Bluster KongBluster Kong is a fictional ape created for the animated series based off of the Super NES game Donkey Kong Country. Voiced by Donald Burda, he did not appear in any of the video games the show was based on, and therefore is not a part of the Donkey Kong game continuity. He serves as comic relief. Bluster runs Kongo Bongo Island's resident barrel factory, which is actually owned by his mother (an unseen character). He is the stereotypical rich coward, only he's a gorilla (somewhat like Frank Burns in a gorilla suit). He is constantly hitting on Candy Kong, his lone employee, despite the fact that she's dating Donkey Kong. Often, Bluster's attempts to impress Candy or help one of the other Kongs leads to more harm than good. 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 DK, Diddy Kong, and Cranky Kong seemingly talking about his x-ray pictures (they were actually talking about Cranky's x-ray machine). Another example of this is "Get A Life! Don't Save One!", where DK saves Bluster during an accident, and Bluster, indebted to DK, starts saving him from practically everything, even anything that's not really threatening. In one of his attempts to impress Candy, Bluster wound up transforming 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). As Leo Luster, Bluster was able to not only win Candy's affections, but also trick King K. Rool into giving up the Crystal Coconut. The effects were temporary, though, and Bluster soon changed back to his normal self. However, Bluster was able to temporarily become Leo Luster without the serum, because according to DK, "somewhere inside, is Leo Luster; the serum just brought it out." Quotations - "Why is there not an election to determine the future ruler of Kongo Bongo?"
- "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."
- "Marry me, Candy, and everything that's mine is yours, except for what's in this prenuptial agreement."
- "Wait a minute, not so fast! I want to go over that 'richer-poorer' part again with my lawyer!"
- "Can't we get this show on the road? I'm losing a fortune standing around here!"
- "There, how could Candy possibly resist me now? (looks at his comb) What's this? Hair? My hair?? AAH! My hair's falling out!!"
- "I can't use this. So what if I've lost a bit of hair? ...AAH! MORE HAIR!! I'm shedding!"
- "That unimaginative Donkey Kong would be more than happy to trade whatever treasure he finds for a... station wagon to cargo his bananas around."
