Octoboos[1] are enemies in Super Mario Galaxy 2. They are encountered in Haunty Halls Galaxy, Boo Moon Galaxy, and Flash Black Galaxy as regular enemies. They are Boos shaped like Octoombas, and Octoboos move around primarily by floating in a set area. Octoboos cannot be defeated, but they become transparent when the player uses a spin near them or from Yoshi's tongue. Octoboos also make small Octoomba sounds if Mario or Luigi is close to them. Unlike most members of the Octoomba family, they do not spit rocks.
