James "Mushmouth" Mush is a member of the Junkyard Gang. In the Junkyard Band he plays a homemade skiffle-style guitar made from a wooden box and a handle from an upright vacuum cleaner.
Personality
Mushmouth is very easy-going and friendly. However, similar to others in the gang, he can be responsible when necessary. He'll always lend a hand when the Gang is undertaking a project.
His most prominent characteristic is his speech impediment (caused by a slack jaw and no chin), adding '-buh' at the end of most of his words ("Hey-buh, man-buh"), comparable to speaking in "Ubbi-Dubbi". But despite Mushmouth's verbal encumbrance, his intelligence tends to do him credit. Aside from the occasional input into a group conversation, Mushmouth usually tends to keep to himself.
Appearance
Mushmouth wears a red knit cap, a blue scarf, a yellow t-shirt, red pants (held by a black rope tied to his waist), and yellow sneakers with blue circles.
In the film, his appearance has several notable changes. Instead of his pants being held by a black rope, they are held up by rainbow-colored suspenders (that help to cover his ample stomach). His sneakers in the film are white and yellow.
