History Characters / FrostyTheSnowman

* TookALevelInCynic: It's downplayed, but by the time of ''Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July,'' he's far more cautious when it comes to venturing outside the North Pole, and is initially forbidding of his family to go down to the seashore simply because they'll melt in the hot summer sun. Even with Winterbolt's amulets, he spends nearly the whole trip worrying about Santa not arriving to pick them up and rush them back home.

* EarnYourHappyEnding: After having spent most of the film trying so hard to get Frosty's hat back, only for Santa to have to threaten to never bring him any more Christmas presents to get him to back off, Hinkle is able to get a new hat - albeit after he writes "I am very sorry for what I did to Frosty" one hundred zillion times as proof of his repentance. He's seen happily marching along with the rest of the town when Frosty joins them in the Christmas parade, with a new hat, no less.

* BalloonBelly: In ''The Legend of Frosty the Snowman'', he gets this after rolling down a hill with Walter.

* BigFun: Big and plump, and really funny, especially in ''Legend'', where he's voiced by [[Creator/BillFagerbakke Patrick Star]] himself.

* TheVoiceless: He doesn't speak at all in ''Legend'', with his only "dialouge" being read out loud by Tommy while reading the comic detailing Frosty's origin.
* WouldHurtAChild: Hinkle's desperation to reclaim Frosty's hat led him to ''willingly extinguish a fire that was keeping Karen warm'', just hours after Frosty had narrowly kept her from freezing to death.

->'''Voiced by:''' Jimmy Durante

->'''Voiced by:''' Andy Griffith

* CatchPhrase: "Happy birthday!" Said every time he comes to life, for no apparent reason. Even the rest of his species does the same thing.

* DeathGlare: Gives one to Pankley in ''Legend'' when he reveals what took him so long to get back to Evergreen.
* DemotedToExtra: Downplayed. In contrast to the original three specials, he isn't around as much in either ''Frosty Returns'' or ''The Legend of Frosty the Snowman,'' which primarily focuses on the children in said specials. That's not to say he doesn't have a big role, but those specials are not ones that have him as the main character.

* AbusiveMother: Sort of. His mother does care about him but she's not a particularly nurturing one. She can be quite strict and even domineering over him. This explains why Walter is so scared of her and why he is such NervousWreck with a lot of anxiety.

* TookALevelInDumbass: In the first four specials, Frosty [[CharacterDevelopment evolves]] from a simple-minded snowman to a smarter and more mature FamilyMan. For whatever reason, his portrayal in ''The Legend of Frosty The Snowman'' (his most recent film) is much closer to the simple-minded snowman he was in the original special, if not dumber.

* TookALevelInDumbass: In the first four specials, Frosty goes from a simple-minded snowman to a smarter and more mature FamilyMan. For whatever reason, his portrayal in ''The Legend of Frosty The Snowman'' (his most recent film) is much closer to the simple-minded snowman he was in the original special.

* BadassBaritone: When voiced by Creator/JohnGoodman and Creator/BillFagerbakke.

* BadassBaritone: His deep, gravely voice makes him the deepest sounding of the ''Frosty'' narrators.

->'''Voiced by:''' Jonathan Winters

Tommy's stuck-up older brother.

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: While he makes a non-speaking cameo appearance in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfFrostyTheSnowman'' (via a flashback), he's notably friendlier and not mean compared to the original special.

* TookALevelInDumbass: In the first four specials, Frosty goes from a simple-minded snowman to a more mature and smarter snowperson. Later specials show he was able to be a devoted FamilyMan and be an insightful friend. For whatever reason, his portrayal in ''The Legend of Frosty The Snowman'' (his most recent special) is much closer to the simple-minded snowman he was in the original.

* TookALevelInDumbass: In the first four specials, you see Frosty go from a simple-minded snowman to a more mature and smarter person (or snowperson) who is able to be a devoted FamilyMan and be insightful to his friends (like Holly in ''Frosty Returns''). For whatever reason, his portrayal in ''The Legend of Frosty The Snowman'' portrays him closer to the simple-minded snowman he was in the original special.

* TookALevelInDumbass: In the first four specials, you see Frosty go from a simple-minded snowman to a more mature and smarter person (or snowperson) who is able to be a devoted FamilyMan and be insightful to his friends (like Holly DeCarlo in ''Frosty Returns'').

* DemotedToExtra: In contrast to the original three specials, he isn't around as much in either ''Frosty Returns'' or ''The Legend of Frosty the Snowman,'' which primarily focuses on the children in said specials. That's not to say he doesn't have a pretty big role, but he doesn't have nearly as many scenes as they do.

* CryCute: She's just a little girl, and is left a sobbing mess when Santa finds her over Frosty's melted body.
