Monster dolls[1] are enemies in Wario World. They are encountered in Mirror Mansion only. A small monster doll is a cat-like doll with a black hat and a blue shirt, while the large one is dog-like with overalls and brown shoes. They are functionally near-identical to Magons, and like a Magon, they have small and big variants, each of which can be clumsy or faster than normal. They have every ability that previous Magon variants have, including a tailspin attack capable of depleting one heart, and require three hits to defeat like the Snowmen in the Shivering Mountains do. They attack slightly faster than the Wolves in Beanstalk Way.
