20X6
The Cheat
Spaceship The Cheat, apparently

20X6 The Cheat first appears in the Scrolling Shooter Games Menu. If you pick up the The Cheat-textured "C" pill, your ship becomes a The Cheat-styled fighter, and the game-describing avatar becomes the 20X6 version of The Cheat. He bears a resemblance to The Cheat from an Easter egg in 2 years and lady fan.

In the DVD commentary for "japanese cartoon", The Brothers Chaps point out that the spaceship seen in the email was originally going to be the 20X6 The Cheat, and agree that maybe they should still use it as the 20X6 The Cheat. This may be a reference to Tenchi Muyo's Ryo-Ohki, a cabbit that could turn into a spaceship.

What's unusual about 20X6 The Cheat is that he breaks one of Strong Bad's rules of Japanese cartoons where the mouth is "tiny when it's closed, ridiculously huge when it's open." (see japanese cartoon).
