List of alternate colors
While not necessarily Spray Paint, the following is a list of other occurrences of major character color changes in the Kirby series:
Kirby's Adventure
When Kirby does not have a Copy Ability, he appears pink. When Kirby has a Copy Ability, he will usually appear a peach color. When Kirby has the Freeze or Ice Copy Ability, he appears white with blue feet.
Kirby's Dream Course
In 2-Player Mode, Player 1 plays as Pink Kirby, while Player 2 plays as a Yellow Kirby, dubbed Keeby.
Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra
Like Kirby's Adventure, Kirby's color sometimes changes based on what Copy Ability he has, although there is now greater variety.
- Red: Fire
- Yellow: Beam
- Green: Plasma
- Blue: Ice
- Purple: Ninja
- White: Mirror
- Brown: Stone
- Light Brown: Suplex

Kirby's Dream Land 3 and Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
Like Kirby's Adventure, Kirby's color changed to blue when possessing Ice, however, this only occurs when Kirby is actively using it and is without an Animal Friend or Power Combo.

Kirby
In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Green Kirby retains the Kusomochi Kirby appearance, and Gray Kirby appears with a white body, black feet, and gray eyes. In Super Smash Bros.

| This section contains content derived from Japanese | |
Color Change top screen in Kirby Mass Attack, displaying the Emerald Spray Paint color.
In Kirby Mass Attack, there is an unused element called Color Change, which would presumably change the color of the Kirbys; this may have gone unused due to Kirby's color change upon being damaged.[1][2] The possible colors were:
- Sapphire
- Ocean
- Chalk
- Light Pink
- Pink
- Red
- Orange
- Yellow
- Emerald
- Green
- Grape
- Shadow
- Chocolate
Kirby's Return to Dream Land
In multiplayer, Kirby's color is based on player. Unlike in Kirby Air Ride, multiple players cannot be Meta Knight, King Dedede, or Bandana Waddle Dee; as such, they are independent of player position and only use their default colors.
In gameplay, a player's color affects Pop Flowers, Ninja Dojo ninja stars, and Scope Shot reticles. In these instances, Meta Knight is considered purple, King Dedede is considered red, and Bandana Waddle Dee is considered orange.
Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Kirby Fighters Deluxe
In the Kirby Fighters sub-game or the downloadable Kirby Fighters Deluxe, in multiplayer/training mode, multiple colors are available to prevent confusion among players.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

- Red: Player 2
- Green: Player 3
- Yellow: Player 4
In artwork, there is an unused Blue Waddle Dee. It is possible this was going to be the color for a potential Player 5, but it went unused due to the lack of 5-player gameplay in the final release.
Kirby: Planet Robobot, Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, and Super Kirby Clash
In the Team Kirby Clash sub-game or the downloadable Team Kirby Clash Deluxe or Super Kirby Clash, Kirby's color is based on player.

Trivia
- One of the selectable colors in Kirby Mass Attack’s unused Color Change made him look like Batamon from Kirby's Dream Land 3.
- In Kirby: Squeak Squad, when Kirby has the Chalk Spray Paint on (which looks like his black-and-white coloration from early Game Boy games), the Copy Ability hats, objects he holds, and his attacks become the chalk color as well.
- When Kirby has the Shadow coloration on, he resembles Shadow Kirby. When he has Sapphire on, he resembles Meta Knight. The color of the damaged, blue Kirbys in Kirby Mass Attack also resembles the Ocean coloration.
