong. Shy Guys, also known as Red Mini Shy Guys, are Shy Guy toys appearing in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series. They act similarly to Shy Guys from Super Mario Bros. 2, simply patrolling left to right on a platform. Touching them from the sides is harmful for both the Mini toys and Mario. They are among the weakest enemies in the series and can be defeated with any form of attack available in a game, of which the most commonly seen are Hammers. As they are basic enemies, Shy Guys often appear in early levels and only occasionally return in later levels. It is unknown if the Mario Toy Company created these toys, along with Mario's other windup foes.
