Chuck Thorndyke



Chuck Thorndyke is a character from Sonic X. He is the paternal grandfather of Chris Thorndyke. He is a scientist and inventor. He always is helping Chris, Sonic and the gang out whenever they need help. He is 165 cm tall, weighs 60 kg, and is 55 years old. Chuck is voiced by Bin Shimada in Japan and Jerry Lobozzo in the English dub.

Much in the same way that Chris bonds with Sonic the Hedgehog during the latter's stay with the family, and the maid Ella bonds with Cream the Rabbit, Chuck forms a close friendship with Tails, who shares his love of inventing.

Many fans believe his name is a reference to the "SatAM" and "Archie" Sonic continuities as his nickname "Chuck" and his full name "Charles" are shared by "SatAM" and "Archie" Sonic's uncle, Uncle Chuck.

He bears an uncanny resemblance to Dr. Emmett Brown of the Back to the Future films.
