Fiery Red and Icy Blue Devil Duckies

Name: Fiery Red and Icy Blue Devil Duckies
Interests: Being evil, adding some fire to the tub and dressing up for parties.
Where to Find: Bang-on on Whyte Ave
Brand: Accoutrements 2000
Price: $5.95 Cdn each


The Classic Red Devil Ducky 


Ready to party.

The Fiery Red Devil Ducky is the first and classic Devil Ducky. He is also the only devil ducky that I have seen that has red pupils instead of black pupils. He loves dressing up for parties with his best friend Icy Blue Devil Ducky. These are the first two devil duckies that I bought and I bought them in the year 2000 so they probably cost a lot more to buy today.

Pewter Devil Ducky

Name: Pewter Devil Ducky
Interests: Chemistry. They Might be Giants is my favourite band and my favourite song is “Elements.”
Where to Find: Bang-on
Brand: Accoutrements
Price: $5.95 Cdn each
I love deviled eggs.

Pewter Devil Ducky is very sleek looking with a matte silver finish and a stark black horn and beak. Oddly enough, from the side his wings look like angel wings. He works fulltime as a chemist. After hours in the lab, he becomes quite the devil. He spends a lot of time plucking to give his eyebrows the perfect pointy arch.

Ninja Devil Ducky

Name: Ninja Devil Ducky
Interests: I love the teenage mutant ninja turtles. Raphael is my favourite and red is my favourite colour.
Where to Find: Bang-on on Whyte Avenue
Brand: Accoutrements
Price: $6.95 Cdn
I have a black belt.

Ninja Devil Ducky is pretty badass. Despite his get up and his throwing star necklace, he is actually a romantic good guy at heart. He has been keeping the streets of Canada safe for over a decade now. He enjoys the Whtye Ave nightlife and keeps the drunks a bay. However, he was not able to stop the Canada Day Whyte Ave Riot in 2006. He was travelling in Greece with his wife and two ducklings.

Leopard Devil Ducky from Bang On

Name: Leopard Devil Ducky
Interests: Poking people with my horns.
Where to Find: Bang-On on Whyte Avenue
Brand: Accoutrements
Price: $5.95 Cdn 

 Diablo

While we were in Mexico for our friend’s wedding a few years ago, my husband discovered a spicy brand of chips called Diablo. They were addictive so we brought a few bags home for ourselves. There is a shoe store by our house call Diablo and I think of the the chips every time we drive by.

I used to be really into Leopard print but I’m not so much anymore. I used to have leopard print car seat covers, a glass case and other leopard print paraphernalia in my car. The only thing I have left is a seat belt cover. I still use it because it stops the strap from digging into me. Leopard Devil Ducky has a black beak, tail and horns. She is a light tan colour with darker brown and black spots.

There is also a poem on her tag:

“Devil Duckie, you’re the one.
You make bathtime lots of fun.
Devil Duckie, I’m awfully dirty today.
(Woh, woh, bee day!)

Devil Duckie when you float,
It’s like I’m bathing in a moat!
Devil Duckie, you’re my very best friend, hooray!
(Doo, doo, doo, dee, day!)

Every day when I
Make my way to get clean,
I find a little fella who’s
Orange and yellow and mean.
(Rub-a-dub-keen!)

Devil Duckie, you’re so swell,
You guide me on the path to hell,
Devil Duckie, I’m awfully dirty -
Devil Duckie, you’re a naughty birdy -
Devil Duckie, I’m awfully dirty today.”

I have quite a few devil ducks, so sit back and enjoy the collection.

Dead Duck from Bang-on

Name: Dead Ducky
Interests: Dying, being buried, cremated, zombies
Where to Find: Bang-on on Whyte Ave
Brand: Accoutrements
Price: $5.95
I will live again.

I am not a superstitious person. I think of 13 as a lucky number especially since I often stay in room 13 while I am travelling. However, I had to find an appropriate themed ducky for Friday the 13th.

Dead Ducky is all black, has a pale, pasty, drained of life green beak, two bleak x’s mark the spot of where his eyes used to be. He has a line on the bottom of his beak for a mouth and a small red tongue hanging out of his mouth. Happy Friday the 13th everyone!

Mr. T CelebriDuck from Bang On

Name: Mr. T Celebriduck Rubber Ducky
Interests: Looking rough
Where to Find: Bang-On
Brand: http://www.celebriducks.com/shop/celebrityducks.htm
Price: $15.00 Cdn

Chilling on the Avenue

I am not even sure if you can call celebrity Celebriducks a rubber duck or not. Personally I am not a fan of rubber ducks that are so done up they don’t even look like a rubber ducky anymore. I’ve seen a few cat and dog rubber ducks, but I don’t own many of these style of rubber ducks. You can only tell a celebrity Celebriduck is a rubber duck because it has a beak instead of a human looking nose.
I also think Celebriducks are extremely overpriced compared to other rubber ducks. They are $15.00 each. Great mark up for the company. I am sure these rubber ducks only cost $2.00 to produce.

My husband’s aunt and cousin bought me Mr. T from the store on Whyte Ave where you can design your own T-Shirts-Bang-On. Don’t get me wrong. I do appreciate that they bought me this rubber duck and I am happy to have this “limited edition” in my collection. However, celebrity Celebriducks just aren’t my favorite style of rubber ducky.
