PRODUCT HISTORY
Premiered: 2007 Edition: Sold out / Discontinued / Will not be reissued
INFAMY, INFAMY... They've all got it in for me!
Every license we have obtained as a company over 25 years was because we were huge fans of the show or films. I am a huge Carry-On fan, and one day decided what the world needed was a range of 12inch Talking Carry On figures!.............How wrong I was.
By far the most financially disastrous investment we have ever made producing 5000 Talking Keneth Williams dolls at a cost of £40K, we sold about 300 with the reminder going to sell off company TK Maxx.
The idea was to produce further characters from the films, but this ultimately did not happen due to the poor response to the first release.
It was a wonderful time however for a Carry-On fan, indulging in research at Pinewood Studios, liaising with actors' estates and many lunches at Pinewood with producer Peter Rogers.
What a juicy looking pear! You took the words right out of my mouth! Phnarrrrr, giggle.
