Dry Bones appear in the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'']] animated series, in the episode "[[Send in the Clown]]" and "[[The Night Before Cave Christmas]]". Here, both of them make a very small appearance as they try to keep Mario and [[Yoshi]] from infiltrating [[Bowser's Castle]] or stop Mario from getting a feather. The Dry Bones grabs a bone from out of its throat and throws it at Mario. | Dry Bones appear in the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'']] animated series, in the episode "[[Send in the Clown]]" and "[[The Night Before Cave Christmas]]".

Dry Bones are undead Koopa Troopas with gray bones, dark gray shells, black eyes, yellow pupils, and pale blue shoes and gloves, the latter of which notably are not worn by their living counterparts. A Dry Bones' shell is similarly designed to that of a Koopa Troopa's, but it is gray and features black patterns in between each shell segment. Dry Bones' appearance has changed often, due to receiving changes between games and media, which range from minor changes such as increased or decreased vibrancy in colors, to major alterations such as having longer or shorter limbs, and appearing as a bipedal or quadrupedal creature; however, | Dry Bones are undead Koopa Troopas with gray bones, dark gray shells, black eyes, yellow pupils, and pale blue shoes and gloves, the latter of which notably are not worn by their living counterparts.

Dry Bones' appearance has changed often, due to receiving changes between games and media, which range from minor changes such as increased or decreased vibrancy in colors, to major alterations such as having longer or shorter limbs, and appearing as a bipedal or quadrupedal creature; however, in the GameCube era, Dry Bones' standard appearance was finalized, as with many entities - in particular, Dry Bones received its standardized design in ''Mario Superstar Baseball''. In ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and the [[DIC Entertainment]] ''Super Mario'' cartoons, Dry Bones appears as a quadruped, due to standing on all fours, and never standing upright. The DIC ''Super Mario'' cartoons give Dry Bones hollow eyes, shorter limbs, and longer necks. Additionally, the ''Super Mario Bros.'' style in ''Super Mario Maker'' uses a heavily modified Koopa Troopa sprite, with the lone differences being gray skin, black eyes, and blue pupils. | ||
''Super Mario World'' is the first game to give Dry Bones an upright stance, which would be used in a multitude of subsequent installments. However, Dry Bones' ''Super Mario World'' design comes with exclusive elements not present in other games, such as white pupils, a small set of teeth, and a physically larger stature than the Koopa Troopas. Later games resize Dry Bones so they are the same height and shape as a Koopa Troopa. ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' once again depicts Dry Bones as a quadrupedal species; in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', the Dry Bones in Beanbean Kingdom retain their quadrupedal stature, though their Mushroom Kingdom relatives present in the ''Minion's Quest: The Search For Bowser'' side story are shown in an upright posture, thus suggesting that Dry Bones differ depending on the region. Both ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games depict Dry Bones as bipedal creatures who stand and move in hunched postures, a feature that is reused in ''Super Mario 3D Land'' and for [[Parabones]] in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Super Mario Odyssey''. In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Dry Bones' trophy has a more realistic appearance than its species' main depiction. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Dry Bones' trophy has a more monotone appearance, as well as a darker color scheme and a detailed shell. In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', its trophy has a more vibrant and cartoonish appearance, as well as much less detailing. | ''Super Mario World'' is the first game to give Dry Bones an upright stance, which would be used in a multitude of subsequent installments.

In the first three ''Paper Mario'' games, Dry Bones use their ''Super Mario World'' design, but with three tufts of hair, a feature that is only present in their ''Super Mario World'' artwork. Starting from ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'', Dry Bones use their design from the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series. Additionally, ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' gives Dry Bones a pronounced paper outline. | In the first three ''Paper Mario'' games, Dry Bones use their ''Super Mario World'' design, but with three tufts of hair, a feature that is only present in their ''Super Mario World'' artwork.

In ''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'', Dry Bones have visible neck bones, their eye sockets are more expressive, and their pupils turn red (similar to ''Super Mario 3D Land'') and fiery when angered or hostile. | In ''The Super Mario Bros.
