Goombots differ from Goombas in other ways than the fact that they wear protective helmets on top of their heads.

Most Goombas also have a set of pointed fangs in their mouths but since the mouths of these Goombas are impossible to see due to the darkness, it is only assumed that they do not have those trademark fangs.
