Big Tex Arkana

Tex Arkana Sr (also known as Big Tex Arkana or simply Big Tex) is one of the antagonists in the Netflix stop-motion series. He is the father of Tex Jr and owner of the Gold Brick Pawn shop. His plan is to let Buddy lose a truck race and sell Thunderstruck Trucking by thinking up ways to make his son win, even if it means to cheat.

Why He Should Get Sued And Arrested By Sheriff Cannonball

 * 1) To start off the list, He is often notable for being Buddy Thunderstruck's actual rip-off of Mr. Krabs from SpongeBob SquarePants and Moneybags from the Spyro the Dragon series to the point where he could easily compared to these two characters. The three are stereotypical villainous, greedy, money-obsessing business animal men, the three treat the titular protagonists (SpongeBob, Spyro, Buddy Thunderstruck and Darnell Fetzervalve) like crap, owns businesses for money, the three are cash cow lairs, the three often violate workers rights and do illegal stuff in media they appeared in, the differences is that Mr. Krabs and Big Tex are single fathers with one child (Pearl Krabs and Tex Arkana Jr.) while Moneybags is married and have two sons, and Big Tex and Moneybags both turned down their greediness in later media of their respective franchises unlike Mr. Krabs who possibly stayed the same as his flanderization.
 * 2) He sometimes got off Scott free despite his illegal actions as seen in earlier episodes, examples are hiring Jacko to make everybody hate Buddy (which he doesn't look anything like him) by insulting everyone in town and shifting the entire blame on the real Buddy (who is innocent by the way) in Buddy Double, teamed up with Jacko again along with Robby Burgles and Artichoke to steal Buddy's driving secrets in Thunderstruck Rab Cab, hiring Moneybags to take his son, Tex Jr to reveal Buddy's identity without any money to pay him in "Moneybags and his Monster" (which is infamous for its Modern-tard propaganda live-action ending and the whitewashing cast choice of Tex Jr's live action appearance) and thinks that the things that Robby stole were "his" in "Get the Hock Out", the former two of which just so that Tex Jr would become more popular than Buddy in truck racing and get his own trophy.
 * 3) * Speaking of Get the Hock Out, he's infamous for having two repo methods that are illegal (for threating and stealing) as well as being at his worst out of all the earlier segments where he's in his greedy mode to the point where it made Big Tex the least likable Gresepit citizen in the entire show where he illegality hired Buddy (who already has a job as a truck racer) and Darnell for free just to trick them into scamming and stealing other people's things so that they can get their stuff back from him which shows how he's a huge spoiled bully he is to the other people who got their stuff from his pawn shop, after Buddy realized that Muncie was right about stealing other people's things and made bad deals with him are against the law and told him to give everybody's stuff, what does Big Tex do? he refuses to take the Thunderstruck cousins' criticism over him and the stuff that the main duo have stole until Artichoke, the "Sheriff Cannonball" of this episode, arrived for his stolen bike. This was his most infamous moment in the series.
 * 4) *Speaking of that moment, he never got arrested by Sheriff Cannonball or lose more money from his pawn shop dealing with lawsuits from Thunderstruck Trucking and other people who got their stuff stolen despite him breaking a few illegal laws and that Buddy and Darnell, race sponsors for Thunderstruck Trucking were involved in.
 * 5) The infamous scene where he laughs evilly while showing montages of Buddy and Darnell stealing a shovel, a computer, Mama Possum's underwear, the Beavers' hairdryer, Leroy's footstool and armchair and many other things (including Handsome Joe's car) from other people while Big Tex appears in the sky while turning to hellish red and he stopped laughing with creepy eyes like a hairy boar demon which shows how monstrous and greedy he is.
 * 6) He's shown to be a huge hypocrite as seen in "Buddy Double", when Tex Jr lost the truck race, Big Tex took it too seriously by yelling "Fart Nugget! I hate me some Buddy Thunderstruck" yet he talks and made deals to the same guy who is his son's rival in later episodes of the show.
 * 7) *Also in Buddy Double, he realizes that Tex Jr is the "New Cat's Pajamas" only because of him taking the lead in a truck race before Buddy arrived late and just of him to win the cash money along with the trophy without even noticing that Tex Jr has the most unluckiest race number which cause his truck to fall apart and lose the race and being the most hated out of all the six racers which shows his hypocrisy side yet again.
