What NPC would you replace with a Starman?

Title. I would replace the SMW Blue Beach Koopa in the secret menu.

Player Fireball.

One of the four different SMB2 mushrooms.
It can be anything, right?

Depends on the level. Probably one of the Zelda or Metroid enemies, unless it was a Zelda or Metroid level.

Probably a red coin or mushroom block.

The swap mushroom.

Here's another idea, how about a heavy block or friendly NPC?
You could also have it replace the Zelda Heart Piece - I think it would be fair if Link gets a Starman instead of a heart when a Yoshi Egg or Kuribo Shoe hatches.

One of the secret NPCs.

Or just have it programmed in lua altogether.

The sonic ring, as of now there is ABSOULTLY no way to use it without clash.
I mean, it's the ONLY sonic thing in the whole game!
It doesn't look good with anything!

Does that include the brown SMB3 paragoomba too?

I don't really mind that it has to be done that way, though. It's pretty improbable that you'd ever need all of the different paratroopa types in a single level.

It can be probably one of the NPCs that aren't usually implemented in SMBX... (293 to 300).

The more this community says clash the faster it dies.

But... Hm... I MIGHT just be able to make it any NPC.... It's a little more complex...
Actually I take that back, keep speculating. Just no promises from me yet. I think it's possible.

Is that because of the AI? It's really easy to make a starman AI, just do
NPC.speedX=NPC.direction*whatever speed you want
and
if NPC.touchingBlockBottom(I forget how that is typed exactly) then NPC.speedY=-the amount you want it to jump end
So if you are able to set it to any NPC, then one of the dummy NPCs.
