What would be fun for me would be finding a talking Yogi Bear doll that would say "I'm smarter than the average bear!"

[@davaotripsters]

Fun facts: Both Mel Blanc and Grace Stafford-Lantz are the original voices of Woody Woodpecker. Since Mel Blanc's famous Guess who and laugh line of Woody Woodpecker is the original while the secondary laugh of Woody Woodpecker provided by Grace Stafford-Lantz.

In between Blanc and Stafford-Lantz were a slew of other voice actor trying their best to fill the dearth. Danny Webb played him in Pantry Panic, Kent Rogers played him for the next five cartoons, and Dick Nelson played him in Ration Bored. Finally, it was decided that the bird would be played by his co-creator and writer, Joseph Benson "Ben" "Bugs" Hardaway. Hardaway played him until Walter Lantz shutdown his studio in 1948 due to bankruptcy. It was after Lantz reopened that Stafford-Lantz took over.

Grace Lantz may've done the voicework for this commercial, but the Woody Woodpecker puppets' voice was actually provided by Mel Blanc reprising the role! Wow!

[@christianpeligrinocagadas9781]

And Mel Blanc was the original voice of Woody Woodpecker in the first 3 shorts from 1940 to 1941, especially the trademarked catchphrase, Guess Who (with Woody Woodpecker laughs, which he previously used in Bugs Bunny's prototype named Happy Rabbit in Merrie Melodies shorts).

[@thomasplouffe326]

I learned this, they made those puppets when they had too many voice boxes and heads for the actual dolls
