When doing this , I had a general idea of of colors for BC, here:  I went with blue trunks, lighter than what I did with Birdy's, and while I kept the gloves dark green, I added bits of peacock green to add a little emphasis of strength and heaviness behind his punches. 
For the hair, I went with dark and sienna browns- I liked how the detailing came out. His eyes, I went with black, since there was little to suggest other colors, from the bits I saw. Though I could be mistaken..

The boots and socks gave me a little trouble- I wanted to go with somethign that would allude a bit to the other Macs, but stand out a bit, as well.  So I thought it over for a while and wen with blue, for the socks, then white with black for the boots: I remembered something  with the NES version, and decide to do a light spin on that ( bit of a clue, really, though it's easy to overlook XD ).

Overall, this was an interesting project to work on, trying to piece together something that saw little exposure before being obscured in the dust of time and development, if I may say so.  

On a side note, I doubt it would happen, but it would be nice if they did this guy as an alternate costume/ pallet swap for Little Mac for the new SSB game. But that's likely just me...

I hope they do this for the updated version of Super Smash Brothers Ultimate! 🥺

I doubt it- that would require  putting in a new model.  

Personally, I'd like to see them do a continuation of punch out.

Thank you.

Took a bit of work to piece together the design and then figure out a few of the colors.

A pity they removed this version and put in the 'Birdy' design. I could see this guy giving Mac an even fight- maybe even more so.

I just realized something a few months ago-  this guy bore a striking resemblance to another character- 

Meisuke Nueno  (Hell Teacher Nube) -  kamikazefansub.net/galerias/an…

Looking back on that, HTN came out a year before SPO, and maybe it's just me, but I"m thinking the Beta Challenger's design looked very much like this guy- so maybe that's why the final design looked more... goofy.

Strange coincidence, no?

I found it on youtube. Pretty good comedy, the monsters can be scary, though  I'm a bit surprised at some of the humor they do... with a grade school class...

Still, I'm a bit surpirsed- the Beta Challenger looks almost like Nube's  long-lost brother, or something.

Yeah, it could be pretty scary.

No kidding.

The OVAs, too. THey were pretty dark and scary.

And that's what had me thinking- the designs looked too similar. Kind of a shame, though. I personally liked that one better than the 'Birdy' design they used in the final version.
