Spaceman Swinton is a toy Velma Dinkley wanted to get for her cousin.

History[]

What's New, Scooby-Doo?[]

Season one[]

Evil Spaceman Swinton

Spaceman Swinton with red eyes.

A large group of them "came to life" and wreaked havoc at a mall. It was all a trick by security officer, Walter Claphammer, to create a diversion while he hid stolen art in the basement.

At the end of the mystery, Velma bought a Spaceman Swinton for her cousin, unaware of its red glowing eyes and evil grin indicating that the toy could come to life after all.

Appearances[]

Notes/trivia[]

  • The large display of identical spaceman toys on the shelf is a tribute to Buzz Lightyear of the Toy Story movies.
    • Swinton's appearance also looks like an older version of Kwame from Captain Planet and the Planeteers.
  • The name "Swinton" may come from Swinton Scott, who directed several other episodes of What's New, Scooby-Doo?
    • The full name of the toy, "Spaceman Swinton", may also be a reference to Spaceman Spiff, Calvin's alter ego in the newspaper comic series Calvin and Hobbes.
