'''Trophy Thomas''' is a character from ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. He is a cutthroat cheetah and is described as an "overly-competitive braggart", who enjoys contests and challenges. During every challenge, if you complete it in the fastest time possible or by getting a very high score, you get a T.T. Trophy. When you earn four T.T. Trophies, Trophy Thomas gives you a Jiggy. He appears as a challenge host in [[Nutty Acres]] and the [[Jiggoseum]].
'''Trophy Thomas''', often shortened '''T.T.''', is a character in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''.


==Showdown Town==
==Personality==
T.T. stays by his house. There is a Jig-O-Vend near his house that give the Jiggies from the challenges. He also provides a shortcut to challenges by talking to him. He wears his normal Black shorts while he stays in town.
Trophy Thomas is an overly-competitive cheetah who often challenges Banjo and Kazooie to various races. He is also very arrogant and narcissistic, likely due to his many trophies and awards. He often barely admits defeat, regularly asking whoever won against him to not tell anyone else. According to [[Humba Wumba]] in [[L.O.G.'s Lost Challenges]], Trophy Thomas is also very afraid of horses.


==Nutty Acres==
==Biography==
Trophy Thomas appears as the farm mechanic for Mumbo's Nuts. He wears light blue denim shorts in this world. He doesn't do much work and is usually looking for someone to beat in a challenge. He actually complains when [[Humba Wumba|Humba]] tells him to do something. He hosts in Acts 2, 4, 5 and 6. He first races the bear and bird in order to prove his dominance, but loses (twice). He later tells you that [[Piddles]] is waiting to race. Then he makes you clog the leaky spouts. Finally he wants you to freewheel down the volcano. He seems to have a rivalry with [[Mr. Fit]], as the two are in the running for the Farmhand of the Year award.
In [[Showdown Town]], he is located in front of his house and, by interacting with him, all completed challenges can be repeated (with the main objective being to obtain the missing [[T.T. Trophy|T.T. Trophies]]).


==Jiggoseum==
In [[Nutty Acres]], T.T. plays "The Painfully Competitive Farm Mechanic." In Act 2, he hosts the challenge "Coconut Circuits," where he races [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] a few times. In Act 4, he hosts the challenge "Cheatin' Witch," where he asks for the duo to race [[Piddles]] for him as his "top racing tractor" was being repaired. In Act 5, he he hosts the challenge "Leaky Waterworks," where he asks the two to stop some pipes from leaking. In Act 6, he hosts the challenge "Freewheel Festival," where he asks them to keep driving for the longest time possible without having control of anything except steering.
T.T. acts as the world's best competitor as implied by the giant gold statue over the jump ramp. He proudly wears a gold medal and red and white shorts. He hosts mainly racing challenges in Acts 2, 3 and 6. He first challenges [[Banjo]] to a long-distance race around the track. Later he hosts a hurdle challenge. He then hosts a challenge involving a vehicle that runs with backwards controls. His rivalry with Mr. Fit is seen here as well. The two have different teams on the scoreboard and Fit appears as another racer in T.T.'s challenges.


==Personality==
In the [[Jiggoseum]], T.T. plays "The Multiple Record Holder." In Act 2, he hosts the challenge "Burnin' Rubber," where he races Banjo and Kazooie through the stadium. In Act 3, he hosts the challenge "A Load of Blocks," where he races the duo again through the same track as before, but with different obstacles. In Act 6, he hosts the challenge "Bear in a Ball," where the bear and bird need to drive around an obstacle-filled circuit with reversed controls.
Trophy Thomas is described in-game as a narcicisst. He is overly competitive and is quite arrogant and full of himself due to this. In fact, he can even come off as cruel. He hates to lose and will barely admit defeat. He seems to have a short fuse and violently stamps his foot when he loses.
