Captain Victorious: The best thing about being a superhero is all the merchandising deals I get. Ralston: Hey, us cartoon characters get merchandising deals, too. Captain Victorious: Not like I do! I get books, movies, TV shows... Ralston: Yeah, we get all those plus clothes, posters and cereal. Captain Victorious: Well do you have a video game? i have a video game. Ralston: Console or handheld? I've got both. Captain Victorious: Oh yeah? Well I have an action figure! You guys don't have action figures!! Ralston: I didn't have the heart to tell him... Hamhock: Mine "oinks" when you press his tummy.
Actually, I don’t remember seeing too many Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, etc. plush dolls, but tons of Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, etc. plush dolls in addition to the action figures. I think the anthromorphic cartoon characters end up with slightly more merchandising than the superhero characters.
