AAH! My hair's falling out!!" "Can't we get this show on the road? I'm losing a fortune standing around here!" "Wait a minute, not so fast! I want to go over that 'richer-poorer' part again with my lawyer!" "Marry me, Candy, and everything that's mine is yours, except for what's in this prenuptial agreement." "I'm just one sneaky, peeping, two-bit step away from becoming an even richer richest ape on Kongo Bongo Island- and that's rich." Donkey Kong also sees Bluster's greater potential, believing Bluster doesn't need a potion to be Leo Luster. When he isn't sparing against Donkey Kong for Candy's affections, Bluster has been known to set aside past feuds with Donkey Kong, enabling the two to work together harmoniously and be friendly with one another. He showed concern for Diddy when the latter had contracted Kongo Bongo Gone Wrongo disease and was horrified along with the other Kongs when it seemed Cranky had lost his life in a plane accident. Under special circumstances, Bluster has proven to be caring, helpful and a competent hero, and he has even showed empathy for characters aside Candy. However, he does show a kind side, yet his efforts at heroism usually end up backfiring on him at best or causing more harm than good at worst. Bluster acts regal and confident, but when the odds are stacked against him, he snaps like a twig and will resort to groveling and even aid his aggressors, such as the evil King K. He regularly tries to demean and belittle Donkey Kong due to the latter being a slacker and of mediocre intelligence. However, Bluster was able to temporarily become Leo Luster without the serum, because according to DK, "Somewhere inside, he is Leo Luster the serum just brought it out".Ĭonceited, pompous, vain, and narcissistic, Bluster is motivated by his lust for Candy Kong and his pride. The effects were temporary, though, and Bluster soon changed back to his normal self. As Leo Luster, Bluster was able to not only win Candy's affection (and to a minor extent, impress Diddy), but also trick King K. In one of his attempts to impress Candy Kong, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong, Bluster wound up transįorming into a heartthrob named Leo Luster as a result of mixing all his hair tonics together (he thought it was unnatural for his hair to fall out).
Another example of this is "Get A Life! Don't Save One!", where Donkey Kong saves Bluster during an accident and Bluster, indebted to DK, starts saving him from practically everything, even anything that's not really threatening. Some episodes actually focused around this character insight, such as "From Zero to Hero", in which Bluster, thinking that he was going to die within a week after hearing Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and Cranky Kong seemingly talking about his x-ray pictures (they were actually talking about Cranky's x-ray machine). Often, Bluster's attempts to impress Candy or help the other Kongs leads to more harm than good. He is constantly hitting on Candy Kong, his lone employee, despite the fact that she's dating Donkey Kong. He is the stereotypical rich, spoiled coward (somewhat like Frank Burns in a gorilla suit). Occasionally, he speaks with his mother on a cell phone. He is the co-owner of the Barrel Works Factory.īluster runs Kongo Bongo Island's resident barrel factory, which is actually owned by his mother (an unseen character). He does not appear in any of the games the show was based on, though his mustache does resemble that of Uncle Kong from the 2nd game's Japanese strategy guide. Bluster Kong is a character from the Donkey Kong Country animated series, based on the Super NES game of the same name.
