Is there a thread that lists the code names of past Stern titles? I know GOTG was "Furry Hats" and TWD was something like "Dinner Time", but I'm curious if there is a list of those...please share if you know any (or know of a thread). Thanks!
Here you go:
Furry Hats - Guardians
Donut - Star Wars (Changed from Cinnabun)
Toys - Aerosmith
Shark - Batman66
Harold - Ghostbusters
Dudes - WWE
Politico - Game of Thrones
Dinner Time - Walking Dead
Bill - Star Trek
Biscuit - Mustang
Grinder - AC/DC

Quoted from pin2d:Was there one code named Donut?
After researching, "Donut" was definitely used for Star Wars. It's referenced with parts in the Star Wars manual (i.e. Part No. 510-7704-00 - DONUT PRO RIGHT RAMP RIVETED ASSEMBLY).
I do remember hearing "Cinnabun" too around that time, but I'm not sure where it was sourced from.
At the Stern factory tour this year at Expo, they told us that they changed Star Wars code name from cinnabun to donut because they feared it was too obvious of a connection to Leia.
