Raygun from the Paris 2024 Olympics

With breakdancing making its debut as an event at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympic Games, b-girl Raygun stole the show. The university lecturer, real name Rachael Gunn, actually holds a PhD that focused on breakdancing culture. Her original dance moves, like kangaroo hopping and floor writhing, quickly went viral on the internet. Unfortunately the judges saw differently, and Raygun was unable to score a single round.

Dumb Donald from Fat Albert

In Fat Albert, Dumb Donald (voiced by Lou Scheimer) is a member of the Junkyard Gang. In the band, he plays a trombone pieced together with plumbing and parts of a gramophone. He’s simple-minded as his name suggests, but has bursts of intelligence every once in awhile.

Julie Bruin from Tiny Toon Adventures

Julie Bruin (based on and voiced by Julie Brown) is a character in the animated series Tiny Toons Adventures.  She doesn’t have much screen time, but Julie appears cheerful and happy.  Julie wears a sexy green dress, black gloves, black earrings, and black shoes.  She has ginger hair with bangs and red lipstick.  Since Julie is a bear, you can add an animal ear headband to complete the look.

Huckleberry Pie from Strawberry Shortcake

Huckleberry Pie is one of the only male characters from the Strawberry Shortcake franchise, appearing in numerous series. He is a fisherman and one of Strawberry Shortcake’s friends. He also has a puppy named Pupcake.

To dress like Huckleberry, wear a straw bucket hat and attach faux blueberries or huckleberries at the side (I’ve attached blueberries in this case as they’re brighter in color like the original design). Wear a purple sweater over blue overalls. Roll the legs of the overalls into cuffs, then take green and white striped fabric and cover it either by sewing or glueing, hiding the seams in the folded areas. You can also use this fabric to cut out a large square to tie as a bandana to wear around your neck, and if you’d like to take the costume even further, carry any stuffed dog and cover it ears and one paw in the striped fabric by glueing or sewing like patches.

Mifune from Soul Eater

Mifune (voiced in Japanese by Kenjiro Tsuda and in English by Robert McCollum) is a secondary character in the anime/manga series, Soul Eater.

He once served as a bodyguard for criminal organizations, due to his status as a legendary samurai, but when we first see him in the series, he is acting as a guardian and protector of a very young witch, Angela Leon. She isn’t strong enough to protect herself, so she relies on him to stay safe, as witches are very targeted.

Mifune has long, dusty blonde hair, and mid-toned brown eyes. For this outfit (he has a few), he wears a long sleeved white shirt with ‘osamurai’ written on the chest, ankle length blue jeans with frayed ends, with a thick black belt, and tan sandals. He carries around a case with a large amount of swords.

Mr. Boss from Smiling Friends

Mr. Boss is a character in the Adult Swim cartoon Smiling Friends, now streaming on HBO Max. He is the boss of Smiling Friends and the only human character in the show. Mr. Boss appears elderly but he is quite active and enthusiastic for his age. While highly eccentric, he truly cares about making people smile. He also truly cares about his employees. Put on a gray toupee to complete the look.

Brittany Miller from Alvin and the Chipmunks

Brittany Miller (voiced by Janice Karman) is a supporting character in the cartoon series Alvin and the Chipmunks.  She is the sister of Jeannette and Eleanor and the lead singer of their group The Chipettes.  Brittany is sassy and can come across as a little entitled, but she shows care for her sisters and Alvin.  To recreate Brittany’s 80s look, you’ll want to start with light purple leggins and a hot pink leotard.  Layer a ruffled skirt and a capelet over the leotard (you may want to turn the capelet backward so the ruffles are more visible in front).  Then, tie a pink scarf around your neck into an oversized bow and add light purple shoes and yellow leg warmers.  If you don’t want to style your own hair, choose a wig with bangs and a half-up style.g

Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb

Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb

Perry the Platypus (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) is the pet of Phineas and Ferb who lives a double life as secret Agent P of O.W.C.A. The rest of the time, he doesn’t do much crawling on all fours as a mindless smelly animal.

Glep from Smiling Friends

Glep is a character in the Adult Swim cartoon Smiling Friends, now streaming on HBO Max. He is a miniature green critter who wears a purple wizard hat. He works at Smiling Friends though it’s unclear what his job is. Most times, Glep is sitting in a bean bag chair watching a video on his tablet. He speaks Gibberish. When auditioning for the role of Mr. Frog, his punchline was spitting afterward.

Gus from Sweet Tooth

Gus is one of the main characters from the Netflix series Sweet Tooth, and is played by Christian Convery. Sweet Tooth follows Gus who is a boy that is half human and half deer as he travels through a post-apocalyptic world with help from a man named Tommy.

To dress like Gus, wear a red flannel under an orange puffer vest. Over that wear a nylon belt around the waist and attach a woven pouch to it on one side. Pair with blue jeans that you can distress with things like brown paint and sand paper or scissors to break it down. You can also cut out various shades of denim swatches and glue or sew them on the jeans. Over the jeans wear a rope belt, and additionally you can tie yellow embroidery floss around it to be even more accurate. Finally, wear black boots and of course deer antlers.
