Armie
Armie
Armie the Armadillo is easily overwhelmed. He can turn any tiny thought into a gigantic worry, and he often needs the support of his friends to help him calm down. When Armie’s overactive brain isn’t busy worrying, though, it can be a total marvel. He uses his vivid imagination to write stories, invent things, and help his friends solve their problems in quirkily original ways.
Tell Me More
Armie always has his snout in a book.
It's a life-long love affair with words. So far, he's ventured down the rabbit hole with Alice, he's memorized a recipe for Massaman Curry, and he's studied 101 Swahili Verbs. Next, he intends to go where the wild things are, find out how to make friends and influence people, and read The Complete Beginner's Guide to Coding. So much to read and so little time!
Armie has a powerful imagination.
Sometimes he tests it to see how far it can go. He tried to imagine a world where everything and everyone is an armadillo... Easy. He tried to imagine a watermelon-juggling goat wearing a tutu on a unicycle... Piece of cake. Then he tried to imagine a world without books... Actually, it turns out that one is unimaginable!
Armie is a perfectionist.
He won't stop until everything is just right, even if it takes 467 attempts.
He really feels stuff, y'know?
He bawled during the Lion King. And that moment in Titanic, when Rose lets go of Jack? Devastating. He cried himself to sleep for a week. Poor old Armie! He's a sensitive soul.
Armie is an inventor at heart.
Ever since sliced bread, Armie has been looking for the next best thing. Today, he's wondering if a make-shift helicopter helmet might answer all of Earth's window-cleaning needs. He's not in it for the money or the fame - he just likes solving problems.
Bearnice
Bearnice
Bearnice the bear is big and bubbly. She has a huge heart, huge emotions, and huge energy, and she loves her friends so much that it sometimes frightens them. Although Bearnice can be a lot to handle, her friends appreciate that she’ll always be there for them – and besides, she’s hilariously fun to watch.
Tell Me More
She has an enormous heart.
When Plato got upset because his soufflé didn't rise, Bearnice was ready with a blanket and a smile, like she always is. She's everybody's shoulder to cry on. Occasionally, though, she can get a little carried away. Not everyone responds well to being showered with hugs... and compliments... and glitter... and out-of-tune, improvised songs.
Bearnice can be a little... impulsive
It seemed like such a good idea at first. Why do bad things happen to good bears???
Bearnice has amazing hair and she knows it.
It's big. It's bold. It's bouncy. There's just one rule... Do not touch it.
Bearnice is very clumsy.
Oops! She's done it again. When Bearnice is around, things get smashed or spilled or flipped upside-down alarmingly often. She's aware of the issue and she's working on it.
She is the cuddliest snuggliest cuddler that you ever did hug.
According to Bearnice, there's no problem that can't be solved with a cuddle... Of course, whoever she happens to be cuddling doesn't always agree with that. She knows she's supposed to ask if it's okay first and, to be fair to her, she does usually remember to do that. Usually.
Bogart
Bogart
Bogart the worm is bad news. He's constantly making trouble and trying to wriggle his way out of it! Bogart might seem charming and funny at first, but those who know him aren't fooled – he's actually totally sneaky and totally gross, a crafty prankster on a mission to create chaos wherever he goes. But while Bogart loves to dish it out, he can't always take it when the joke is on him.
Tell Me More
Bogart is a little maggot with a huge ego.
Most of the time, Bogart has just one thing on his mind: Bogart. He comes first, and everyone else can fight over the scraps. "Next time, more pepperoni," he burped, ignoring the growl of Oz's empty stomach.
Bogart’s always scheming.
A pirate hat has never suited anyone better… and this is the kind of pirate who'd make his crew walk the plank just for fun. There's no straight line to buried treasure when you're with Bogart. Help him navigate and he'll thank you by leaving you marooned and making off with the loot alone.
Bogart loves a good prank.
Revenge is a burger best served cold. Last time Bearnice went for fast food, she brought NOTHING back for Bogart. So he decided to teach her a lesson. Most maggots wouldn't hide in a burger box for four whole hours for the sake of a prank, but Bogart isn't most maggots.
