** Po from ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda'' is kind of similar to Panda King, isn't he? Knows kung fu, uses his fat to his advantage, and both works use a lot of fireworks.

* MagnificentBastard: Bentley Turtle is the ingenious brains behind the Cooper Gang, using his proclivity for technology and strategy to see his team through to success in all of their endeavors. Though initially hanging back as a non-action voice to focus on mapping out the best tactics for Sly to use, Bentley eventually enters the field as an excellent operative, using sleeping darts, explosives, and other personally-designed technology to take down opponents in both stealth and combat situations. Plotting out the methods to take down the Fiendish Five and the Klaww Gang, Bentley regularly engages in sabotage and manipulation of worse criminals into turning on each other, all while he helps the Cooper Gang pull off heists of their own. His crowning technological achievement is creating a working time machine that he uses to save the Cooper bloodline from erasure by Le Paradox, closely followed by him masterminding the infiltration of Dr. M's island. Polite yet ruthless, Bentley will do anything for his friends and rip off the worst of the worst to see the Cooper Gang's success.

Never understood why it was changed. I do believe this fits better, because I remember seeing plenty of forums where these were downplayed or ignored.

Added DiffLines:

* DracoInLeatherPants: The Cooper Gang ''itself''. Despite their reputation of only going after criminals, [[AllThereinTheManual supplementary information]], [[NoodleIncident one-off remarks in the dialogue]], and even [[CutScene cutscenes]] suggest that they (Sly especially) are perfectly willing to rob museums and private individuals if they have enough security to be a challenge (and/or [[TheGadfly it would annoy Carmelita]]), and even engage in petty theft as a form of recreation between big jobs. They also have no problems killing, best shown in ''Sly 3'', where Murray ''gleefully [[EatenAlive feeds miners to a giant crocodile]]'' as part of Bentley's plan. Not to mention their recruiting people like Dimitri, former mafia boss and drug pusher, Penelope, who regularly cheated at [[BloodSport dogfight flying competitions]] so she could win, or the Panda King, a former mass murder, into their group. Still, the games don't dwell on these incidents, and most fans ignore them entirely.

Misuse, the Cooper gang are anti-heroic thieves who usually rob from worse criminals. Plus most people do not see them as Designated Heroes as the example itself notes.
