The Tiny Titan (known as the Rally Romper in the British English version) is a kart in the Mario Kart series. It is based on the Monster from Famicom Grand Prix II: 3D Hot Rally, which is in turn based on a Volkswagen Beetle open-top custom buggy; this is further shown in its Japanese name, which is a direct reference to the game. The emblem is located on the hood, sides, and rear.
Toad's kart in The Super Mario Bros. Movie resembles the Tiny Titan.
History[edit]
Mario Kart Wii[edit]
The Tiny Titan first appears in Mario Kart Wii. It is a small kart which has the best off-road among all karts in the game, enabling it to take off-road shortcuts without losing almost any speed. It has decent speed, but its drift is low. The vehicle's other statistics are around average, and it is the heaviest small vehicle in the game; it is one of only two small vehicles in the game with a weight stat of thirty or higher, the other being the Mini Beast. However, the Tiny Titan has the worst drift stat out of all the small vehicles, being the only small vehicle in the game with a drift stat below thirty. Its weight and drift are tied with the Zip Zip, with the latter stat also being the same as that of the Spear. Its mini-turbo is tied with the Phantom.
The Tiny Titan is unlocked by unlocking one expert staff ghost, by winning 50 races online or by playing 1,200 races. This kart has a 2-stroker twin cylinder engine placed in the back similar to its real-life counterpart, which has a flat four-stroke engine. Its bike counterpart is the Magikruiser, and its medium counterpart is the Super Blooper.
If the babies ride the Tiny Titan, its weight will surpass that of both the Super Blooper and Sneakster; its weight will become that of both the Classic Dragster and Dolphin Dasher if Baby Mario or Baby Luigi rides it. Otherwise, it is only heavier than the Mini Beast and Sugarscoot.
If Baby Luigi or Baby Daisy rides the Tiny Titan, its speed will surpass that of both the Super Blooper and Shooting Star by one point.

Mario Kart World[edit]
The Tiny Titan returns in Mario Kart World.[1][2] Compared to its appearance in Mario Kart Wii, it has various changes. It only has Baby Mario's color scheme regardless of the driver using it, it has much smaller tires (which feature the Luigi Tires branding), door handles, a fully-black spoiler rather than a white spoiler with a green stripe, redesigned exhaust pipes, and the driver's emblem is displayed only on the hood; its side and rear locations from Wii have been removed, with the sides receiving various sponsor stickers. Though the tires are now much smaller than in Wii, they go back to their original size when driving off-road.
In terms of stats, the Tiny Titan has great speed and decent weight, but weak acceleration and low handling. It shares its stats with the Chargin' Truck, Li'l Dumpy, Mecha Trike, and Bowser Bruiser.
This kart is randomly used by the CPU-controlled Mario (Pro Racer), Luigi (Pro Racer), Yoshi (Pro Racer), Baby Mario (Pro Racer), Baby Luigi (Pro Racer), and Shy Guy (Slope Styler).
Mario Kart Tour[edit]
The Tiny Titan returns in Mario Kart Tour in the 2025 rerun of the Sunshine Tour. The kart itself, three variants of the kart, and mechanic variants of Mario and Luigi were released as part of a special campaign to celebrate the launch of Mario Kart World. Like World, it only uses Baby Mario's color scheme regardless of the driver, and its overall size is similar to its on-road appearance; however, unlike World, it has a white spoiler with a green stripe, and the emblem locations on the sides and rear of the kart return like its original appearance in Wii. Unlike both, the Mario Kart logo appears on the front in place of the Nintendo logo. It is a High-End kart that uses the Firefly's tires, which make them look similar to the size of its original tires in World, and it increases the duration of Rocket Start speed boosts and the number of points earned for performing a Rocket Start.
The three aforementioned variants of the kart are called the Cool Tiny Titan, the Desert Tiny Titan, and the Rainbow Tiny Titan, which are also all designated as High-End karts.

Trading Card information[edit]
