"I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today"
In 2004 Mezco Toyz released a brilliant line of action figures based on the Popeye the Sailor Man cartoons. This line featured brilliant sculpts and accessories as well as cartoon accurate color schemes, This was one of the best action figure lines of all time.
Wimpy, was generally the straight (but often lazy and scamming) man to Popeye's over the top hero. Wimpy also had a love of burgers almost as big as my own. Wimpy came packed with burgers to hold in his hand, as well as a full plate of burger goodness. Also packed with Wimpy was the magical dog Jeep. Jeep was a gift from Popeye to Olive Oyl, and one of my favorite animated characters growing up. This figure perfectly captures the simplicity of the Jeep' look in the classic Max Fleischer cartoons.
