The Character: “Someday I will be a beautiful butterfly, sen everything will be better!”
A clown in PT Flea’s circus troupe, Heimlich is of German descent and a chirpy little fella. Like most characters of gross proportion, he just loves to eat. And dreams of one day spreading his wings.
Screen-time: An instrumental part of various rescue missions against the villainous grasshoppers means Heimlich gets quite a bit of screen-face action.
Lasting Impression: Hilariously voiced and grossly endearing (ahem). The bit where Heimlich sprouts tiny little butterfly wings is a highlight of A Bug's Life. We want A Butterfly's Life soon, please.
