Montys,[1] also referred to as Rocky Wrenches,[2] are enemies that appear in Super Mario Galaxy in Battlerock Galaxy, Gusty Garden Galaxy, and Dreadnought Galaxy. They are moles that wear blue, striped bandanas and wield wrenches as their method of attack, making them analogous to the original Rocky Wrenches and, by extension, Monty Moles.
Montys attack by throwing wrenches at Mario or Luigi, like Rocky Wrenches from other Super Mario titles. They retreat into their bunker if the player approaches them, re-emerging as the player moves away. When a Monty is at the surface, the player can either shoot a Star Bit at it or perform a Ground Pound nearby to flip the Monty upside-down, making it susceptible to any attack, such as stomping or spinning.
The internal file name for the wrench Montys throw is "MoguStone," suggesting that they may have originally been intended to throw rocks, similarly to the Monty Moles in Super Mario 64.[3]