No one ever knows where Bogart will pop up next.
Bogart is in his element sandwiched between two stinking, greasy sardines.
Bogart has a different point of view.
Most people see a stinky landfill. Bogart sees a dreamy buffet. He loves mud, slime, poo, sludge... anything that oozes, really.
brick
brick
Brick the hippo is serious about sports. Competitive and athletic, he's the happiest and most confident when there's physical activity involved – but this confidence evaporates when he has to rely upon words alone. Brick is sweet, sincere, naively trusting and oblivious to sarcasm. He struggles when things aren't as simple as good versus bad or winning versus losing, and finds himself the victim of Bogart's devious pranks.
Tell Me More
Brick loves all things fitness.
Brick is good at any sport he puts his hoof to, from those requiring brute force and speed to ones requiring balance and grace. The day he discovered ribbon dancing was one of his happiest, and the judges agreed. 10/10.
Brick is proud.
He loves a ribbon, a trophy, a prize, a badge, and he shows them off enthusiastically! Brick found these bottle caps in the trash and attached them to his sash to represent every single one of his greatest accomplishments.
Brick is a trusting hippo.
This makes him a great cheerleader, but sometimes it also makes him a bit of a chump. As he fell toward Armie, he had no doubt that his friend would catch him... and bore no hard feelings when he really, really didn't.
Brick works hard.
It took Brick years to put together a Rubik's cube, but the hard work only made his victory sweeter. Brick is most comfortable in the realm of the physical, but applies the same work ethic to matters of the mind that come less easily to him.
Brick would never hurt a fly.
Not only would Brick never hurt a fly, he also feels a deep appreciation for all living things. He might look tough, but he's an emotional hippo with a poetic heart. He may not always have all the words to express the beauty he sees, but that doesn't stop him from trying. His Ode to a Spider moved his friend Bearnice to tears.
grit
grit
Grit the dog is a bit of a grump. He loves to be left well alone, and wants little more from life than the perfect snooze. But no matter how much he snaps and growls, Grit's friends seem determined to make him open up and get in touch with his emotions. And no matter how hard he tries to avoid it, he often seems to find himself caught up in his friends' zany adventures.
Tell Me More
Grit loves to dig.
He believes that if you dig for long enough you are guaranteed to find something good. Good things that he's found in the past include: a dinosaur bone, a jigsaw piece with Beyoncé's face on it, and a perfectly preserved bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich.
Grit is a very hungry boy.
Is that a juicy burger patty calling out for two sesame brioche buns, a pickle, and some tomato ketchup? Or has Grit just not eaten in seven minutes?
Grit is very, very stubborn.
If you want Grit to do something, do not under any circumstances tell him. He doesn't react well to being ordered around. You'll have better luck if you find a way to make him think it was his idea. Brick clearly hasn't figured that out yet.
Grit's a bit of a grump.
He needs a bit more space than the rest of us. Get too close and he may yell "What you lookin' at?" or "Get lost!" or "Zip it, will ya?". And he won't just yell it, he'll spit it. Poor Plato, he'd just been breathing loudly.
Underneath his gruff exterior, Grit is a sensitive pup.
While he may seem like Misanthrope of the Year 2022, Grit is in fact a softie. When he cares, he really really cares and he's been known to shed a tear when the brutality of nature all gets a bit too much.
oz
oz
Oz the ostrich is her own biggest fan. Every day she wakes up and asks herself, "How can I make today all about me?" Oz thinks her friends should feel lucky to know someone as smart, talented, and important as she is – so when she does find the time to play with them, she has to be in charge.
Tell Me More
Oz is resourceful.
She makes things happen. When the teddy bears at Teddy Bears R Us weren't up to her standards, Oz used a 3D printer to make her own gorgeous, cuddly, stuffed friends.
Oz is very interested in Oz.
