Plucky Allen Duck is a Fictional Anthropomorphic green Duck who appeared in the 1990s animated series '' Tiny Toon Adventures ''. He is arguably the second main character of the show after Buster and Babs. Plucky was voiced by Joe Alaskey . Plucky, a Teenager , was portrayed on the series as a greedy, Egotistical , and easily excited young duck, who'd often engage in various schemes with the goal of either personal glory or satisfying some personal whim. These schemes ranged from inventing a Time Machine to delay doing his own Homework to traveling to Hollywood, California in an ill-fated attempt at selling his life story as a Movie . His schemes often failed because his ego got in the way or because a guilty conscience got the better of him (as was the case when he attempted to cheat on a test and subsequently went insane as he brooded over the morality of his actions). Babs once aptly described him as "the silly green duck with an ego the size of Cleveland ." Like the other characters in the series, Plucky attended Acme Looniversity, where his mentor and favorite teacher was Daffy Duck , and resembled his personality so much that he was nearly a clone. Similar to Daffy's relationship with Bugs Bunny , Plucky also sometimes found himself at odds with the two main stars of ''Tiny Toon Adventures'', Buster and Babs Bunny , though the three managed to remain friends (the rabbits were generally indifferent to Plucky's egotism when not using it to their advantage) nevertheless and Plucky occasionally displays a sense of loyalty to them. Plucky's best friend was Hamton J. Pig , a mild-mannered Pig and Plucky's opposite - much like Porky Pig being the opposite of Daffy - whom Plucky often takes advantage of; his romantic interest was Shirley The Loon , a young Psychic female duck. A comic book enthusiast, some episodes featured Plucky parodying various heroic characters, much like Daffy's roles of "Duck Dodgers" and "The Scarlet Pumpernickel". These included The Toxic Revenger (a parody of the B-movie character, The Toxic Avenger ; Plucky changed name and costume to The Trash Bag Dispenser in the cartoon "No Deposit, No Return of the Trash Bag Dispenser"), fighting the highly-pollutive Montana Max industries; James T. Duck (a parody of Captain Kirk in '' Star Trek ''); Bat-Duck (a parody of Batman , with Hamton in Robin 's red-and-green as "Decoy, the Pig Hostage"); and Pluck Hyerdahl of the ''Kon-Ducki'' in a parody of Thor Heyerdahl and the '' Kon-Tiki ''. Plucky's end tag was the Romeo And Juliet line, "Parting is such sweet sorrow!" SEE ALSO
