Bucky

Bucky Miller is a member of the Junkyard Gang. 

Appearance & Personality

Bucky acquired his nickname from his large buck teeth. He wears a yellow t-shirt, green pants, and yellow sneakers. He sports a soup bowl-style haircut. He has very poor posture, particularly when walking. It is claimed that Bill Cosby meant for him to have Spina Bifida, but an episode explaining this fact never aired.

In the original series, Bucky is second only to Russell as the shortest member of the Junkyard Gang. He is also the quietest member, and as such little is known about his private life, but he is invariably shown to be friendly and easygoing. By the time the 1984-85 episodes aired, Bucky had grown taller and his voice became deeper.

In the Junkyard Gang, Bucky plays the stovepipe organ, which consists of a discarded piano keyboard and a junked wood-burning stove and pipes.

In the film, his appearance remains the same, with the only exception that his pants were colored in a lighter green, and wears yellow and white sneakers. He is often seen arguing with Dumb Donald whenever the latter blurts out "I don't know" to whenever Bucky asks rhetorical questions until Bill cuts off their arguing.

Trivia

  • He was voiced by Jan Crawford in the classic series.
