Happy Tree friends started with 20 main characters and in 2010 Lammy & Mr Pickels was added
and made the total 22. But there was many characters that did not join
the original 20 main characters. In this video I will be showing what
I think are the most interesting scrapped characters that never made it into the show.
But before I start, the idea for this video was a suggestion that came from “The Red Stone 1000”
Let’s start with Chef Sloth, and his final name was Cookie the sloth.
Whenever other characters would turn on the TV what they would see is Cookie’s cooking show,
but due to him being a sloth it would take him too long to make the food and to add the ingredients.
Cookie was very close to making it into the show and was a part of the final line up of characters,
but due to the early episodes being very short, he never appeared.
This is probably my favourite. Her name is unknown but she’s a possum with a flower on her head
like Petunia, She was going to be a mom who would carry her kids on her body, but what is shocking
about this character is that… she was going to pull the tails off her kids and throw them,
and they would explode like hand grenades. Imagine something so adorable could be so cruel and dangerous.
Next we have different drawings of a convict character who is a mole.
And he was named “Diggy”. He was most likely scrapped because he
would probably be doing similar things to Lifty & Shifty.
Here’s Pranky who was also named “Jokey”,
I don’t think I need to say what he does, but he reminds me of Mime in “Mime To Five”
due him having an antler and the Groucho Marx glasses with a nose and moustache.
Next, we have Penny, who’s species is unknown,
but she seems to be wealthy, due to her having a crown and a dead mink around her neck.
Here we have Meat Face, who was originally called ”Ugly”, his species is unknown he was going to
be deranged and crazy. He wears a bag because his face is all mangled and you could never directly
look at him. I think he was most likely scrapped due to that fact that he does not have a cute design.
Princess seems to be a rabbit like Cuddles, but with eyelashes and a crown just like Penny.
Maybe she was a character that Cuddles would fancy to have as a girlfriend
and he would be seen trying to impress her.
Well here we have Skizzy the starving squirrel,
Rhode Montijo said that he is from his college news paper. It kind of makes me think of Nutty
in “Dunce Upon A Time” due to Nutty starving in that episode and the fact that he’s a squirrel.
Here we have a character who seems to be either a robot or a cyborg, his species is unknown and he
is clearly inspired by the T-800 from Terminator. He was going to be a character who does everything
perfect and made other characters jealous, and there was talk about him having some 3D effects.
This is Swami the Skunk, he has what seems to be a monkey plush
with a fez and there was talk about him maybe fighting Buddhist Monkey.
Here we have a character who is maybe a fox due to the tail, and has Crutches like Giggles in
“Helping Helps” and has a flower like Petunia.
These are both called “Bunny Bumkin”, they are brothers and would be seen driving in a car.
They was going to be used in an episode that would be inspired by an American show
called “The Dukes Of Hazard”
“Mafia Doctor” who is a deer, seems to be an injured doctor,
and he has concrete shoes. He was a character whom whenever
a character gets hurt, they would go and see him, but he would make things worse.
here we have a platypus with a hat, flippers,
and a Loch Ness monster rubber ring, like Giggles' concept art
Here we have another platypus character who was going to be crazy maniac with a straitjacket, and he would
be foaming at the mouth. Which he reminds me of Nutty due his eyes and the foaming of his mouth
And I will end with this… Now many think that the dinosaur Lumpy
and Mr Pickels was a little bit out of place, well here is a centaur character which all I know
is that he was going to be depressed. But yeah this design is not exactly good.
Let's just say that.
