This franchise just keeps embarrassing itself more day by day...

they won't even let the clown have his smoking jacket

While I can understand the cigarette thing (as most seem to want to get rid of smoking depictions in media if it's not a period piece), the jacket/bathrobe feels like such a weird omission. Still odd as this is not a toy but more of a collectible for adults.

At least they're not going back and retouching the show itself to remove all cigarettes (and replacing them with walkie talkies).

Aw, the depression-robe being gone is just sad.

On the bright side, I did always want a more articulated version of the world-of-springfield figures even if I haven't seen any of these I especially want yet...

Mr Teeny lost his cigarette too but he looks more detailed. Oh and they added the jagged metal Krusty-O.

This as bad as when NASCAR was forced by Congress to get rid of the Winston name for the main cup series in the Early-2000’s.

Cigarettes exist and people smoke. Get over it.
