Thirty/Thirty

Edit

Thirty/Thirty is a character and protagonist of the BraveStarr franchise.

An Equestroid, or 'Techno-Horse', he is best friends with Marshal BraveStarr. He is the last of his kind, just as BraveStarr is the last of The Tribe.

Character background[]

Thirty/Thirty was Marshal BraveStarr's talking "techno horse," who could "transform" from a quadruped into a more anthropomorphic biped. He carried a giant Kerium powered blunderbuss he referred to as "Sara Jane." He was the last survivor of an ancient civilization called the Equestroids, a cybernetic breed of sentient equines, and had strength approximating BraveStarr's bear strength.

Thirty/Thirty was hot-headed and usually preferred to jump into the battle and do some stomping and blasting with Sara Jane which led to vocal disagreements between him and BraveStarr about the use of force in the line of duty occasionally, but Thirty/Thirty still tried his best to do his duty in the best and safest way possible.

Behind the scenes[]

  • Thirty/Thirty was voiced by Ed Gilbert.
  • His look appeared to be loosely based on rock legend David Lee Roth.[citation needed]
  • Thirty/Thirty was named after a variety of Winchester rifle[1], or specifically a reference to the 30-30 Winchester cartridge made for the Winchester Model 1894 rifle.[2]
  • In the episode Balance of Power, Thunder Stick calls Thirty/Thirty a 'Mechanical Donkey' and thinks his name is "20/15 or something".

Quotes[3][]
