Exactly. His motto is "Phony Evidence is just Trunked Up!" |
Phony Phanty is a red anthropomorphic elephant mascot used as part of a campaign set up to combat fabricated evidence in the courtroom during the so-called "dark age of the law". Another mascot, a blue anthropomorphic rhinoceros called Bum Rap Rhiny, was created to raise awareness of false accusations within the legal system. The two mascots are brothers.[1]
Name
- The Japanese name for the mascot, "Netsuzō-kun" (ねつゾウくん), comes from "Netsuzō" (捏造), which means "fabrication" or "forgery". While the "zō" (象) in the name means "elephant", it may also be a subtle reference to Bobby Fulbright (and thus foreshadowing his true identity), as his given name in the Japanese version is "Gōzō" (轟三).
- "Phony" is a synonym for "fake", while "Phanty" is a play on the word "elephant". However, "Phanty" could also be a reference to the "phantom" (who is also a "phony", in that he pretends to be other people), who used a Phony Phanty doll to conceal a bomb.
Development
- Bum Rap Rhiny and Phony Phanty appear to be based on a defendant and a judge, respectively.
- An object resembling Phony Phanty can be seen hanging from the ceiling in the art room at Themis Legal Academy.
References
- ↑ Woods: Bum Rap Rhiny and Phony Phanty are brothers.
