Toothy is a male character in the Object Overload franchise. He appeared as a contestant in the 2013 and 2015 series.
Character Bio[]
Toothy is a self-obsessed premolar tooth with a high-pitched and sometimes a bit strained voice who often likes to brag about himself as being awesome. He is a self-proclaimed leader of his alliance with Coney, Paper Airplane, and later Fly Swat. This alliance is the first one to ever form on the show, since their alliance had formed some time prior to the events of the show.
Due to his huge ego, Toothy almost never interacts with people outside his alliance. Thus, he only has two people who he has a negative relationship with: Top Hat and Clock. Toothy and his alliance tries pranking Top Hat, which could explain the negative relationship between him and Toothy, and Clock's robot butterfly knocked off (or maybe killed) his alliance save for him.
Appearance[]
Going off by his appearance, Toothy seems to be a premolar tooth (also known as a bicuspid), as he appears to have two cusps on his crown. In the 2013 and 2015 shires, he is pure white and his legs were often rendered to start at the end of his ligaments. In the upcoming series, he is off-white.
Personality[]
Toothy is mainly highly egotistical and competitive. Despite presumably being the weakest of his alliance, he likes boasting to other characters on how he thinks he is better than everyone else. Him trying to boast how he is supposedly "the most athletic" was how he lost the first challenge in the 2013 and 2015 series, as he was too focused on his speech to not notice Boombox kicking a dodgeball towards him, causing him to get hit and the face and fall off. He interacts much more often with his alliance, which he is the leader of, than any other character.

2013 Series[]
"The End of the Beginning"[]
Toothy was first seen flying with his alliance (except for Fly Swat who did not appear until Set in Stone). Paper Airplane then bumps into a tree, causing him to fall down alongside Toothy and Coney. Toothy was then pummeled into the ground by how hard he was falling.
According to Coney, Toothy and the other two alliance members are trying to find Top Hat just to pull a hilarious prank on Top Hat. Masky walks over, and Toothy tells Masky that she is the one who could find Top Hat, Masky was then given a flyer by Toothy.
Masky tells Toothy that Top Hat is teaching Marble and Pearly how to act proper (Top Hat's student became Dusty in the reboot). Toothy thanked Masky and then jumping on Paper Airplane, telling his alliance to go to where Top Hat is.
In the challenge, when he, Boombox, and Clock are the remaining contestants, Toothy says that, since he is "the most athletic," he would win, but he was hit by a dodgeball (that was kicked by Boombox) mid-speech, causing him to fall off.
"A Shocking Addition"[]
Boombox had a conversation with Toothy about what happened in the previous challenge. During the team choosing, Toothy and his two alliance-mates were the second people chosen onto Boombox's team (later named Team Tune). Paper Airplane was chosen to guide while Toothy and Coney got into the maze. Unfortunately, he guided only Coney, so Boombox had to get into the maze and tell Toothy to grab onto her handle. They make it out before Clock and Popcorn, scoring Boombox's team the win.
2015 Series[]
"Rostrum Rampage"[]
Toothy is seen in the reboot, asking his alliance if they were ready. Coney is, but PA wasn't too sure. Toothy then asks how the cliff dive would be a bad idea. Coney, after Fly Swat corrected her from the "pitch" thing, pushes Paper Airplane, who is carrying Toothy, off the cliff.
Since Toothy wasn't attached to the rope, he fell down face-flat. Once Kite asks if the alliance was okay, Toothy, who is dizzy, reacts by saying "SHLARGEN...FARGEN..."
Once PA says the cliff dive was successful, Toothy appears saying "SHLARGEN!" again.
After Kite says that this was the third time in the week she gets them out of the mess, Toothy is then yelled at Fly Swat to take note of it.
Pumpkin, after Kite leaves and Toothy, says that the toast is good, tries scaring them, only for Toothy and his alliance to chuckle.
In the challenge, Toothy and his alliance try and knock down Snowglobe. Toothy picks Fly Swat to throw the dodgeball at him (because he said so), only to backfire by ricocheting off of Snowglobe's podium and back at Fly Swat. Toothy then yells at Coney to throw the dodgeball. At first, it dodges Snowglobe, but then, once Coney says to give it a second, it ricochets off of an empty podium and hits Snowglobe, causing him to shatter.
However, Clock then tries to hinder Toothy's alliance's progress by using a robotic butterfly. After PA and Coney say how beautiful the butterfly is, Toothy then warns his alliance. The butterfly then explodes causing his alliance (but himself) to fall off and half of the podium to be destroyed.
Once Toothy, Boombox and Clock are the remaining contestants of the challenge, Toothy says it is the chance to show the others what he's made of, then saying the same speech from The End of the Beginning, only to get hit by a dodgeball kicked by Boombox. While Boombox and Clock cheer for their victory in the challenge, Toothy gets a bit upset, saying that he was supposed to win.
Fates[]
Deaths[]
- "The End of the Beginning": Falls off his podium and becomes fatally injured. (debatable)
Injuries[]
- "The End of the Beginning": Falls off of his podium and becomes injured in some way. (debatable, if death is ruled out, but he also could have landed unscathed)
Trivia[]
- In both versions of the first episode, Toothy makes the exact same speech before he ends up getting hit by a dodgeball and losing the challenge.
- Toothy is Niall's previous favorite character in the Object Overload franchise, before being replaced by Marble.
- Toothy is the first character to speak in the 2015 series.
- His name is similar to a character from another internet webseries, "Happy Tree Friends." It was most likely just a coincidence, as Toothy (like other characters in Object Overload) is named after what he is.
- He is easily mistaken by the fans for a girl, mainly due to his high-pitched voice.
- This problem also occurs with Boxing Glove, but Boxing Glove's problem is less likely to occur than Toothy's due to the fact that he sounds feminine despite being a male.
- Toothy may actually like paddling with oars, according to In Deeper Waters.
- Toothy is the only Object Overload contestant who's name starts with a T that has arms.
- There was a challenge in a scrapped Object Overload episode where the goal was to get Toothy's loose tooth out of his mouth.
- In "Happy No-Content Anniversary," Niall mentioned about the time where he went on an Object Overload fan wiki once, and on Toothy's page, it said that he was a weird-looking tooth.
- He had teased that the fan wiki was canon.
- Niall has confirmed multiple times that Toothy's voice is not based on Mickey Mouse, the mascot of Disney.
