Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: When Mario, Luigi, Bunsun and Dr. Nerdnik are about to be crushed by the electric pole, when Luigi moans "we're doomed," he is in front of Mario. In the next shot, Mario is looking ahead while saying "doomed, schmoomed." In this same shot, Mario pulls Luigi over to a nearby fire hydrant, and Luigi moves onscreen from Mario's right. Therefore, Luigi has changed position. (00:07:10)

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: As the fight between Koopa and the Plumbinator begins, in one shot the camera zooms in to Koopa while under the Plumbinator's legs. Robo Koopa's color is light blue in this shot, when it is dark blue in the rest of the episode. (00:10:15)

Also, the color of the bombs keep changing from black to red. (00:10:20)

Show generally

Question: Why was Toad's color palette sometimes way different, primarily in the first couple of episodes? Why didn't they bother changing this with the final results? It's relatively inconsistent on what palette is used in each episode, despite the fact the more recognizable of the two (white mushroom with red spots along with a variety of coloring in clothes) is shown much more often than the other (red mushroom with white spots along with the majority of his clothes being red and white).
