This beagle is the leader of The Banana Splits. He plays the guitar and often sings too. He does magic tricks, and he is the spokesman for the group. Cool, authoritative, and usually in control of every situation, Fleegle is always slightly frustrated by the behavior of the others. Although he's a born leader and organizer, he is not as bright as he thinks.

-->Voiced by: Creator/EricBauza
This gorilla plays the drums and often sings. He is simple and good-natured.

-->Voiced by: Creator/EricBauza
This lion is the bassist for The Banana Splits and often sings. He delights in fast-talking the others, especially Bingo, knowing that it confuses the big fellow. Drooper is the ultra-hip hippie of the Splits who is always on, always cool, and always trying to con someone.

This voiceless elephant is the Banana Splits' keyboardist. He is always late, seldom does anything right, and gets blamed for absolutely everything, even when he's innocent.
