** The a few other Heartless, like the mushrooms and magic jars, are also pretty cute.

** Yugopotamia has BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad as their [[PlanetOfHats hat]]. Giggle-pies are actually seriously disgusting, if not frightening, to them. Of course, they'll still be adorable to the ''audience.''

* The Imps in ''DungeonKeeper'', who don't fight, but due to their gold mining and digging skills they're the most essential unit in the game. Of course there are plenty of ''other'' minions that are far more monstrous.

** Marceline's dad refers to Gunther, the Ice King's personal penguin butler, as the most evil creature he's ever encountered. Given that Marceline's dad is a soul-sucking abomination (who conspicuously refuses to suck Gunther's soul)...

* In ''AdventureTime'', Ice King has cute little penguins as mooks

* During his [[HeelFaceRevolvingDoor very brief heel turn]] in 2009, Matt Hardy began to show up ringside on ''Friday Night [=SmackDown!=] with a Jack Russell Terrier in his arms. The little dog never actually did anything evil, but its presence was meant to cause Matt's brother Jeff great anguish because it was a reminder that [[CompleteMonster Matt had killed Jeff's own little dog when he had burned down Jeff's house purely out of jealousy]]. (The burning of Jeff's house and the death of his dog actually happened, but Matt's involvement in it was {{Kayfabe}}; the real cause of the fire was faulty wiring.)

Expect them to be fairly incompetent and HilarityEnsues whenever they are left on their own. Despite knowing they're hardly dependable, expect their employer to moan at least once about how he's "SurroundedByIdiots".

* In ''AdventureTime'' Ice King has cute little penguins as mooks

* Lucky from ''SonicX'', anyone? His main thing was, [[CaptainObvious of course]], luck. He (it?) was a bell-shaped robot with huge rabbit feet (which it was contantly tripping over, making it fall down a lot), a four-leafed clover insignia painted on the front, and a key on it's back (like on a clockwork toy), and made a squeaking noise when it walked. As clumsy as Lucky may have been, he was still able to survive (and even get a Chaos Emerald during the Sonic Adventure story arc!) out of pure luck.
** Bokkun the messenger robot as well. Looking vaguely like one of the huggable virtual pets from the games, he was able to seem cute and cuddly even when trying to deliver cartoony bombs.

** Christ, YMMV on that one. This troper found them to be one of the most annoying things in the entire Prequel Trilogy, next to 'It'. And you know what 'It' is.

* Instead of a pool of sharks with FrickinLaserBeams on their heads like he wanted, [[AustinPowers Dr. Evil]] ends up with a pool full of seabass, because that's all his BeleagueredAssistant could get.
