@Random Talking Bush Oh huh, that's neat, didn't even notice that the Orange Bumper was retextured when Classic was added.
@samurai goroh: Yep, those have been added now.
@rty88: Funnily enough, no, because the sprites were actually updated before being implented, so those ones still ended up being unused after all.

There's new sprites (gray and red snail car with antlers) in v1.1.5
Well I guess the Orange Bumper isn't unused anymore, lmao.
this made me realize that i’ve been looking at these things the wrong way, because i used to think they had a little face on the front (the two turbines being the eyes)
@rty88: Ah, didn't know that!
@Random Talking Bush Actually, the pink and green ones are used. They're used in team races and are team-colored Lucky Bumpers (the normally blue colored Bumpers)
@rty88: Yeah, only the red, black (brightened to gray in-game) and blue Bumpers are used in-game. The regular-sized gold one isn't used due to the larger Gold Bumper taking its place, and the other three (orange, purple and green) are technically the three from the original F-Zero (their palettes are fairly different), all of those are unused.
Me in first, meters from the finish line dying because the game decided to spawn 10 bomb cars in front of me
@Random Talking Bush Oh, huh, that's a weird way of going about things
Also, are the orange Bumpers unused?

@rty88: All of the vehicles are like that, not just the Bumper (most noticeably with the Golden Fox's default colour) -- the brightness for everything is adjusted in-game to give them their proper appearance.
How come the Gray Bumper looks a lot darker than it does in game?
Imagine you are well in the lead, low on power and about to cross the finish line in the final lap.
And then... Tragedy strikes. Three bomb bumpers spawn within your vicinity.

The turning sprites look kinda strange and unfinished. I believe they might have scrapped it early.
All turn animations are unused, huh?
...Nintendo, you aren't planning on making a Fifth machine called the "Bumper Snail" playable, are you?

@Qw2: Or a bumper knocks you out of the stage when both you and the bumper were sent flying (this did happen to me today, in fact). In any case, I grew a certain hate towards them. ^^
