Mr. Coconuts

Mr. Coconuts is Luan's ventriloquist dummy. He is a recurring character in the series.

Biography

Mr. Coconuts is Luan's ventriloquist dummy that she sometimes uses for her comedy material. Like most ventriloquists, Luan moves his lips up and down to project the illusion of speech, by talking through clenched teeth. Whenever she sets up a joke, she has him deliver it, and laughs at his punchlines. Unlike Colonel Crackers, Mr. Coconuts does not have a voice of his own. Up until the ending of "Stage Plight", he was never seen moving when he is not being controlled by Luan.

Appearance

Mr. Coconuts has big eyes, with over-exaggerated pupils that resemble coconuts, hence the name; orange hair in a pompadour, and enlarged dimples, with painted freckles. He wears a yellow barbershop hat, a light blue buttoned jacket, rolled up pants, yellow boots, and a red bow tie.
