The Clockwork Soldiers, also known as The Toy Platoon, are a trio of Portrait Ghosts that serve as minor antagonists in Luigi's Mansion. The three originally belonged to an unknown toy collector, but somehow they now march on their own without the need of winding.
Biography[]
The Clockwork Soldiers reside in the Clockwork Room located on the third floor of the mansion. When Luigi enters in the room, he will find the soldiers inactive. However, once Luigi starts the three clocks in the room, the soldiers reactivate and proceed to attack Luigi with their popping cork guns. The Clockwork Soldiers are fought similarly to Henry and Orville in the sense that Luigi must defeat them one at a time. To do so in their case, he must vacuum their wind-up keys with the Poltergust 3000, which exposes their hearts and allows Luigi to whittle down their stamina until he catches them. Afterwards, the playhouse's doors open, giving Luigi access to the Roof.
