Ricky
 

And here we have Ricky. Well, what can we say about Ricky? Ricky is a T-Rex. And because, as he says, "Rex" means king in "Talein," The little T-Rex with the stubby teeth has an incredibly big mouth, and all too often he babbles some kind of boastful nonsense. But he doesn't just talk a lot of nonsense, he also does a lot of stupid things. No matter what you say to him, Ricky does the opposite. He has boundless self-confidence. And his flatulence isn't bad either. Whenever it suits him, he calls himself the "King of the Dinosaurs."
