Indiana Jones doesn't belong to Disney does it?
Anyways I was going to say this a lot earlier but I think Pittoo could be a potentially creative character if Sakurai's team decided to go against the expectations and make him an extreme none-clone of Pit. The whole gimmick of Kid Icarus Uprising is the gigantic roster of weaponry available, right? What if they focus on making his moveset based completely on the weapons that Pit is not already bringing with him to Smash?

Disney owns production and distribution rights to future Indiana Jones films, as well as trademark of the intellectual property itself. Paramount owns partial distribution rights for the first four movies, but no intellectual property.
I'm pretty sure Dark Pit (although I wish he was going by Pittoo) will be a close clone, considering his placement with the other near-clones on the CSS.

He's on a corner of basically direct clones. (In which Toon Link isn't)
Methinks he'll have the same weapons as pit, but could be wrong
Edit: Oh, Kriven said the same thing, oops

Maybe his basic attacks remain the same but he has unique specials then?
Also an observation: http://i.imgur.com/kY2BoWg.jpg
Larry here is riding a Koopa Car as well, and if you look closely it appears that the rim and propeller are blue instead of green.
I think this confirms what was said earlier in the original ESRB leak, that the Koopalings are going to be alternate costumes for Junior; Larry here being the "Blue" skin. I think perhaps Junior isn't going to have any true color alts and instead each of his colors is another Koopaling.

I hope so because I want to beat people up with Iggy
But it could also be just a trophy

Also keep in mind that there hasn't been any game with Iggy or any of the other Koopaling in a Koopa Clown Car as far as I know, so I'd say that pretty much confirms it.

The only thing that bothers me is that the trophy is gotten like any other trophy. I mean, aren't character trophies and the such awarded for beating game modes, and not given to you like other trophies?
I mean, maybe each Koopa Kid has their own trophy and it's to keep you from having to clear the modes eight times in a row, but idunno.
Also, I think they used a Koopa Car in one of the new Mario Bros atleast once

It wouldn't be the case here because he is an alternate skin of a character. Beating Classic Mode with this skin would just result in you getting the Junior trophy.
Also I've played all the new Marios and I don't recall them ever using the Koopa Car except as a group, and they certainly have never had their own personal color-matching ones.

Except we don't know that for sure. It's not like we've ever had an instance like this. I mean, I could see it happening, but there were times to where trophies with alternate colours could be unlocked via completed All-Star mode

It always bothered me that I didn't get a Plumber Wario trophy for completing Classic Mode with the plumber costume...
However, we do know how it worked with characters who could transform. At least in Brawl, you were not awarded the Sheik trophy unless Sheik landed the finishing blow to Master Hand. This is true of Zelda, Squirtly, Ivysaur, and Charizard as well. I don't know why literally different characters should be a different situation.

Because in Brawl those transformations were treated as separate characters because ... well they were different characters. We're just talking about a skin change, the equivalent of a color swap or Pikachu's hats. Do you really think they'd make you play Classic Mode eight times with the same character to unlock a trophy for each skin?

Hey, it wouldn't be impossible.
Leave me alone, I just wanted Bowser Jr to have actual recolors

You're confusing "character" with "playstyle". Trophies are all about characters, not playstyles.

I'm not really sure what you mean by that but I don't think you really understood what I meant either ...
I'm just going to leave this alone for now and we'll see what happens when the game comes out.

Sheik and Zelda are two different characters and therefor get two different trophies. Plumber Wario and Biker Wario are the same character and don't get different trophies. How is that hard to understand?
