This guy was in the CBS Saturday Morning bumpers in the early 90s and a Canadian 7-Up commercial. Also connected to Pepper Ann and KND

>>152344576So which one aired in Canada?
>>152346731prolly a good chunk o'them; ithink you can tell when it's canadian bradcast by the tagline: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6zMOcVMLgM&
Want he used for Fruitopia, too? If not, then idky I associate him with Fruitopia.
>>152341552He's technically public domain. Same with Arnold and Doug. None of them had properly registered first appearances.
>>152346963no, that's a coke productfido's a pepsico t'ing
>>152347105huh rly?that does explain the bootleg merch i sometimes find on ebay
>>152347105>>152348020That depends on when he was first created. If he was created before 1989 and they never bothered to copyright him then it's possible he's public domain. But if they copyrighted his first appearance within like five years then he'd be copyrightedIf he was created after 1989 then he'd still be copyrighted regardless whether they registered or not
>>152341552hey its the guy on the string cheese or whatever. gogurt? but his hair thoiunno. doug funnie but dairy instead of diary
>>152348265Not the same
This is a Cool Spot board.

>>152348986So Fido will just whore himself out to any old soda? He'd even shill for shit like Slice? Where's your dignity man
....stuck in the 90s like slice itself was
>>152346185Love me some 7UP
>>152348321Wrong. This is Hawaiian Punch turf.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cvNhej23CU
>>152350174ngl it’s kinda crazy how long they kept that rod-scribner-ass design
I have a fido dido pen holder I won from my older brother.
>>152341552>Fido That's a dog's name
>>152341552I didn't know that. I had a shirt with him on it when I was like a toddler.
>>152348054Dido - 1985Arnold - 1988Doug - 1988Seems like Dido got pulled off the PDSH wiki but I saw alot of people pointing to a potential registry error.>>152348020Maybe the copyright holders just dont care about him? Wouldnt be the first time an ad mascot's been abandoned. The General Mills monsters are all PD for instance.
>>152346787The way he tears off and slams the logo into place>do you always get what you want>inserts the word that he's sexyChad moves.
>>152347105>>152348054First I heard of this. Why is the year 1989 so significant?>>152352379PDSH wiki? What's that.
>>152346963>>152347182He was the mascot for the original versions of Slice, which were fruit sodas so that's probably where I'm getting my wires crossed with Fruitopia.Now, Slice is a "health" soda lmao
>>152353644Yeah. My local health food store has it
>>152355018>slice is revived>nobody has attempted to revive sierra mistThat name alone is a good enough reason
>>152355319They lost the SM name to a stripper
>>152353581Copyright law revisionsPublic Domain Super Hero wiki. It's been adapted into an outright catalog of PD resources in recent years.
>>152353644>He was the mascot for the original versions of Slice, which were fruit sodas so that's probably where I'm getting my wires crossed with Fruitopia.Pepsi used Fido for Slice since they didn't have distribution rights for 7UP in the US; I think the Slice ads are mostly just 7UP ads with the cans switched out and onscreen text/dialogue altered to match. That's why Cool Spot existed since the US version of 7UP needed a different mascot.
>>152356679ye pepsi owned 7up internationally while an equity firm owned them in america (at the time)
>>152356923...that's why things are why they are(B^Ump)
>>152355589What?Is that why Starry exists ?
>>152359139kinda sorta; sierra mist itself was kinda dying out due to its odd reformulation decisionsthis (https://rock929rocks.com/2024/02/26/the-viral-reason-sierra-mist-rebranded-to-starry/) was just the final nail in the coffin
>>152359311>this roastie killed sierra mist
