### Just Kidding Magazine

With a heart as mushy as his body, Ricardo can be a hopeless - and hapless - romantic. He's the first to jump into the fray if it means a chance at impressing a putrid paramour-or if he just gets caught up in one of Meathead's wacky schemes. Far from brave, Ricardo often finds himself in over his rotting head - which only turns into a jumble of mashed-up nerves! But when push (or squish) comes to shove, Ricardo proves to be a fruit of action, adventure, and neuroses!

## TV Tropes Website Info

**Ricardo**

**Voiced By:** Brianna Plantano

The romantic of the Shopkins. Handsome by food standards, Ricardo is a Hispanic ladies' man. Not the bravest of Shopkins, he often gets tangled in Meathead's schemes, but proves himself when push comes to shove.

* '**90s Hair:** His banana peel is peeled in a way to resemble curtain bangs.
* **Adaptation Name Change:** From “Buncho Bananas” in the toyline.
* **Dashing Hispanic:** He has the accent, the charm, a pencil mustache, and his peel is even partway down to look like parted bangs. He's also a good fencer...using a spork.
* **The Fighting Narcissist:** He's handsome by Shopkin standards, something that he's fully aware of. As such, even in his formidable fighting, he takes time to brag about his beauty.
* **Gratuitous Spanish:** He has the tendency to swap random words with their Spanish equivalent.
* **Helicopter Blender:** His ability in Putrid Power form turns his peel parts into blades that can rotate like a helicopter and parry attacks.
* **Latin Lover:** The girl Shopkins love him.
* **Non-Mammal Mammaries:** In a rare male version of this trope, he has visible pecs when his peel is removed.
* **Odd Name Out:** He is the the only one to not have a descriptive name, rather, he has an actual one.
* **Screams Like a Little Girl:** For all the charm he has, he still has a very high-pitched scream.
