Design[]
Appearance[]
The Skeleto-Men are nearly identical with their only differences being a height difference and slightly differently colored heads. They have black bodies with raised white patterns that correspond with where their bones would be, similar to Megahertz. Additionally, they wear grey gloves and boots and have skeletal heads (Skeleto-Man No. 1's head is white while Skeleto-Man No. 2's is slightly tinted yellow).
History[]
Go! Godman[]
Godman vs. Skeleto-Man No. 1 and Skeleto-Man No. 2[]
The Skeleto-Men were the seventeenth and eighteenth monsters to fight Godman. Godman was called to fight Skeleto-Man No. 1 after it had attacked a young boy who was fishing. Godman arrived on the scene to combat the monster and they fought atop a hill until the monster teleported away to further harass the child. Godman chased after him and threw an explosive discus called the God-Circle at Skeleto-Man No. 1, but instead of hitting the monster, it was caught. The Skeleto-Man threw the object to the ground, which exploded and somehow spawned a second Skeleto-Man. Together, the monster duo fought Godman relentlessly until they were destroyed with Godman's flail, God-Crush.
Abilities[]
Teleportation[]
Both Skeleto-Men are shown to be capable of teleportation.
Darts[]
Skeleto-Man No. 1 is able to secrete and throw dart-like projectiles.
Trivia[]
- The head of one of the Skeleto-Men suits was later painted silver and reused for Jilarji's Showa suit.
