I got all 70's & 80's whilst searching through you tube. Watching cartoons whilst growing up i used to love Penelope pitstop.How about getting some of you fine looking ladies to dress up as her ,with pink thigh high boots ,being in messy peril George

Ah, Penelope Pitstop and her thinly disguised S+M games with Sylvester Sneakly, who she knew full bloody well was the hooded claw. He'd tie her up in his rubbish deathtraps which she'd gamely struggle with before releasing herself and going off to the next one. Often she'd have to use her mechanical skills gained in Wacky Races to sabotage Chugaboom to prevent the Anthill mob showing up and interfering in her and Sylvester's love games - it was never clear if she couldn't bring herself to tell them to naff off or if she got a kick out of fucking with them, but it was probably the latter.

Classic stuff indeed!

As a huge cartoon fan, and moderately knowledgeable about the work of Hanna-Barbera, I would love to do this. However, the company that now owns them (probably Warner Bros as they own just about everything) are notoriously defensive of their character rights, so some name changing would have to be done.

Incidentally, in Wacky Races (on a good day I can run through all the competitors with their descriptions as per the title sequence), Penelope was revealed in one episode to have a button labelled 'vibrator' on her dashboard. Sadly it was not a Gilly/Candy-style dildo but a device to vibrate the car.

For some reason Louise strikes me as a good Penelope.

PS The Ant Hill Mob were interfering, annoying little shits. Especially that one that cried all the time.

what about penny pinksplosh as a name!

Sounds good to me.

Actually, a CD Penelope would be quite fun if it was really over-the-top draggy.

is that a hint im game

To continue the topic, this site http://www.tiedpiedandmessycuties.com/ featured a character called Penelope Piesplat not long ago. I've a feeling there may have been a previous post on the subject.
