The last default costume recolor resembles his appearance on the Japanese cover for ''Super Mario Bros.''. Dry Bowser received additional recolors, his team colors representing the Dry Bone colors in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'' and ''Mario Super Sluggers'', and his brown color resembling fossilized dinosaur bones. Additionally, Dry Bowser's attacks now use a blue fire effect instead of the regular red fire of his default costume. | ||
