Runaway Brain: Mickey Mouse

Mickey Mouse is generally known as a jovial sort of rodent with a sunny disposition and a squeaky voice. Things weren't so in the "Runaway Brain" 7-minute movie where a misguided doctor named Frankenollie exchanged Mickey's brain with the crazed brain of a monster named Julius.

The Runaway Brain Mickey vinyl figure from Medicom was originally released in the spring of 2005 but a new production has been announced to ship in mid-late December 2006. Mickey sports bloodshot eyes and clenches the ground with his mitts as if his life depended on it. The snarling and vicious demeanor won't win him any congeniality awards. Runaway Brain Mickey measures 15cm or 5.90" in length and is packaged in a blue card box box with window for easy viewing of the monster within. Preorders are welcome to ship in December at JPY4800 or US$49 from NCS.
