The Koopalings, known in Japan as the Team of 7 Bowsers , also known as Bowser's Minions in some British English localizations, and occasionally known as the Koopa Kids in the DIC Entertainment cartoons, are a group of characters in Nintendo's Mario franchise, consisting of seven siblings: Larry Koopa, Morton Koopa Jr., Wendy O. Koopa, Iggy Koopa, Roy Koopa, Lemmy Koopa, and Ludwig von Koopa. They made their debut in Super Mario Bros. 3 for the NES in 1988, in which they were presented as enemies serving under the series' primary antagonist, Bowser. The Koopalings have continued to appear in later Mario games and related media.
