Stingy is an antihero in LazyTown.

Description

"A bossy collector of stuff, Stingy impatiently dreams of being king of the world. Young and eager, he loves playing with the group (you can’t be a king without subjects), but finds himself apoplectic with jealousy whenever anyone brings something new to play with, something that he doesn’t have. He feels that possessions ‘make the man’. Stingy’s avid collecting does mean that he usually has just the thing the others need to save the day, put on the play, or find their way. If he’ll only share it, that is.

Stingy admires Trixie’s carefree attitude, but he’s jealous of her leadership ability. He’s covetous of Pixel’s computers and gadgets, can’t comprehend Ziggy’s generosity, and, while he really likes Stephanie, is vexed by her seeming lack of concern with material things. What’s a king to do?" — LazyTown.com

Personality

Stingy, as his name implies, is the stingiest and greediest person in LazyTown. His catchphrase is "It's Mine!", which he says about almost everything, going as far as to have a song, The Mine Song, where he claims that everything is LazyTown belongs to him. Despite his greedy manner, he is a good friend who generally cares about them, and wouldn't let them down. He enjoys playing; especially with his friends; but becomes hurt and angry when he is excluded or they don't want to play with him. He is very clean and hygienic and teaches the kids how important it is to clean up and to keep everything tidy (Trash Trouble). His best friend is shown to be Ziggy.

Appearance

Stingy has a round build, a circle-shaped face, dark brown eyes, fair skin, and heavy eyelids. He is the only person in LazyTown (Besides Sportacus whose hair is always hidden) who has brown hair. He styles it short, with some of it being swept over to the left. His outfit consists of a long-sleeved button-up shirt with pale blue/grey stripes, a yellow vest, knee-length shorts in the same yellow, knee-high white socks, black loafers, a black belt, a red bow-tie with a white polka-dot pattern, and pig-shaped cufflinks. He also wears black-rimmed glasses occasionally.

Character Development

Most of the time, Stingy's greed is played for laughs or to the slight exasperation of his friends; Except in the episode The Great Crystal Caper where, after causing Sportacus to lose his crystal, Stingy finds and keeps it. He eventually gives it back and is deeply sorry and vows to try and do better at returning things that don't belong to him.

Apperence

Of all the characters, Stingy's outfits change the least between adaptions. In the first play, Stingy's outfit consists of a yellow suit, a large blue bow-tie, and black shoes. When he is next seen again, in 'Glanni Glæpur í Latabæ his outfit is almost identical to his current one, except his shirt is short-sleeved, his yellow vest has a black outline, and he wears black Oxford Shoes.

He is very musical, with him shown on the Saxophone, Harmonica, Bass, and Recorder. He is great on roller-blades (Of which he owns many), and is quite good at soccer. He is very clean and hygienic (Owning many toothbrushes, and he even taught Ziggy how to brush his teeth!) As well as teaching the kids how important it is to clean up, and to keep everything tidy ([[Trash Trouble|''Trash Trouble'']]). His best friend is shown to be [[Ziggy]]. At the end of The Great Crystal Caper, [[Trixie]] kisses him.
