The Phillies have introduced a slightly different version of their traditional mascot amid an ongoing legal battle over the copyright of the original Phanatic.
The pair retain the right to terminate the contract if an agreement with the Phillies isn't reached by June 15 and have threatened to make Phanatic a"free agent".mascot owns its fame to the franchise as much as it does to its creators and insisting the deal signed in 1984 transferred the rights to Phanatic"forever".
The new iteration of the notoriously mischievous mascot—among other things, Phanatic is famous for firing hot-dogs into the crowd with a gun, riding his ATV around the field and from time-to-time appearing in broadcast booths—is very similar to the traditional Phanatic. Some details, however, have changed. Phanatic has shed considerable weight, its fur is a lighter shade of green than its usual self and the hands are fur-free. Similarly, the new Phanatic features more blue around his eyes and a solid blue tail has replaced the previous green and blue version.4. Stars outline Eyes
