Robyn Starling is one of the main characters in Tom and Jerry: The Movie. Her mother died (from an unknown cause of death) when she was only a baby, and her father was in Tibet, while she is staying at the house of her abusive "Aunt" Pristine Figg (actually her guardian instead of her aunt), her lawyer Lickboot, and her dog Ferdinand. She was voiced by Anndi McAfee.

Appearance

Robyn Starling is a beautiful eight-year-old girl, she has golden blonde hair with a red hairband, fair skin, pink lips and beautiful blue eyes. She wears a red shirt with white sleeves, white socks, blue and white shoes and light blue trousers.

Trivia

• Robyn Starling is based off Penny from Disney's The Rescuers (1977) and Anne-Marie from Don Bluth's All Dogs Go To Heaven (1989).

Reception

Despite the fact that Robyn's existence in Tom and Jerry's first movie appears to be nice to the formerly mute duo for that film, the character herself is widely panned by a wide part of the fandom - mainly due to the film having her upstaging Tom and Jerry, thus making Robyn one of the most unpopular Tom and Jerry characters. As a result, the Tom and Jerry filmography, including the classic shorts from 1940-1967, still places Tom and Jerry as the popular characters instead of Robyn in merchandise, thus explicitly dismissing her from canon.
