Goomba Troopas are a species inMonster Mix-Up. They are the result of mixing aGoomba and aKoopa Troopa, creating a single being that has the Koopa Troopa's head with the Goomba's body. AfterMario,Toad, and theMushroom King stumble across an army of mixedKoopa Troop enemies, a Goomba Troopa notices them and warns the leaders,Goomby and Foomby (who are also Goomba Troopas), about the heroes. Mario recognizes the leaders and promptly kidnaps them, although he accidentally kidnaps a pair ofGoombombs as well. As Goomba Troopas and Goombombs are identical to each other, Mario cannot tell which is which unless the reader solves a puzzle. By solving the puzzle correctly, Mario lets the Goombombs blow up and knocks out Goomby and Foomby, although the Mushroom King is then kidnapped by the rest of the army.
