Time to take a little looksee...AT MY GOLD! Heehee!
― Toothpick to himself
Toothpick was a villain in Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. He was one of Cyrille Le Paradox's lieutenants, and was sent to the Wild West. He planned on stealing gold from that time period and bringing it back to the present, making himself a billionaire. He was the main antagonist of Episode 2: Go West, Young Raccoon of Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time.
Background
He was originally an Eastern European mobster who grew up loving cowboy movies and gold, so he specialized in gold robberies. He was even behind some of the world's greatest gold heists.
Le Paradox hired him to take out "Tennessee Kid" Cooper, so Toothpick staged a robbery (which would later go down in history as Tennessee's greatest heist) and framed Tennessee for it, despite the robbery taking place after Tennessee was arrested. Toothpick has an obsession with gold. He planned on mining all of the gold out of Cotton Mouth Bluff and bringing it back to the present day to become rich. He was eventually stopped by the Cooper Gang, when Sly defeated him. After being defeated, Toothpick fell into the train's furnace, and he was blasted out to Tennessee, where Tennessee threw him off the train. Toothpick was stranded in the Wild West, where he was sentenced to working on the train railroads with a chain gang. The sound of train whistles made him go deaf, and he was run over by an oncoming train which he didn't hear coming.
Personality
Toothpick is an insane and a trigger-happy armadillo, shown when he threatened to rip off Sly's hand after his poster vandalism. He is also an ego-maniac, plastering the town with posters of himself and dedicating festivals in his own honor, probably he had no patience for the townspeople to throw an appreciation festival after a few years of Toothpick's job. He has an extreme temper, and when it's peaked, he can grow into a gigantic size. Despite everything he had as a wild and trigger-satisfy armadillo, Toothpick only had one particular weakness from hearing; he couldn't stand loud noises, particularly whistles, which aggravates his sensitive ears that he's unable to plug them from.
Powers and Abilities
Toothpick is an excellent shot and is skilled with a variety of firearms, making him very dangerous right off the bat. He also has the ability to grow to a massive size when he becomes extremely enraged which allows him to create shockwaves by slaming the ground and create tornadoes by spinning and using his cowboy hat. When he gets dizzy, Toothpick shrinks into normal size before he might become vulnerable to be attacked.
Guards
| Animal | Type of Guard | Weapon | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bad Bulls | Flashlight Guards | Minigun | They're armed with a minigun, dealing little damage but continous fire. They also have several close combat attacks. They are usually found in Tenessee Kid's missions, where you have to duel them. |
| Crazy Coyotes | Rooftop Guards | Dual revolvers | They're armed with 2 revolvers, and several close combat attacks. |
| Jumbling Jackalopes | Rooftop Guards | Dynamite sticks | Armed with dynamites, these guys are tough and annoying when encountered in large numbers. |

Trivia
- Toothpick hates only one thing concerning the Wild West - the loud sound of train whistles, which hurt his sensitive ears.
- It is revealed at the end of the game that Toothpick was eventually sentenced to working in a chain gang set to work on the railroads. The constant sound of train whistles would eventually cause him to go deaf.
- Upon going deaf, Toothpick (unknowingly) stepped into the path of an oncoming train, which killed him.
- Apparently, Toothpick had a fondness for lollipops; however, his favorite was a Cuban variety, which had to take weeks for them to be shipped. Supposedly, they taste like rice and beans.
- Toothpick is the only member of Le Paradox's crew that eventually died. He is also one of only two minor villains in the series to die, the other being Captain LeFwee.
- He is also the only member who became permanently stranded in the past.
