What do you think makes Lumpy one of your favorite characters?
Ohhhhhhh boy you just opened the floodgates with this one.
But yeah, Lumpy is my absolute favorite character! I think one glance at any of my socials will tell people that. He actually ties with Flippy for the top spot on my favorites list! (And I canāt choose one over the other, theyāre both so good. Iāll have to post a tier list of my favorite HTF characters soon).
Anyways, short answer, heās like me fr fr and heās my comfort character. But long answer?
For one thing, I really like his design because heās one of the Tree Friends that doesnāt use the typical mold a lot of the characters use. Heās the most uniquely shaped cause heās the only tall character. (Which, I wonder why we havenāt had another tall character. Iād love to see another character with Lumpyās height and general shape. Honestly I say bring back the dinosaur from the pilot and have him be the second tall character, but I highly doubt thatād happen)
Heās also the most stylish out of anyone cause he has the most outfit changes. My absolute favorite ones are the magician and mailman outfits. Because of all his outfits and careers, I have officially labeled Lumpy the āBarbie of the HTF Universeā. Although this does make me wish more characters had more outfit variations. (Although I understand why, itās due to budget reasons and theyād have to make different assets for all the characters, yeah. Itās a lot).
And lastly, even though his personality is heavily inconsistent (especially in the TV series season) I think heās extremely endearing. Lumpy, in my opinion, is at his best when heās kinda dumb but still well meaning and kind. I think my absolute favorite Lumpy moment has to be in From A to Zoo when heās comforting Flaky. Itās just so sweet. And that time he was playing around with the origami birds he made in āHome Is Where the Hurt Isā, that was cute.
For everything I love about him I do have equal gripes with him, but my complaints will be saved for a future post. Maybe. If I even decide to make it. But otherwise, I love my blue overgrown moose son. š
