Mr. Stick is a slim, fair-skinned man with glasses, a bald head, and a comically large nose. He wears an orange suit and pants that visually looks like a jumpsuit over a white dress shirt and a black tie. He also sports a pair of long, black shoes, a pair of white gloves, and an orange fedora with a black strip on it.
As "Mr. Mooney", he wears a fake grey beard and mustache fastened onto his face with a string, an orange hat with with a black strip on it and the top of it popped open, and an orange blanket with a white patch draped over his body. He's also usually seen holding a tin can in his right hand.
He is not native to the tower, but asks Peppino for money to construct the boss gates. He's an inventor and a salesman who is always looking to make a profit.
Behavior
Mr. Stick is a shrewd businessman and will appear on the Hub near every boss gate. Mr. Stick requires an arbitrary amount of money from Peppino before they are allowed access to the boss gate, forcing the player to collect a certain amount of Toppins before being allowed to continue their quest. Despite taking advantage of Peppino in such a manner, he does seem to genuinely care about him, or, at the very least, his continued ability to give him money, guiding him to level exits during Pizza Time along with Gustavo.
After purchasing all 5 boss gates from Mr. Stick, a new character (who is actually Mr. Stick in a disguise trying to take away the player's remaining money) will appear next to the Pizzaface boss gate. This grey bearded character, Mr. Mooney, will ask the player for a little "charity", requesting the last $90 dollars the player can get. Once the money is given to Mooney, the player will unlock Mooney Orange.

He was first said to be Peppino's accountant, then later on his landlord. But in the final game, he has no previous relation to Peppino whatsoever.
According to McPig, Mr. Stick's first name is Scott.
Mr. Stick's original name was Mr. Stiff, but was changed for sounding too much like a phallic innuendo.
McPig has gone on record to say that Mr. Stick was a character before Pizza Tower, and is probably his second most drawn character. Peppino was the fifth.
McPig has talked about an idea for a Mr Stick centered game. It would be a puzzle platformer about his daily life in his apartment complex where he has to deal with the supernatural.
He has a friend named Burton that never appeared in Pizza Tower but does appear in a lot of McPig's earlier as well as more recent sketches.
Mr. Stick bears more than a passing resemblance to Wes Weasley, a character from the 1993 television series Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, based on the Sonic the Hedgehog series of video games. Both are bald, skinny, humanoid salesmen dawning glasses, orange suits, and fedoras.
Though this hasn’t been officially confirmed by McPig himself, this would not be the only reference to Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, as one of Peppino's taunts is a reference to a frame of Dr. Robotnik holding a diploma.
Several assets possibly relating to Stickland were found in the files of the Halloween update, indicating that the level was revisited during the development of the update.
#1: Burton: "You see Mr. Stiff, we're going to jump off the top of this little hill and like I said we're going to land at the exact same time. Our weight difference doesn't change the speed at which we fall." Mr. Stiff: "Doing such demonstration is ridiculous. It's a waste of time." Burton: "Come on, Mr. Stiff." Mr. Stiff: "I keep my position! You'll land first and you'll feel embarrassed."
#2: Burton: "There's no embarrassment. We're simply jumping from a small hill." Mr. Stiff: "Wait! Before we start I'll check that nobody is watching us." Burton: "Exasperating..."
#3: Mr. Stiff: "Of course, I know he's right but I defended my position so much... I can't back-peddle now! That would be absolutely embarrassing! I have installed a propeller helmet under my hat. When I pull that string, I'll get a bit of momentum in the air and land right after!"
#4: Burton: Ready? Mr. Stiff: Ready!
A creature, resembling Mr. Stick, appears in the upcoming indie game GIMMIKO.[2]
