Balloony/Colin is a balloon Doofenshmirtz acquired as a child. He drew a realistic face on it and made it his companion.

BiographyEdit

Balloony was a ballon obtained at a carnival by Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz in his youth in Gimmelschtump. He then drew a face on it and sprayed it with a special lifelong lasting spray, and made it his best friend. However, it was lost one night when it floated away while Doofenshmirtz was doing his duty as the family lawn gnome, and an attempt by him to grab it was thwarted by his father.

Many years later, Doofenshmirtz attempted to recover Balloony using the Static Electro Amplif-Inator , and although this plan failed, he found Balloony aboard Mitch's poaching ship as one of the creatures he captured illegally. Mitch had renamed it "Colin" and called it his best friend. Heinz argues that Balloony was his best friend. Doofenshmirtz tells Balloony to come out of the ship with him, but Balloony didn't budge. This upsets the evil scientist and he says that Balloony has changed. He then says that his real best friend is actually Perry the Platypus. Just as he starts to say this aloud, Agent P jumps up and punches him backwards into the hole in the floor, causing him to fall to his doom. Perry then jumps out after Doofenshmirtz to save his nemesis. ("The Chronicles of Meap").

Balloony was later referenced when Doofenshmirtz won the Inator contest. His prize was a small red balloon, which he named Balloony 2 ("Robot Rodeo").

When Doofenshmirtz goes back to Mitch's ship later, he finds Balloony again, but this time wearing a Robo-Suit and wielding weapons, as well as commanding a group of Mitch's robots. Balloony at first tries to defeat Doofenshmirtz, but when Doofenshmirtz (along with Perry the Platypus and Peter the Panda ) is taken down by the robots, he pleads with Balloony who has a change of heart and defeats the robots. Doofenshmirtz is very happy, and begins to tell Balloony about all the good times they can have together again, till Balloony gets hit by a final shot from one of the fallen robots and dies (or pops) to Doofenshmirtz's extreme misery. Some time later, Perry enter's Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated where a miserable Doofenshmirtz tells him that he's got no scheme to be foiled as he was still down, only to realize that Perry had brought him Balloony newly inflated (with a band-aid) back to him, finally resolving the backstory. Doofensmirtz and Balloony then have a really good time together making up for all the time they were apart. ("Meapless in Seattle").

Background InformationEdit

The face on Balloony is slightly reminiscent of Bing Crosby [1] as depicted in the classic Tex Avery cartoon, Hollywood Steps Out (1941).[2]
In the Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension (video game), at the Balloon Dimension he can talk.
Balloony is seen in the background of the song Back in Gimmelshtump.
Balloony got popped in Meapless in Seattle but was later fixed by Perry the Platypus, who gave him a band-aid.
In Meapless in Seattle, Balloony seems to be alive and mobile. This may be explained by the mechanical suit he was inhabiting, which could possibly contain artificial intelligence as Mitch's does.
