25. Mudman (World Heroes 2)
It's one thing for a spiritual character to carry around a tiki mask. But to react as if the tiki mask was a part of his body? Mudman does just that, with eyes bulging out of the mask every time he's hit. To his credit, though, he's got a very cool spin attack.

24. Shaky Jake (Way of the Warrior)
Shaky Jake is a good ol' boy -- if by good ol' boy you mean someone that dresses like a second-rate cowboy and has a habit of blowing whiskey-fueled fire at his opponents. We wouldn't be surprised if we caught him raising hell down at the local watering hole.

23. Psyclown (Bio F.R.E.A.K.S.)
Psyclown takes the pie as top weirdo in Midway's 3-D fighter. Not only is he effective in combat with his gigantic mallet and brutal strength, but he's also a true fighting clown, unlike Doink from the WWE Wrestlemania arcade game

22. Oro (Street Fighter III)
What exactly is Oro? All we can tell you is a.) He sleeps in a cocoon until you wake him up for a fight, b.) He's missing an arm for some unknown reason, c.) He's remarkably agile for jumping attacks and d.) He throws energy balls from God knows where.

21. Hornet (Fighters Megamix)
Sega's Daytona USA car can do a lot more than drive around in circles. In Fighters Megamix, players can unlock the car as a kick-butt fighting machine, revving opponents under its tires and then celebrating without a victory lap.

20. Sasquatch (Darkstalkers)
He's the closest thing we'll ever see to a Bigfoot-esque character in a fighting game, so we'll happily list Sasquatch among the other weirdos. He has tremendous jaw power to chew opponents and uses ice to his advantage

19. Mokujin (Tekken series)
First, is Mokujin a he or a she? Secondly, what's up with the flower on its head? No matter -- this fighter's will is as strong as oak -- probably because it is oak.

18. Shun Di (Virtua Fighter 2)
Shaky Jake, move over. Our favorite drunk fighter is Virtua Fighter 2's crazy old Shun Di. How cool is this guy? Every time he takes a swig from his bottle, he learns an insane new move. Don't send him to a bar or he might use that drunken Kung Fu on you.

17. Tron Bonne (Marvel Vs. Capcom 2)
OK, she made a name for herself in the Mega Man series roaming around in a robot, while commanding a small army of Servbots to do her bidding. On top of that, her super move is nothing more than a call for the dinner bell, with hundreds of Servbots storming the line. Strange? Yep.

16. Boogerman (Clay Fighter 63 1/3)
There's nothing like good ol' Boogerman. He flicks boogers and farts on opponents, all while wearing his homemade cape and tight green suit. Still, considering how bad this Clay Fighter game is, you're better off playing his original game, pictured above.

15. Norimaro (Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter)
Modeled after Japanese comedian Noritake Kinaashi, Norimaro is a nerdy character who appears in the Sega Saturn edition of Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter. He throws plush animals as projectiles and jumps on opponents to get their autograph. Don't bother looking for him in the U.S. version -- Capcom's American division sadly removed him.

14. Choi Bounge (King of Fighters)
Combine Verne Troyer with Freddy Krueger, and you get Choi Bounge. This agile little guy bounces around the screen almost uncontrollably, spinning in whirlwind attacks and jumping on opponents to stab them. He's a great, if strange, addition to any KOF team.

13. I-No (Guilty Gear)
As hot as she may be, we couldn't help but mention I-No. She's a rock and roll witch, wearing a tight leather outfit that barely covers her assets and she carries a guitar that comes in handy during thrashing attacks. Best of all, after winning certain matches, she removes her top. That's not routine for a Halloween costume, but it's quite a reward in the game.
12. Rufus (Street Fighter IV)
Out of Street Fighter IV's newest additions, Rufus qualifies as the strangest. His outfit makes him look like a lemon, he's surprisingly fast considering for a big guy and he has a penchant for eating buckets of fried chicken – not during a fight, of course. We'll have to see how he fares against E. Honda when the game arrives later this year.

11. Amingo (Marvel vs. Capcom 2)
At first glance, Amingo could be easily confused as an environmental fighter. After all, he resembles a cactus, able to blow up spikes from inside his body and summon smaller cacti to attack opponents. Still, we think he's fighting for more festive purposes, rather than for Greenpeace.
