Wallace is one of the two main protagonists of the Wallace and Gromit franchise, alongside with Gromit, his dog and best buddy. He is a seasoned innovator who adores cheese.
He was voiced by the late Peter Sallis from 1989 to 2010, and is currently voiced by Ben Whitehead. As the Were-Rabbit, his vocal sound effects were provided by Frank Welker.
His Good Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Good?[]
- He's a pretty good inventor and a great person.
- When he finds out he doesn't have any cheese, he travels to the moon to get it and takes Gromit with him. There he turns on a certain device, which turns out to be intelligent. Wallace also accidentally fulfils this sentient machine's dream of skiing.
- He gives Gromit a leash collar for his birthday, although Gromit is not happy about it.
- He is quite polite to his new penguin tenant, and when Wallace accidentally finds out that this penguin is a criminal, he and Gromit send him to the police.
- In the video game, Wallace & Gromit in Project Zoo, he and Gromit stop Feathers from killing many animals after he starts a riot at his prison.
- When he finds a little lamb at home, he decides to shelter it. He also gives the lamb the name Shaun (later this lamb will get his own spin-off).
- When Gromit receives a life sentence for stealing sheep that he didn't commit, Wallace breaks him out of prison and tries to find a way to catch the real culprit.
- He works with Gromit and Shaun to stop the robot dog Preston from turning sheep into dog food. He later reprograms Preston back to normal. He also saves Preston’s owner Wendolene Ramsbottom from having to be his reluctant accomplice in crimes.
- When Gromit tries to put him on the diet, Wallace accepts it, although he is one step away from a breakdown. He also thanks Gromit for helping him stay in shape.
- He and Gromit help the residents of their city to prepare to the vegetable festival and to catch all the rabbits.
- Also, unlike Quartermaine, Wallace never tries to kill the rabbits, mostly catching them in non-violent ways, despite having both a reason and an opportunity. This shows him as a nature-lover.
- While he does try to brainwash the rabbits, he does it only to do a good thing, as he doesn't want them to harm anyone.
- He does his best to stop the Were-Rabbit, not knowing that the Were-Rabbit is himself.
- During being the Were-Rabbit, he never tries to harm anyone.
- Realizing the it is HIM to be a Were-Rabbit, he does his best to stop it. Even after turning the Were-Rabbit, he tries to avoid unnessesary harm towards the people.
- When Gromit saves him from being shot to death by Victor, he repays it by saving Gromit from falling to death nearly at the cost of his own life. He does it even during still being the Were-Rabbit, which means that while he does have rabbit instincts, Wallace is still Wallace.
- He saves Lady Tottington from a forced marriage of convenience with Lord Victor Quartermaine.
- Also, unlike Victor, he likes Lady Tottington because who she is and not because of her money.
- While he acted a bit rudely to her when she came to tell him that Victor is going to kill the Were-Rabbit, it's understandable, as Wallace WAS that Were-Rabbit and he was turning into the Were-Rabbit at that moment and he didn't want Lady Tottington to see him like that.
- When he sees Victor to fight Lady Tottington, he prevents him and while he does forcibly take her in her garden, it's because he thought that she's in danger. Also, it's the one of Wallace's completely heroic actions done while being the Were-Rabbit, which once again indicates that even if Wallace is the Were-Rabbit, he's still Wallace.
- He saves Piella and her dog from being eaten by crocodiles.
- Even when he learns about Piella’s crimes, when the crocodiles finally eat her, he mourns her.
What Prevents Him From Being Pure Good?[]
- Though he usually has a good friendship with Gromit, he doesn't take his warnings seriously and can neglect him at times such as when he favored Feathers McGraw over him in The Wrong Trousers or when he didn't listen to Gromit about Piella's threat in A Matter of Loaf And Death.
