Shy Guys will patrol left to right, but a collision will defeat a [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini Mario]] or [[Mario]] himself. In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', Mario can ride them or pick and throw them (as in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''). Exclusively in the [[Spooky House]] boss stage of the original ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'', [[Donkey Kong]] will hit one of three [[Color Switch]]es to transform the other two unselected and unheld Shy Guys into floating forms resembling [[Phantom Guy]]s with auras. In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]'', Mini Marios can also ride Shy Guys to safely cross certain hazards, although touching the top of a Shy Guy (or any other enemy) will instead instantly break a Mini Mario in later titles. In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!]]'', Shy Guys<ref>"''Shy Guy – Shy Guys prevent Mini Mario from reaching certain areas by patrolling back and forth. Take them out with a hammer, or step on a red color switch to turn them into blocks, allowing Mini Mario to step over them.''" - ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!'' help.</ref> additionally wield spears, but only hold them upright. However, their spears can pass through red girders, harming any above Mini Marios. Unique to ''Minis March Again!'', upon activation of a red Color Switch, Shy Guys transform into stationary solid blocks. When in this state, Shy Guys can be used as a step or bridge to cross harmful areas. Shy Guys can be defeated with [[hammer]]s.
 
It is unknown if the [[Mario Toy Company]] created these toys, but most likely they did not (as they appear to be foes of Mario). They have windup keys behind them, though.
 
In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!]]'', Shy Guys can also fill '''Shy Guy Blocks'''<ref name=Mayhem/>.
