The McKenzie Brothers
Released in September 2000, the figures were based on the characters of SCTV and Strange Brew fame, Bob and Doug McKenzie. Originally portrayed by Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas, respectively. The figures were sold separately and each came with half of the diorama from the Great White North set. Each had a sound chip with famous lines from the film and various extras to complete the scene.
"These two hops hosers are best known as the stars of the cult classic movie "Strange Brew" and as members of the comedy show SCTV, Canada's answer to "Saturday Night Live." Beauty, eh? Bob and Doug McKenzie (played by Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas, respectively) are popular worldwide with fans of, in no particular order, beer, back bacon, doughnuts, beer, one-liners, Canadiana (that's like Americana only ... Canadian) and beer. The fully detailed and articulated Bob and Doug action figures are sold separately with a complement of extras, voice chips with signature sound phrases and half a diorama that assembles into a complete custom backdrop (with plenty o' suds) when the figures are put together."

Famous quotes containing the word brothers:
“The majority of the men of the North, and of the South and East and West, are not men of principle. If they vote, they do not send men to Congress on errands of humanity; but while their brothers and sisters are being scourged and hung for loving liberty,... it is the mismanagement of wood and iron and stone and gold which concerns them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
