Craig Tucker

Craig Tucker is a member of the boys' fourth-grade class. Craig's most distinguishing physical feature is his blue chullo hat topped with a yellow puffball. One of his traits is his compulsive tendency to flip people off, usually for no discernible reason. He leads the group known as Craig's Gang. He is one of the two children while eight years old in the first three seasons, he was nine years old by "Fourth Grade", and as of the Season Twelve episode "Pandemic 2: The Startling", he is ten years old, according to the candles on his birthday cake. He also speaks with a rather deep voice, which is unusual for a child at his age.

Later on in that episode, he says "...as for me, I was returned home by homeland security. My parents were soooooooo happy." This could be a minor catchphrase of his.

* Craig is one of the only two kids who have three different Fantasy incarnations, the other one being Clyde, who has different costumes for different incarnations. However, Craig's costume remains the same, likely due to the same reason that he has a rather simple costume in The Fractured But Whole.
