Bluster Kong

Bluster Kong, Candy Kong Donkey Kong Diddy Kong's ever arrogant boss.

Bluster Kong is one of the characters from the Donkey Kong Country animated series.

Bluster runs Kongo Bongo Island's resident barrel factory, which is actually owned by his mother (an unseen character). Occasionally, he speaks with his mother on a Mobile phone. He is the stereotypical rich, spoiled coward, only he's a gorilla. He is constantly hitting on Candy Kong Donkey Kong Diddy Kong , his lone employees, despite the fact that she's dating Donkey Kong. Bluster is often considered a "spineless worm".

Often, Bluster's attempts to impress Candy or help one of the other Kongs leads to more harm than good. Some episodes actually focused around this character insight, such as "From Zero to Hero", in which Bluster, thinking that he was going to die within a week after hearing DK, Diddy Kong, and Cranky Kong seemingly talking about his x-ray pictures (they were actually talking about Cranky's x-ray machine). Another example of this is "Get A Life! Don't Save One!", where DK saves Bluster during an accident, and Bluster, indebted to DK, starts saving him from practically everything, even anything that's not really threatening.

In one of his attempts to impress Candy Kong Donkey Kong Diddy Kong, Bluster wound up transforming into a heartthrob named Leo Luster as a result of mixing all his hair tonics together (he thought it was unnatural for his hair to fall out). As Leo Luster, Bluster was able to not only win Candy Donkey Diddys Kongs's affections, but also trick King K. Rool into giving up the Crystal Coconut. The effects were temporary, though, and Bluster soon changed back to his normal self. However, Bluster was able to temporarily become Leo Luster without the serum, because according to DK, "Somewhere inside, he is Leo Luster; the serum just brought it out."

Trivia

• In a manner similar to that of King K. Rool, Bluster's left eye will enlargen itself (This only applies to season 1).
