Background

Official Bio

"The grumpy moody sponge on a bubble who never feels like going on missions with the rest of the team and is scared by almost anything."

Personality

Sponghuck often feels very grumpy and never cares when something serious is happening. Like with Josie, he also tends to act negatively towards the others, but unlike Josie, showed very little sympathy or compassion. He also tends to get annoyed quite easily and is never impressed by anything. He's also extremely cowardly and is scared by almost anything. Later in the franchise, he's acted kinder and more caring towards the others, after he was reassured he was cared for. He's also really smart and has great ideas, but they are often ignored.

Physical appearance

Sponghuck is a rectangular lilac sponge with short legs, cuboid feet and four lilac eyes. However, most of the time, only two of them are visible and the other two are covered by a black balaclava he's wearing on his head. He has five-fingered hands and always wears mechanical gloves with purple stars on them. His primary outfit consists of a dark green shirt, blue trousers and a purple tie. He also has a wristwatch on his left wrist. Plus, he is often standing on an unpoppable bubble.

Trivia

• He speaks with a Scottish accent, since Ewan McGregor voices him.
• Sponghuck's real name is Arthur Vanstone.
• He's the only male Disney character, alongside Dr. Facilier and fellow Weird World character Lennox, to have purple eyes.
  • More specifically his eyes are lilac. 
• He was the first member of The Extraordinary Eleven to unlock his true potential.
• He didn't really care for the other members at first, except for Tyler.
  • Tyler was the one who brought Sponghuck along to the team when he was still young and he made sure to take care of him until he could take care of himself, something the others didn't really do much.
  • This would explain why he and Tyler shared a bedroom.
    • Although, he may actually care for Scooter as well, as he does show empathy towards him at times, but it's most likely because he's the team leader and he didn't want to show disrespect so he didn't get kicked out.
      • He did at times show trust for the others, except for George.
        • He started showing more care and loyalty towards everybody since the episode Spongy Situation.
• He's the only Double E's member who never fused at all throughout the course of the franchise.
• He really likes wafers. He even has a weapon that shoot them out.
• He was the only Double E's member in the first film to not realise his true potential as someone a part of the team. He'd wait until the episode Spongy Situation for that to happen.
• His birthday is April 14th.
• The character was originally one of the most hated Weird World characters, mainly because of his personality and attitude towards others, plus not showing any sense of loyalty whatsoever. Episodes like Who's That Man?, This Side of the Grave and Saved by the Soak gave many their breaking point of him. He was even hated by diehard Weird World fans. But that has changed a lot since the episode Spongy Situation, because of his strong backstory and development, which explained why he acts like he does and him acting a lot better since then. He has since been acclaimed by critics for he's determination and development, as well as his sarcastic humour.
