In #MarioKartTour, there are special items for certain drivers.
This big ol' shell will crash any kart it hits and keep on going. In tightly-packed races, this powerful item can take out multiple racers in a single throw! #MarioKartTour pic.twitter.com/1w1yrfr9gM
Nintendo has been using the official Mario Kart Tour Twitter account to show off some of the items in the game. So far, they've been showing off the various Shells you can pick up. You can see the Bowser Shell above, as well as the Spiny Shell, Red Shell, and Blue Shell below.

Chases down the kart in 1st place, crashing through anyone it hits before reaching its target. With this item around, even racers at the front of the pack aren't safe! #MarioKartTour pic.twitter.com/6lMhCylYnh

Hones in automatically on a kart in front of you and crashes whatever it hits. This item is great for catching up to or overtaking an opponent. On the other hand, it sure can be scary when you're the one in the crosshairs! #MarioKartTour pic.twitter.com/gnQKJwC4gg
Item introduction: Green Shell

Flies straight and crashes any kart it hits. Will bounce backwards if it hits a wall, so keep an eye out! #MarioKartTour pic.twitter.com/q8xvF8m7LW
