Tino Tonitini is the main character in the Toon Disney animated series, The Weekenders. He usually will introduce himself at the start of each episode as well as the following plot. Tino is a silly, strange individual, who does dorky things such as playing air guitar or laughing maniacally. Although he has his own sense of humor with his sarcastic wit. At the end of the episode, Tino turns to the camera to deliver the moral of the story. His trademark goodbye is “Later days!” Use the white and navy blue ribbon to replicate the stripes on the shirt, and affix with fabric glue, tape, or thread.

Oliver Putnam (played by Martin Short) is one of the three main characters in the Hulu series Only Murders in the Building.  A long-time New York City director, Oliver has an outlandish personality, his love for scarves matched only by his affinity for dips.  Along with Charles and Mabel, two of his neighbors, and fellow true-crime junkies, Oliver sets out to solve a murder in his apartment building, the iconic Arconia.  Often seen with a cellphone in hand to record spur-of-the-moment commentary, Oliver’s character is almost as colorful as his wardrobe.  When recreating his look, focus on layering dressy clothes with fabulous coats and silk scarves.

Angela (played by Elodie Grace Orkin) is a minor antagonist in the fourth season of Stranger Things.  A bully who picks on “Jane” at her new school in California, Angela has all the hallmarks of a stereotypical mean girl; pretty, popular, and cruel.  There are two costumes you could choose to recreate for her–the pink outfit she wears at school or the one she wears to the roller rink.  The first consists of a bleached denim skirt, pink and white striped blouse, pink beaded earrings and necklace, as well as scrunched-up white socks and white keds.  At the rink, she wears a teal bodysuit with pink shimmery shorts, multicolor star earrings, and a set of holographic bracelets.  You can use a blouse instead of a bodysuit, but may want to pin the hem to the inside of your shorts to make it look more fitted.  If you want to go as Angela after Jane takes her revenge with a roller skate, don’t forget a little blood gel to complete the look.

Jenny Simons (voiced by April Stewart) is a female student on the animated show South Park.  Jenny is best friends with Lola and co-chair of the list-making committee.  Leslie has dark hair with bangs and wears it pulled back with a dark purple headband that matches her mittens.  She finishes the look with the standard black shoes most South Park characters wear, dark blue pants, and a light blue jacket.

Ginger Snap is a character in Strawberry Shortcake. She lives in Cookie Corner, where she built her own factory and workshop. Her favorite activities include investing, tinkering with machinery, and baking cookies. She also has a pet chipmunk named Chocolate. Her best friend is Strawberry Shortcake, but she’s also friends with Orange Blossom. Compared to the other berry girls, Ginger Snap is considered more of a tomboy. Sew the pink ribbon around the hat and the bottoms of the jeans. Then use the yellow fabric paint to make the squiggle in the middle.

Millie Larsen (currently voiced by April Stewart) is a supporting character on the animated series South Park.  Millie speaks with a strong southern accent and is depicted as one of the popular girls in the company of Red, Lola, Heidi, and Bebe, among others. Millie wears a dark teal coat and has light ginger hair worn in two very short pigtails by lime green hair ties.  To recreate the neon green trim on her coat, tuck a bright scarf into the collar of your jacket.

Lemon Meringue is a major character in Strawberry Shortcake. While her name sounds sour, she’s actually very sweet! A prim and proper fashionista, Lemon knows all the latest trends. She even has her own salon, where she does hair and manicures. Her favorite activities include giving fashion advice and chatting with her friends (the other berry girls). In the 2009 series, she has a puppy named Henna.

Eddie Munson (Joseph Quinn) is a character in the Netflix original hit series, Stranger Things. He appears in the first installment of the fourth season. He is a senior at Hawkins High School (and has been for a few years). He is the leader of the Dungeons & Dragons club, also known as the Hellfire Club. He looks like your typical metalhead, complete with leather jacket and ripped denim jeans — plus the signature club shirt. He plays guitar in a band called Corroded Coffin. While Eddie comes off as rough around the edges, he has a good heart. Needless to say, he quickly became a fan favorite.
