'''The Goomba Bros.''' are a group of five [[Goomba]]s encountered in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They are the first opponents [[Mario]] challenges in [[Glitz Pit]], where they are known as "The Meteorite Hardheads." They are the only team in the Glitz Pit to consist of five members.

Like most other fighters, they brag about how good they are and talk trash. However, they are simply Goombas and the weakest enemies in the Glitz Pit. The Goomba Bros. prove to be cheaters, taking a swing at Mario before the fight even begins, resulting in an unavoidable [[First Strike]] at Mario even if the [[Chill Out (badge)|Chill Out]] badge is equipped. The Goomba Bros. then say it was a warm up for Mario and that he should be thanking them.

The Goomba Bros. are ranked 19th in the Glitz Pit but will be ranked 20th when [[Mario]] (known as The Great Gonzales) defeats them.

*In the original GameCube version, [[Grubba]] initially introduces the team as "the Hoppin' Hardheads". This is seemingly a mistake, as in the Nintendo Switch version, he always introduces them as "the Meteorite Hardheads".
