Skull Hammer - Side Special Idea (Boomerang Confirmed)

[Tepig2000]

I don't hate Toon Link's moveset, I'm okay with him being a semi-clone because it makes sense. But, if Sakurai wanted to make Link and Toon Link more distinct from eachother than in Brawl, he could give Toon Link a new Side Special. And I think the Skull Hammer would be a good choice. I imagine it just like Dedede's forward smash, but faster and weaker, and if you hold the special button, you can walk around charging it, then release when you want. What do you think of it?

EDIT: The Boomerang has been confirmed as Toon Link's Side Special.

Skull Hammer should be his Forward Smash, not his Side Special.

Skull Hammer should be his Forward Smash, not his Side Special.

But his forward smash is confirmed to return from Brawl.

After Project M, I don't even think that I will play Toon Link in Smash 4 to be perfectly honest.

But his almighty boomerang! :'(

Especially if Link keeps the Gale Boomerang. One Link needs to have a functional boomerang!

I would not mind the Skull Hammer being a down-smash or something.

I think Link should have the regular Boomerang, and Toon Link the Skull Hammer.

Well, it's true that we haven't seen any of the 2 side specials so who knows.

I would love more WW (or Toon games in general) item representation. Toon Link has tons of moveset potential, but Sakurai has plenty of reason to keep him a semi-clone, I suppose.

Still, Skull Hammer, Gust Jar, Snake Whip, Fairy Hammer...all wonderfully unique items.

That would be creative but just IMO, you can't just get rid of the arrows the bombs, clawshot and boomerang. His A moves can be a little different though. =]

Well we've seen link's gale boomerang now

Well we've seen link's gale boomerang now

Still, now they're even more different than before (not as we expected but it's fine too) with Link's new U-Air, dash attack and roll. And that's only what we know.

At least we've not seen Toon Link's side special.

I'm okay with this. Looks like his side special is still the Boomergang, and I'm fine with it. But I'm not sure if other people are...
