2. Blinx The Timesweeper
While many animals have carved our niches as heroes, we have our hedgehogs, our bandicoots and...whatever Rayman is. While there had been a couple of efforts, nobody really made the humble cat their own, Busby was a bobcat, so that is close but not quite right, but then Blinx The Timesweeper came along and proved that...actually it proved that cats are rubbish. Blinx was essentially a "time janitor" and had to do battle with the Tom Tom's (who had absolutely nothing to do with Sat Nav) in order to rescue a princess. He manages to save the day with the use of his trusty Time Sweeper, but basically he would be totally useless without his super powered Dyson.
