*In the Volume 134 of ''Nintendo Power'', there is a pre-release screenshot of ''Banjo-Tooie'' in which Humba Wumba is wearing a red dress. A [[Mumbo Token]] symbol is found at the bottom-right of the same picture, suggesting that, Humba Wumba would have originally accepted Mumbo Tokens instead of Glowbos. Additionally, the same picture can be seen in the [[Workers' Quarters]] of [[Grunty Industries]] but without the Mumbo Token or dialogue icon. | |||
