“You got bad luck, getting matched up against us.”
Spinia, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

  • Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door's programming reveals what could possibly be another Spinia sub-species (seemingly a hamburger-themed one); even more surprising is that this Spinia-like creature was supposedly going to be an ally of Luigi, as its sprite could be found next to those of Luigi's other partners.
  • Spinias, as well as Spanias and Spunias, may have been the basis for a similar enemy known as the Topmen.
