Iggy (film character)

Iggy is a cousin and henchmen of President Koopa in the Super Mario Bros. movie. His full name is Ignatius. He and his other cousin, Spike, refer to themselves as "The Super Koopa Cousins" when pitching a video game based on their life experiences. Iggy is divorced and ends up lending his ex-wife's clothes to Luigi so that he could fit in at the Boom Boom Bar.

Iggy is based on the Koopaling Iggy Koopa. While the names are similar, the only thing the two have in common is the fact that they are both high-ranking minions of Koopa/Bowser.

Iggy and Spike are always together as they serve King Koopa. While they often bicker and abuse each other, they also think alike, forming schemes and even finishing each other's sentences on occasion. Iggy claims to be the "brains" of the duo, though neither of them is very smart. Eventually, Koopa gets fed up with their ineptitude and evolves his cousins to the "Advanced" level; once in possession of a much higher intelligence, Iggy eventually turns on Koopa, as does Spike. They make a deal with Mario and Luigi, and eventually meet up with Princess Daisy. They claim they were always her loyal supporters, and lead her to her father, before fleeing Koopa's Tower. They are never seen again after that event.
