Variants

Mega Guys[1] are a type of Shy Guy found in Yoshi's New Island. Mega Guys spawn from large pipes, and unlike the game's regular-sized Shy Guys, they are impervious to stomps and constantly walk forward, turning around only once they reach a wall. A Yoshi can swallow them to turn them into Mega Eggdozers, which can be used to destroy otherwise indestructible obstacles. Mega Guys require a bit more effort than normal to swallow, as the player has to rapidly press A Button to do so. A metallic variant known as Metal Guys also appears, and they are used to make Metal Eggdozers.
