Samus Aran
Samus' Zero Suit was ranked by ScrewAttack as fourth on their 2010 list of the top 10 sexiest outfits in games on GameTrailers, while Sarah Warn of AfterEllen ranked Samus as the "tenth-hottest" female video game character. In 2011, GameFront featured her twice on the list of the "best boobs in video game history", at 40th spot for her reveal in the original game and at sixth place for her modern appearance in "a ridiculously form-fitting jumpsuit." That same year, Lisa Foiles of "The Escapist" ranked the Zero Suit Samus as number one "hottest blonde chick" in video games. In 2012, "Complex" ranked her as the "24th-hottest" video game character, also ranking her as the fourth-top "hot female killer" from video games, while Nixie Pixel from Revision3 placed Samus on top of her sexiest "game girls" list. In 2013, Steve Jenkins of CheatCodes.com declared Samus the "tenth-hottest video game girl" of all time. "Thanh Niên" ranked her as the tenth-most sexy female character in 2015, in particular for her Zero Suit.
Yosemite Sam
Other characters with Sam-like features appear in several "Looney Tunes" shorts. The Bugs Bunny entry "Super-Rabbit" (1943) features the cowboy character "Cottontail Smith", whose voice is nearly similar to Sam. "Stage Door Cartoon" (1944), however, features a southern sheriff character that looks and sounds similar to Sam, except for a more defined Southern stereotype to his voice. In a Daffy Duck cartoon called "Along Came Daffy" (1947), Daffy has to contend with "two" Yosemite Sams, one with Sam's red hair and one with black hair. Finally, "Pancho's Hideaway" (1964) features a Mexican villain who is designed much like Sam but has a different accent. In addition, in the 1949 Chuck Jones-directed cartoon "Mississippi Hare", Bugs Bunny battles with an old, pistol-toting gambler called Colonel Shuffle, one whose role could have easily been portrayed by Sam. (The Colonel reappears in "Dog Gone South", this time pitted against Charlie Dog, and accompanied by a bulldog named Belvedere, who resembles Hector the Bulldog).