 * 8) He's also known for using his son Tex Jr. to lie about his lucky number and making him his cash cow since he made terrible and even false advertisements of him with his "lucky" 13 number just so that he can overshadow Buddy Thunderstruck in which most Figure 8 fans were very interested to see the race just for him winning and not Tex Jr including the billboard in which Big Tex made to prove his son's "good luck" in the episode "Buddy Double".
 * 9) He was so stereotypically greedy and heartless that even Muncie (who brought the tables and chairs from the pawnshop for the Concho Bolo) pointed the repo men part out and even have good reasons to why she criticizes Big Tex for being a huge spoiled bully to other people who got their stuff from his pawn shop and made bad deals with his repo men.
 * 10) He only cares about wanting Tex Jr to win a truck race so that he can steal Thunderstruck Trucking rather than celebrating Buddy's endless winning streak.
 * 11) He treats Jacko Valtrades, Robby Burgles, Artichoke (in Thunderstruck Rab Cab), Buddy Thunderstruck and Darnell Fetzervalve (in Get the Hock Out) and even his own son, Tex Jr (in Hit and Dumb) like slaves instead of employees. Even to the point of the former 3 being forced to steal Buddy's driving secrets when he become a taxi driver, Buddy and Darnell being teach how to be repo-men instead of firing them after they spend the evening at the Weaselbrats' hot tub when they're supposed to steal it and told his son to go home after he slept though the pawnshop's night shift.
 * 12) While Harry Chaskin does a fine job voicing him, his lines and evil laugh in Get the Hock Out can be very laughable due to the poor writing of the aforementioned episode, especially the "Ha! Over my dead... Body?" line when he's still alive and well in most of the series.
 * 13) Much like Mr. Krabs, He broke the law and violated workers rights countless times, like he once hired Buddy and Darnell to work for him despite them having no money to pay him (as mentioned above).
 * 14) * Speaking of workers rights, He runs a pawnshop with criminals, thieves and under paid employees that hardly work for any wage unlike Muncie, Leroy and even the Beavers who at least gave a good amount of pay to their hardworking employees at the Concho Bolo, Zeils' Truck Shop (the latter of which has a good reason to fire Cannonball in Cannonballistic) and Beaver Dam Fast Pizza (which is out of business and the owners are now employees of the Concho Bolo) and don't hire criminals or thieves unlike Big Tex.
 * 15) In Babysitters Yo, he went on a trip (which was never seen) without noticing that Tex Jr is in charge of his house before he got locked out and sleep in the Arkanas' dumpster until Buddy and Darnell babysits him until Big Tex picks him up at Buddy's garage which shows how stupid he is despite turning down his greediest in "The Sneezing Fits of Death".
 * 16) His character became even more greedier in Get the Hock Out and Thunderstruck Rab Cab.
 * 17) He never even hired an better mechanic like Darnell to fix Tex Jr's truck in every race he's been in which resulted in his truck being destroyed in some races he's been in unlike Buddy who already has Darnell (who is an mechanic by the way) to fix his truck when part of the Rabble Rouser fall apart, also in "Thunderstruck Rab Cab", He lets Buddy teach Tex Jr fake driving lessons as revenge for stealing his driving secrets and wrecking part of his truck while Darnell possibly work for Big Tex into fixing the Rabble Rouser for him.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) At least he got better since "The Sneezing Fits of Death" after Tex Jr. become friends with Buddy and Darnell.
 * 2) He become less greedier and cruel to Buddy and Darnell than earlier episodes and mostly shows compassion for his son, Tex Jr.
 * 3) His boar design is decent.
 * 4) Harry Chaskin is still great voicing Big Tex.
 * 5) He is a decently funny character at times, especially in later episodes.
 * 6) The idea of a boar running a pawn shop is still interesting along with the show's idea.
 * 7) He got some karma from Artichoke along with Buddy and Darnell for stealing his motorcycle mistaking it for a chopper in Get the Hock Out, though this isn't enough to remove him from the Karma Houdini party.
 * 8) YOU WERE SUPPOSSED TO BRING ME THAT HOT TUB (Get the Hock Out).
