The Contenders
11 Toothless (How to Train Your Dragon)

Toothless should be much higher up! He's a brilliantly thought out character who expresses more personality than most speaking characters do! Same with Wall-E and Gromit.

Toothless is one of the most overrated characters of all time I can't stand this he is stupid

Toothless should be number one! He's a dragon with awesome personalities.

This should be in the top 5. It's Toothless for Thor's sake!
