Fanta Nasty?

 

It always amazes me how once-derided characters can make a come-back.

Here's Chucky, the homicidal doll from the notorious Child's Play movie, emblazoned on the front of a bottle of red Fanta.

Is it even appropriate? Child's Play isn't a kids film.

I wonder if the Good Guy dolls in the Chucky films were ever actually sold in toy shops at the time? There's tons now, customs and more! It might be hard to find an original.

From public pariah to fizzy pop cover, the world of marketing is indeed strange.

What do you think?

PS.

Having said all that I do think Chucky's face

 is remarkably similar to Andy from the Century 21 Candy and Andy comics and books!