Self-obsessed, moi? Oz sees herself as something of an artiste and makes artwork exclusively of herself. Last month, she completed a photo-realistic self-portrait to hang on the wall above her bed. This month, she has moved on to sculpting life-sized stone busts. She's calling this particular piece Perfection.
She likes to do things with a bit of flair.
Oz doesn't simply ride a bike. She dons a blue lycra body suit and soars through a flaming hoop without any hands on the handlebars. It's called pizzazz. Try it some time.
How can we put this nicely? Oz is, well, a know-it-all.
"Pick me! Pick me! Me! Pick me! I know! Try me!" It can be hard to get a word in edgeways when Oz is around. Sometimes she puts her hand up before anyone has even asked a question.
Oz has big dreams.
She wants to prove to the world that one ostrich can win Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Director, Best Costume Design, and Best Original Song, all in one year and all for the same movie.
plato
plato
Plato the platypus is passionate about food. He’s got big emotions and an even bigger appetite, and he’s on a lifelong quest to taste all the delights that the world has to offer. Nothing brings Plato more joy than cooking and eating with his friends, but watch out – sometimes his passionate, direct personality can get as spicy as his famous habanero sauce.
Tell Me More
Plato cooks with feeling.
He's got a recipe for everything. When Armie's rocket failed to launch (again), Plato knew exactly what to do. The crunch of a tortilla, a dash of lime, a sprinkle of spice. It's time for tacos.
When Plato's happy, he's euphoric. When Plato's angry, he's livid.
Plato and Gordon Ramsey have more in common than you might expect. They're both chefs, they're both Scorpios, and they're both furious. If you see smoke billowing from Plato's ears, back away before he throws a papaya at you. He'll be back to normal in an hour, and if you're lucky you might get a slice of his apology papaya pie.
Plato believes in quality AND quantity.
Why have one doughnut when you could have fifty-six French, artisanal cronuts (a croissant-doughnut hybrid)? Actually, make that fifty-seven.
Plato will eat ANYTHING.
Ever since having a dream about a banquet of delectable hats and gloves, Plato's cooking has blurred the lines between the edible and the inedible. His lampshade soup is famous in Switzerland. His dictionary dessert has won awards in Egypt. And his leek railway is the tastiest way to travel around Japan.
Plato's a free spirit.
He's passionate, messy, spontaneous, and doesn't care what anyone thinks of him. He's the first to jump into a freezing cold lake and the last to put his clothes back on afterwards. Plato wants to experience 110% of everything life has to offer... he just sometimes needs a reminder to put his clothes on first.
roxy
roxy
Roxy the fox has a toothy zest for life. Whether campaigning for a cause, working on an ambitious art project, or helping a friend in need, Roxy jumps in without hesitation. "Do first and apologize later" is a motto that serves her well. But it's not just about adventurous thrills: Roxy has a heart, and she's brave enough to use it.
Tell Me More
Roxy is an artist.
As she twirls on her snazzy roller blades and adds the last bright flourish, Roxy turns a blank wall into a bold statement. She's never been one to color inside the lines.
Roxy stands up for what she believes in.
When Roxy learned about climate change, she created a sand sculpture garden on the beach to raise awareness. And when the tide washed it all away, she rolled up her sleeves and started again from scratch.
Roxy can be a show-off.
Roxy is a lot of fun, but she has a tendency for one-upmanship. Oh, you can ride your scooter across a tightrope? Well, Roxy will waste no time in telling you she can do the same thing. Backwards. While eating pizza.
Roxy is visionary.
When she skated past the broken toilet and abandoned stack of old tires, inspiration struck like lightning. What was once a smelly eyesore is now a beautiful garden because Roxy saw treasure where someone else saw only trash.
Roxy is unflappable.
Zip lining across a canyon? Yes please. 500 people watching? Fine by me. A giant disembodied octopus tentacle? High five!
stax
stax
Stax the giraffe has his head in the clouds. In fact, it sometimes seems like he's from another planet entirely. But whatever Stax lacks in common sense, he more than makes up for in creativity. He expresses himself best through music and art, inspiring his friends to open their minds and dance to their own beat.
