All the Koopalings look relatively similar to Bowser and Bowser Jr., but lack horns on their head. Three of them (Larry,  Wendy and in part Iggy) have blue eyes much like Bowser in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. Ludwig and Morton have grey eyes, while Lemmy has eyes without visible irises. Morton has a unique darker complexion, and three have heads that are not green in colouration (Morton's head is white and Roy's is pink while Wendy's head matches the rest of her body's yellow coloration). All the Koopalings have various distinguishing features, such as varying numbers of teeth protruding from their snouts and unique hair styles and colours. Oddly, their sprites in ''Super Mario World'' gave them all white hair and colouration that did not match their artwork. While most of the Koopalings originally had green shells, redesigns introduced with ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' gave them all unique shell colours. Other aspects of their preexisting designs were also tweaked, such as Iggy's hair being green rather than multicoloured, and their heights and builds being more varied, with Iggy now the tallest, followed by Morton, Ludwig, Roy, Larry, Wendy and finally Lemmy, who was the runt of the litter in their original appearances as well. Their tails also became visible in their official artwork starting from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', having only been seen in some sprite depictions until this point. Interestingly, while after ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' Bowser's eyes returned red, the blue-eyed Koopalings never had their eye colour changed to red. In their appearances in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', because they are model swaps of Bowser Jr., all of the Koopalings appear roughly the same height as one another, most notably with Roy, Iggy, Morton and Lemmy (although Iggy is still thin).

All the Koopalings' designs were modified in the DIC cartoons, although they were still recognizable.
