The eyes are a small 4 X 3 White Rectangle behind a sprite with transparency.

It's like how the black of Bowser's Wrist Bracers and the eyes of Peach and Toad are all Transparent, but they show black in the background.

So are the missing prototype frames used in the final version?

@CosmicMan08: Because this sheet doesn't pair every single possible palette (and then some) with every single sprite. Quality > quantity.

I would leave it like it is, all rips in this section & for this game in general are top notch (maybe except the health bar, it's barely enough to warrant an own sheet).

Thinking about trimming the top half of this sheet off and moving the unused sprites to a different section. No reason to have it cluttering up the playable section. Thoughts?

@pacmastermeow Layering. I've incorrectly assumed that Peach's head uses a separate palette, but she uses layering just like the Marios.

@pac Eyes are a separate graphic, pretty sure.

How do these guys have 4 colors in their sprites and transparency? That's illegal!
