Mr. Swackhammer character jug - Warner Brothers Studio 1996

Mr. Swackhammer character jug produced in China by Warner Brothers Studio of Burbank, California, in 1996. "Space Jam" is a 1996 American live-action animated sports comedy film. The film follows Michael Jordan as he is brought out of retirement by the Looney Tunes characters to help them win a basketball match against invading aliens intent on enslaving them as amusement park attractions. In the film, Mr. Swackhammer is the proprietor of Moron Mountain, an outer space amusement park.
Swackhammer sends his Nerdlucks, a quintet of alien minions, to Earth, ordering them to abduct the Tunes to serve as attractions. The Nerdlucks enter the Tunes' universe hidden in the center of the Earth and hold them hostage before Bugs Bunny convinces them to allow the Tunes to defend themselves. The Tunes take advantage of the Nerdlucks' small stature and challenge them to a basketball game. After seeing a documentary about basketball, the Nerdlucks infiltrate various NBA games, stealing the talents of Charles Barkley, Shawn Bradley, Patrick Ewing, Larry Johnson, and Muggsy Bogues. They use these talents to transform into hulking and adept versions of themselves known as the "Monstars". A Nerdluck forms the handle of the jug.
