The Thang family (with their last name often abbreviated to T.) is the family of Jimmy T. who live in Diamond City, and appear in the WarioWare series of games. They enjoy dancing, and have even done choreographed dances all together. All members of the Thang family also have large colorful afros, red noses, and sunglasses.

James T.
James T.
  • Jimmy T. is the main member. He is the oldest child and the one with the most attention.
    He wears a round blue afro, a red vest, blue pointed shoes, and long white pants. He is shirtless so only his bare chest shows.
  • James T. is the brother of Jimmy. He is shorter and chubbier than his brother.
    He wears an orange afro, a blue vest, a white shirt, red pants and white pointed shoes. James is a self-proclaimed "chick magnet".
  • Jamie T. is Jimmy's sister. She has a dark pink afro in pigtails and unlike the rest of her family, her glasses are blue.
    She wears a pale yellow tank top with a shooting star with a rainbow pattern tail on it, a red skirt and white boots. She and Jimmy are the only ones with belts.
  • Papa T. is the father of the Thangs. He has a tall yellow afro, similar in appearance to Marge Simpson's hair.
    He wears a green long sleeve shirt, white pants and green shoes.
  • Mama T. is the Thang family's mother. It is likely that James gets his looks from his mother, as she is also short and chubby. She has a light pink afro.
    She wears a yellow sleeveless vest above a red long sleeve shirt, an apron, (Which says "MOM") short red jeans and a blue bracelet on her neck.

History

WarioWare: Twisted!

In WarioWare: Twisted!, Papa and Mama dance with Jimmy at Club Sugar. They later take their phones out and take pictures of him while ignoring their dinner. Sugar closes the club while the three are still inside. Later, Mama and Papa host the Family Scramble microgame set which feature microgames from Mona, Jimmy T., Kat, and Ana.

Mama and Papa make an appearance on the cover for Jimmy's Night.

WarioWare: Touched!

In WarioWare Touched!, Jimmy first invites Papa and Mama onto Club Sugar's dance floor. He then calls Jamie and James to do the same. Once they all get onto the dance floor, they dance together. When Scratchy the 'Fro Bug lands into Jimmy's afro and causes him to itch wildly, they continue dancing and think he is still dancing. They finish their dance routine by taking out their cell phones. During gameplay, the family gathers around Jimmy and look at his cell phone. If the player successfully completes a microgame, they all laugh. Failing a microgame causes the family to grimace. At the end of Jimmy's story, the family walks away from Club Sugar.

WarioWare Gold

While not reappearing in the game itself, they all have a quick cameo in Jimmy T.'s character trailer for WarioWare Gold.

WarioWare: Get It Together!

Like WarioWare Gold, while they don't appear in WarioWare: Get It Together!, the family has a cameo in one of the photos of Jimmy T.'s Gallery.
