The Spotmen, also known as Madaramen, are androids clad in camo jumpsuits that served as the footsoldiers of the Dark Science Empire Deathdark and recurring antagonists in Dai Sentai Goggle V. There also exists a special shinobi class of Spotmen called "Spotmen Ninjas".
Biographies[]
Past[]
When Dr. Hideki Hongo discovered evidence of Deathdark's existence while investigating the abandoned Wolfburg Castle in Germany, a squad of Spotmen were sent to eliminate him. He was saved by Kenichi Akama, who would go on to be Goggle Red of the new team Hongo formed to fight against Deathdark, Goggle V.
Google V[]
The Future Science Foundation develops over twenty years until Hongou himself is targeted by Deathdark, forcing the activation of Goggle V in order to bring them down. The Deathdark first attack using Seashell Mozoo and some Spotmen but all are defeated so they revive him to pilot Fan Kong only for him to die and the first attack to fail. Afterwords, General Deathgiller takes command whilst he the other Deathdark executives oversee the plans of Deathdark and their attacks involving Synthetic Beasts and many more Spotmen.
Tanuki Mozoo later recruits five Spotmen ninjas and turns them into evil counterparts of Google V; the Deathdark-V only for them to be killed by the real Google V. Dozens of Spotmen participate in the final battle between General Deathmark and the Google V but are all swiftly killed along with many more inside Deathtopia when Google V storm the base to kill Führer Taboo. Any last remaining Spotmen are likely annihilated when Google Tank destroys Deathtopia with its missiles to prevent the use of the Hightron Dark Hole device.
Gokaiger[]
Several Spotmen are part of an army of past enemy grunts fought by the Gokaigers in Los Dark's ghost dimension which houses the 1500 spirits of the villains defeated by the Super Sentai. After losing some of their number in an initial skirmish, the remaining members from each grunt group merged to form the Combined Combatant. Though the stronger opponent, the Combined Combatant proves to be unstable due to internal conflicting among the grunts composing him over who got to finish the pirates off. Taking advantage, the Gokaigers use the Battle Fever J Ranger Keys to destroy the Combined Combatant with the Penta Force cannon.
Appearance[]
Spotmen wear body-covering camo jumpsuits and brown face covers resembling hockey masks. They also wear belts emblazoned with the golden eye logo of Deathdark.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Skilled Fighters: The Spotmen were skilled fighters who could match the Google V in battle on several occasions.
