Upon activation, the Blue Falcon will fly by quickly in front of Captain Falcon. If any opponents are hit by the Blue Falcon, they are launched onto the [[Mute City]] race track.

Captain Falcon GX-AX Icon Pilot Quotes Machine Blue Falcon GX-AX Icon


Captain Falcon races in an F-Zero machine named the Blue Falcon. It is also his Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

This racer is one of the most well-rounded vehicles on the racing tour. The Blue Falcon's machine number was originally 111,[1] but in F-Zero X, the number had changed to 7 (no explanation for this was ever given) and 07 in F-Zero GX. It might be of worthy note that "111" is binary for 7. During an interview with Mr. Zero, the race announcer, in F-Zero GX Captain Falcon commented that if he wins the Grand Prix, he will use the prize money to build a new machine called the "Neo Blue Falcon".[2] Thanks to the efforts of its pilot, even a novice could perform well in this vehicle. With a well-defended body, average boost power, and good grip, the Blue Falcon is well-balanced and impeccably tuned. Captain Falcon knows every inch of his machine and can make it perform as though it has the best ratings.[3] The Blue Falcon appears as an unlockable lightweight kart in Mario Kart Wii, which, despite its performance in F-Zero, is heavily oriented towards speed with bad stats otherwise.

Captain Falcon has another vehicle, called the Falcon Flyer. This is a speedy, mid-sized star cruiser boasting an on-board computer. The onboard computer means that the ship can be controlled remotely. The Falcon Flyer is mainly used to prowl the galaxy in search of criminals. In the anime, F-Zero Falcon Densetsu the Blue Falcon has only one thruster instead of four. Also in F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, a second version of the Blue Falcon is unlockable, it is known as Falcon MK-2, piloted by Kent Akechi, who claims to be the son of Captain Falcon. [4]

In terms of its stats, the Blue Falcon's stat distribution is similar to that of the Soda Jet Kart body from Mario Kart 7; it boosts speed and acceleration, at the cost of some weight and traction.