Tell Me More
Stax is a dreamer.
With an imagination that intergalactic, Stax is pretty much permanently daydreaming. He never gets bored – the universe is just too weird and wonderful. He might be wondering whether aliens eat three meals a day, or whether you can tell what someone had for breakfast by looking at the color of their socks, or if cacti ever feel sad because nobody wants to give them a hug.
Stax gets into a few pickles.
Having your head perpetually in the clouds can be a real hazard. Like the time Stax went to school and accidentally got hung up like a jacket. And that wasn't even the first time that had happened!
Stax will do anything for his friends.
He stands by his friends. And above them if necessary, to protect them from the rain.
Stax dresses for himself, not the occasion.
He might be dressed like Elvis because he's going to a party, or he might just be tidying his room. Wherever you catch him, Stax is perpetually the bringer of good vibes.
Stax is always late.
Everybody has that one friend for whom punctuality is as elusive as the Loch Ness Monster. He always gets there in the end, it just might not be the right hour, day, or even week...
wolfgang
wolfgang
Wolfgang the wolf is a thrill-seeker. He loves performing parkour stunts and scooter tricks, and is not afraid to stand up for what he believes in. He's fiercely loyal to his pack but can sometimes be a bit of a lone wolf. This free spirit comes with a dash of melodrama, and he's often spotted howling at the moon.
Tell Me More
Parkour is Wolfgang's middle name.
His dream is to run, climb, swing, jump, vault, and roll all over the world. He's climbed the Eiffel Tower. He's tightrope-walked across the Grand Canyon. And he's jumped out of a hot air balloon without a parachute. Granted, it was still on the ground, but he managed to make it look cool.
Wolfgang does things his own way.
Look, he knows he could just use his phone torch... but where's the fun in that? Secret caves are best explored the old-fashioned way – with a sense of adventure, a touch of danger, and a whole lot of fire hazards.
Wolfgang shares his life with the world.
Whatever he's up to, you can guarantee he's posted about it on Instagram. Performing an epic scooter trick? Posted. Spray-painting a mural of a bike helmet? Posted. Out for an afternoon stroll? Posted. #wolflife #sprayitdontsayit #hashtag
Wolfgang is a rebel with a cause.
Shortly after he spotted plastic bottles pilling up on the sidewalk, "LEGENDS DON'T LITTER" was found graffitied all over the city. These events might be related, but legally, we can't comment.
Wolfgang is a sentimental creature.
When he finished his first can of spray paint, Wolfgang kept it as a souvenir of his new hobby. When he finished his second can of spray paint, he decided it was best to hold onto that one too. 7,268 cans later, he finds himself muttering, "One more can't hurt..."
Yin & Yang
Yin & Yang
Yin and Yang the tiger twins couldn't be less alike, and their differences don't stop at their hair ties (Yin wears green, Yang wears pink). Yin is a peaceful yogi while Yang is a chaotic daredevil. They don't always see eye to eye, but they have a bond that's stronger than super glue. And when they team up, they're unstoppable.
Tell Me More
Zen is spelled Y-I-N.
Yin can meditate anywhere. Her preferred spot is on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean, but really, any body of water will do. She once stared into a glass of water for nineteen hours.
Yang doesn't believe in rules.
Yang believes in toilet paper's right to freedom. A fresh roll of toilet paper is an affront to everything she stands for. She must set it free.
Yin loves her sister... most of the time.
Yang pushes Yin out of her comfort zone. She pushes Yin to achieve greatness. And she also pushes Yin off every available diving board.
Yang is committed.
"Still, silent, and stealthy," whispered Yang to herself. "I am invisible. I am a rug." "I can hear you, Yang," sighed Yin. "...who's Yang? I'm a rug."
Together, Yin and Yang can achieve the impossible.
Yin is quiet. Yang is loud. Yin is sensible. Yang is silly. Yin likes peace. Yang likes chaos. But when they put their differences aside, Yin and Yang make the perfect team. To catch a star, you need a ladder, a net, and a lot of sisterly love.
