The film is the story of brand mascots coming to life in a supermarket after closing time and the idea behind this was to incorporate reportedly 80[1] name-brand products and their associated characters. But after a long development hell caused by the hard drives containing the film’s assets getting stolen, by that point some of the mascots wouldn't be able to show up in the movie anymore, though a number still do. As evidenced by the movie’s credits we have. We can determine what some of the mascot characters that were going to appear but didn't were by looking at various pre-release materials for the movie. The original trailer that retains the superior “squash and stretch” animation of the stolen original film contains two of those characters. It also has parts replaced by the final film’s animation that are still clearly audible, so perhaps there was footage of them in those parts as well that was cut out for whatever reason (if so, you could suggest that there were rights problems, but you can still clearly see some characters that couldn't make it into the final film in the trailer). Additionally, it is not known whether at this point Dolly Madison was the character Daredevil Dan catcalled at or not, the scene of which is in this trailer. The characters are as follows. NOT SURE OF:

  • IBM Mascot
  • Hostess Truck
  • Wonderbread Truck
    • Aunt Jemina (character here: [2])
  • Swanson
  • Spammobile
  • Wonderbread ([3])
