For this weeks retro feature at Super Luigi Bros we've compiled a collection of quotes from the most wretched reptile of them all, King Koopa. These ten quotes best show the personality of the loveable rogue that was the Super Mario Bros. Super Shows antagonist. King Koopa is voiced by Harvey Atkin in these quotes.

The Ten Koopmandments
Although DiC got a lot wrong in terms of the transfer of characters personalities, traits and abilities from the gaming series to the cartoons many people are actually very fond of the character that they made King Koopa into he certainly has a lot more personality than his alter ego "Bowser" from the games; although Bowser is certainly the more ferocious of the two, King Koopa can't even spit fireballs!
There were over 50 episodes of the Super Mario Bros Super Show, and of course we couldn't put all of the quotes in our top 10, what other great quotes that we haven't included in our video can you remember from KK?
