Bing Bing has come to you on this special moment of your life: below explains who he is: Bing Bong is Riley’s imaginary friend in Inside Out. He is a whimsical, elephant-like creature with a pink, fluffy body, a cat’s tail, and a trunk like an elephant’s. His design is a mix of different animals, reflecting the playful and creative nature of childhood imagination. He wears a patched-up brown jacket, striped gloves, and a tiny bowler hat. Bing Bong is cheerful, energetic, and deeply caring, especially toward Riley. He remembers the joy of their time together when she was younger and longs to be remembered. However, as Riley grows up, he fades away, symbolizing the bittersweet loss of childhood innocence. His most emotional moment comes when he sacrifices himself in the Memory Dump so that Joy can escape, ensuring Riley’s happiness even as he is forgotten.
