Donald Duck Vanquishes Mexico Soft Drink Lookalike

Whoa! I didn't realize there was this battle going on for this long.

Donald Duck has chased off a Mexican look-alike after a trademark dispute that simmered for decades between Disney and a beverage maker that copied the hot-headed cartoon character for its logo in 1940.

Pascual Boing, known in Mexico for tropical fruit drinks like mango and guayaba, is ditching its old logo based on Walt Disney Co.'s sailor-suited duck in favor of a rapper-style duck with spiky feathers and a blue baseball cap worn backward.


So that is now settled. Now about that copycat them park in China..... :)

Zz.
