Team Min Min.

Although, I wouldn't be surprised if they do a Bowser Jr. kind of thing where alternate outfits are different fighters.

@JWeinCom I really like that idea. Hope they go with it.

That's nice. An ARMS character would fit rather well. My guess is that it'll be Ninjara.

I can see this maybe being 4 characters with 2 colour variations each.

I reckon it will be Ribbon Girl, don't know why but she's the first one that comes to mind for me even over Springman.

This makes me so happy. ARMS is severely slept on ever since it launched and I feel it doesn't get the recognition it deserves, so i'm glad it's getting this at least since it deserves a spot.

Just my personal preference really.

Yeah. They'd just have to change some of his animations a bit. I'd much rather it not be Spring Man though.

The assist trophy makes Spring Man unlikely, but I wouldn't say it eliminates him completely. They could for instance just patch Spring Man to Springtron. Or, they could do something similar to what they did for Toon Link in the Spirit Track stage, where if Spring Man is actually in the fight, another character will show up as the assist instead.
