Have you noticed the Hawaiian Punch guy hasn't been around for awhile? Rumor has it that he was arrested for assault and slapped with a multi-million dollar lawsuit from that big-nosed fellow he's always slugging. Here's your chance to own the most violent advertising icon of all time. This Hawaiian Punch Talking Doll features Punchy himself. (yes, that's his name) The plush doll stands about 10-inches tall and comes in a display box. But best of all, when you press his belly, he says, "Hey, how 'bout a nice Hawaiian Punch?" Luckily, when you answer "Sure," you don't get punched in the kisser. Like the violent commercials themselves, the Hawaiian Punch Talking Doll is no longer manufactured. We suppose it's just another victim of political correctness. So until the day when violence returns to children's commercials, let this doll serve as a warm reminder of a simpler, less complicated era.
