Maverick from Top Gun
In Top Gun, Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is one of the top fighter pilots in the Navy. His moves catch the eye of his wingmen and work their magic when enemies are locked onto his tail and ready to shoot their missiles into him. Volleyball and suntan lotion are not included.
Mr. Peanut
Mr. Peanut, born Bartholomew Richard Fitzgerald-Smythe, has been the dapper face of the Planters snack food company since 1916. He always dresses to the nines, at least on his head, hands, and feet.
Utz Girl
The Utz Girl is the face of a snacking empire stretching from Hanover, Pennsylvania to Baltimore, Maryland. You might consider accessorizing with the crab chips, but go with the original potato chips for the classic look. And most important of all, remember that Utz are better than nuts.

Cliff Huxtable
One name is synonymous with ugly sweater: Cosby. On the Cosby Show, Cliff Huxtable (Bill Cosby) immortalized the ugly sweater, taking it beyond anything we’ve seen before or since. The nice thing about these crazy patterns is that no one would ever notice if you got Jell-O pudding on them.
Crocodile Dundee
Paul Hogan is Crocodile Dundee, an Australian bushman who takes a trip to New York City. While he knows his way around snakes, crocodiles, and water buffalo, the Big Apple is quite another story.
Larry David
Larry David is star of Curb Your Enthusiasm and co-creator of Seinfeld. He likes to dress for comfort as he makes you cringe in discomfort by throwing all social norms out the window.
V for Vendetta
In V for Vendetta, an activist going by the name V starts a violent campaign to bring down a totalitarian government and free the people to rule for themselves. The mask he wears of the real-life Guy Fawkes has been adopted, in turn, by the real-life Anonymous and the Occupy movements.
