The story behind the new Bazooka Joe: http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2006/06/19/060619ta_talk_rosenwald#Replay

“We had passed from being quaint, cozy humor to being your grandpa’s joke,” Cherrie, a forty-three-year-old Canadian with a penchant for bright-colored shirts, said recently in the Topps boardroom, on Whitehall Street. A big part of the problem was Joe. “He was a little dweeb,” Cherrie said.

Cherrie set out to spruce up Joe’s appearance and to surround him with a new group of friends. For inspiration, Topps sent researchers all over the country to quiz focus groups of children who were “claimed bubble-gum users,” as Cherrie put it. The kids were asked, “If Bazooka Joe was in a TV show, what would he be like?”

“The guy who came up again and again was the guy from ‘That 70’s Show,’ ” Cherrie said. “What’s his name again? Kutchermare? The tall guy, dark hair.”

Ashton Kutcher? “Right. Kind of goofy but lovable. Fun. Free-spirited. That was the approach we took.”

So Joe, who began life fifty-three years ago as a crewcut boy with an eye patch, sprouted a few inches. His blond hair grew out and became fashionably tousled. He kept the eye patch but started wearing his cap backward. To keep him company, Topps artists developed five new sidekicks, including an excitable German named Wolfgang Spreckels. “We want Joe to be beyond this Americancentric guy,” Cherrie said. “We have aspirations for him to find his way across the world. What better way to accomplish that than with an exchange student?”

Finally, a Bazooka Joe movie is in the works: http://movies.ign.com/articles/985/985941p1.html

I didn't change anything... Take a look at my post and you'll see I've made no edits.
