Question about Casey

aramconbrat · 04-06-2005, 01:33 AM

Just trying to find truth in a rumour. I heard, I guess it would be around fall of last year that Playmates had to rephrase the back of Casey Jones' card because a phrase or two were causing some complaints. The back of the first Casey Jones' read:

"Judge, jury and enforcer! That's Casey Jones and "Goon Gala" is his battle cry. Casey has a unique sense of what's right or wrong and you better be on the side of right or he'll slapshot you upside the head with his hockey stick. Casey loves reality TV because his own life is so unreal. After all his 4 best freinds are mutated 15-year old pet turtles who talk and are ninja masters."

I was led to believe by a few people that due to complaints from mothers, the lines "Judge, Jury and enforcer" and the line about him slapshoting you upside the head was going to be changed. I meant to check on later shipped versions of Casey but forgot and now cannot find them on shelves.

Anyone know if this is just rumor or if it is true? There was also the more exaggerated version that spoke of him getting pulled on account of those lines but I still run into one occasionally! Thanks!
