He also wears a cream colored hat and has black hair most likely an Afro. In "Coming Together" Ricky wore long black jeans, a red and white striped shirt, and red sneakers. He also wore a white baseball cap.

In "[[Dancing Fools]]", his appearance changed again. His brown complexion became lighter compared to his previous appearances although his hair color remained the same. He wore a gray shirt with a darker shades of gray on the shirt and what appeared to be beige khakis from what seen.

He appeared again as part of the singing chorus in "[[Arthur's Almost Live Not Real Music Festival]]" during the Library Song when all the kids are gathered together.

He had an unexplained cameo in "[[Arthur vs. the Very Mean Crossing Guard]]" where he rides his bike in front of the school. It's possible he goes to another school in [[Elwood City]] possibly [[Mighty Mountain Elementary School]].

He made another appearance in the ''[[Postcards from Buster |Postcards from Buster]]'' episode, "[[Coming Together]]", where he was seen with his [[Unknown Female Aardvark (Number 2)|little sister]] as they were standing outside a shop that sold sweets. He appeared again in "[[Dancing Fools]]", where he was attending the same dance class [[Francine Frensky|Francine]], [[Muffy Crosswire|Muffy]], and pretty much several of the students from Lakewood were in. He also didn't speak in this episode either.
