[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:The Bugaloos]]

A pop group made of attractive, British, flower-powered pixie-like humanoid insects and their more insectoid firefly friend.

A Grasshopper (lead vocals, guitar).

* {{Bookworm}}: Bordering on BadassBookworm (considering all the adventures he gets into).

* TheDandy: He's quite a snappy dresser.

* GuileHero
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
* LittleBitBeastly: More like a winged pixie a la Tinkerbell than an insect.
* {{Prettyboy}}: Quite a handsome guy.

A Ladybug (vocals/drums)

* ShesGotLegs: In spades.
