Rift Koopas[1] are a type of Koopa Troopa appearing in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. They appear only in the level Beware of the Rifts, where they appear during a Wonder Effect. They will damage players on contact and, unlike regular Koopa Troopas, cannot be jumped on to be forced into their shells.

An unused model of Rift Koopa appears in the game data, which is nearly identical besides wearing sunglasses.
