Munchelangelos are mouse enemies who appear in the S.S. Caviar in Wario: Master of Disguise. They are normally found walking around an area and are harmless when passed by quickly. However, if Wario stays close to one for too long, it will attack by jump-charging in an attempt to bite him. They can be defeated with any attack. Along with their variants in the game, they can occasionally be seen lifting their heads up, allowing a pair of eyes to peek out, suggesting they are actually a smaller creature in a costume. Six of them appear in the game. Munchelangelos have three variants: Mini Munchelangelo, which is smaller than normal Munchelangelos, DaVincheese, which is gold with orange pants, similar to Sir Worth-A-Lots, and Ratfael, which is orange with purple pants, and more aggressive.
In-game description[edit]
This happy little mouse has been living high on the hog on a luxury liner. Too much time at the buffet has engorged his belly to epic proportions.
Naming[edit]
"Munchelangelo" is a portmanteau of "munch", relating to their behavior, and Michelangelo, a famous Italian Renaissance artist.
