Instead of a ‘Disney/Pixar’ character, i always considered the design of Anton Ego to be a loving nod to the works of Edward Gorey…

Please tell me there’s a sound chip featuring the famous soliloquy about criticism.

I get the magical image in my head of a sweet little kid playing house with her dolls. Anton gets to sit in the high chair as the little kid serves up various Easy-Bake Oven delicacies. The kid wishes her dolls could come to life so they could really *enjoy* her cooking…
Ooh, what a mistake.

just in case any one is interested in traking one of these down- Disney stores have the entire plush line on clearance right now. They are going for about $2 each if you can find them. I couldn’t resist, and bought the Gusteau to hang in my kitchen.

“Plush” and “Anton Ego” seem mutually exclusive to me.

I remember seeing practically a box full of Ratatouille plush dolls of characters people don’t want, Anton included, for like 99 cents each, and then an additional 40% off…

They’re all now finally gone…

Hey, as much as I like Anton Ego, it really surprises me they bothered to make a plush of him in the first place! No wonder it didn’t sell.

Okay, I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that Jerry’s rave over this plush was with his tongue imbedded deeply in his cheek. C’mon, people, wake up and smell the sarcasm!
