The Scallions

**The Scallions** are a trio gang who usually play the role of main antagonists (but sometimes anti-heroes) in VeggieTales.

## Bio

The Scallions are a trio of mischievous green scallions who first appeared in "Daniel and the Lion's Den" on "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?". They are known for the wisemen, milk money bandits, salesmen, and the quartet singers with Phil Winklestein (aka Frankencelery).

## Physical Appearances

Scallion #1 is the medium-height (formerly tallest) of the trio. He is a slender scallion with purple eyelids, a long, purple nose, has a British accent and used to wear black mascara. He also wore a gold crusted belt with a red jewel. In earlier episodes, his stalks stick straight up like his two counterparts. In later episodes, his stalks were slicked back.

Scallion #2 is the tallest of the trio (medium-height before Scallion #1's stalks were combed back). He has a yellowish-green nose and eyelids and seems to be the skinniest of the trio. He has a deep, goofy voice that is somewhat similar to Jerry Gourd and Larry's original voice. In later episode, Scallion #2's nose changes to a teal color and his eyelids become a blue-grey color, although they change to the same color as his skin beginning with Pistachio.

Scallion #3 is the shortest scallion of the trio. He is a pudgy scallion with a big nose and eyelids. He arguably has the best singing voice out of the three scallions. In earlier episodes, his eyelids and nose were light blue. In later episodes, his eyelids and nose were dark green. However, beginning with Bob Lends a Helping Hand, his eyelids become gray.

As of The VeggieTales Show, particularly the episode Samson's Bad Hair Day, Scallion #1 has green eyelids and a dark navy blue nose, Scallion #2 has a slightly dark teal nose, and Scallion #3 has a darker green nose. They are also in the same shade of green and once again have white "feet," which they have previously lost in later episodes of the original show beginning with Esther.

Oddly, The LarryBoy episodes of The VeggieTales Show feature the Scallions with completely different nose colors: Scallion #1's nose is black, Scallion #2's nose is dark green, and Scallion #3's nose is a darker shade of green.

## Fun Facts

* They are the first villains in the VeggieTales series.
* After the series switched to Maya, Scallion One's hair stalks has been slicked back, making it more like it's combed.
* None of the scallions were ever named. However, according to a tweet by Phil Vischer, he imagines the Scallions' names being "Huey, Louie and Dewey", which is actually a reference to the characters of the same names from Disney's DuckTales.
	+ In addition to that, the Scallions are unrelated from each other's families, joined together to commit criminal activities and also purposely "scrubbed their records", making their birthdays/ages unknown. This has been confirmed by Phil on Twitter.
	+ There is also a running gag in the series (such as in the silly song "Larry's High Silk Hat") in which no one knows Scallion One's name.
	+ In King George and the Ducky, the Tallest Scallion's name was Cedric. And in Sweetpea Beauty, his name was Eddie, while Scallion #2 and #3 were respectively Barry and Frank.
	+ In the credits of The End of Silliness? for the silly song "The Yodeling Veterinarian of the Alps", the closest thing we had been almost given to official names of the Scallions for a while were Baritone Scallion, Melody Scallion and Tenor Scallion (see the image on the right), until Phil confirmed what he thinks the Scallions' actual names are in said tweet above.
* In several commentaries, some of the crew would often get Scallion One confused with Archibald. This is mostly due to the fact they eventually had similar voices starting around, and also because some of Scallion One's roles might be similar to Archie (e.g., Madame Blueberry, King George, and Esther. In fact, Archie was originally going to be in Esther, according to a progression reel found on the DVD for said episode. Ironically though, Archibald took Scallion One's role in the VeggieTales Super Comics adaption of the first Minnesota Cuke story).
* As the series progressed, Scallion #2's voice sounded more like Jean Claude's minus the French accent. He gained a new voice in his last appearance in the original series, although his original voice returned in The VeggieTales Show. Strangely though, he has a different voice in LarryBoy and the Emperor of Envy and in some scenes in LarryBoy and the Menacing Mushroom.
	+ Similarly, Scallion #3's voice in The VeggieTales Show sounds nearly identical to Scallion #2's.
* Scallion #3 is the only one of the three scallions to be taken over by a different voice actor starting in 2006.
* Out of the three scallions, Scallion #1 had the most appearances on VeggieTales.
* Conversely, Scallion #2 had the least appearances and is the only scallion to never appear on his own.
* While the Scallions returned in The VeggieTales Show, Scallion #1's model was also used for Scallini in LarryBoy and the Cape-Coat Caper.
