Did I really just read this and not see The Little Mermaid… otherwise known as Ariel??? I must have missed it… She is pretty hot… I would prefer without the whole mermaid tail thing… but woudl take her either way… she was designed after Alissa Milano supposedly… hmmm maybe I should check snopes about that… but I don’t care… she is still hot… ---

Ariel was modeled on Sherri Stoner, a Disney animator who later moved to Warner, working on Animaniacs among other things. If you have the VHS, she’s the one talking to the goldfish in the pre-feature promos. I’ll also toss another vote in for Nani. yummy ---

Can’t help it - I’m in love with [David Kawena](http://us.imdb.com/EGallery?source=ss&group=0275847&photo=JasonScottLee.jpg&path=group), Nani’s boyfriend, from _Lilo & Stitch_. (And Jason Scott Lee, for that matter.) SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH! Esprix ---

Android 17 from DBZ. Yes. God what a fooking beautiful creature. > [@](#): > > er, not cartoon techniquely, but i am MADLY in love with sesshomaru from “inuyasha.” what a sexy sexy man… **Abatha** , good GOD, how could you overlook Inuyasha himself? He has wolf-dog-ish ears! The _pointy_ kind! POINTY! How sexy is THAT?:eek:🙂 _applies ice pack_ …And I SEEM to recall an obsession with the title character of Danger Mouse, an obscure show somewhere around the early nineties… hmm. ---

Her name escapes me at the moment, but Pete’s wife on _Goof Troop_ is a major-league hottie. ---

I have to agree with **Tanaqui** about aladdin, i always liked him when i was growing up but i watched again recently and i couldn’t help thinking he was hot. Trent from Daria is pretty cool and i often find myself wishing he was real. Yeah, i don’t get out a lot. Right now i really wish i could meet Ryan Cartwright from a few small tv shows. Hes not a cartoon but i really want to meet him! sorry for the hijak there, i’m not obsessed, no… ---

Melissa from Home Movies. She has an incredibly sexy voice and the character’s personality is great. It’s a weird show, though, her character is a child but the dialogue and voices are all adult, so it makes me feel kinda like a creepy pedophile. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by SnugTheJoiner \* > \*\*As a gay male, who else could I fall for but Race Bannen? > > Seriously, don’t you think it’s time that he and Dr. Quest came out? Jonny and Hadji are pretty mature for their age; they could handle the truth. \*\* You missed the first episode of “Harvey Birdman, Attourney at Law”? Shame on you. While there’s tons of really hot looking ladies all over the animated world (damn, some people can **DRAW** ) I always put the ladies of “The Warlord” as cream of the crop. Mmmm, fur bikinis. Tara Mariah Jennifer Shakira And each one of them could kick my ass 5 ways from Sunday. How could that not have been made into a B-movie? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Buck The Diver \* > \*\*Her name escapes me at the moment, but Pete’s wife on _Goof Troop_ is a major-league hottie. \*\* Her nane’s Peg, derived from the prototypical Disney villian Peg-Leg Pete. Pete from Goof Troop was the latest, more mellow incarnation. I think Peg is shown [here](http://www.toonarific.com/g/gooftroop2.jpg), second from the left. ---

When I was a teen, I always had a thing for **Penny** from _Inspecter Gadget_. Of course, there was **Josie** from _Josie and the Pussycats_, but she was an older woman and therefore out of my league. My, how time flies. ---
