Trivia[]
- Mr. Nezzer from The Toy That Saved Christmas is Wally P. Nezzer, the brother of Nebby K. Nezzer.
- The real story behind "Rack, Shack and Benny" is Shadrach, Meshach and Abednigo from the Book of Daniel. Mr. Nezzer represents King Nebuchadnezzar. First, he had everyone eat chocolate bunnies like how he forced his subjects to eat royal food and wine. He then planned to throw Shadrach, Meshach and Abednigo to the fiery furnace, but they did not get burnt due to God's intervention because of their faith.
- Nebby K. Nezzer is a pun for Nebuchadnezzar.
- Mr. Nezzer's physical appearance and voice were inspired by the late Ken Page, who had voiced both King Gator in All Dogs Go to Heaven and Oogie Boogie in The Nightmare Before Christmas. Phil Vischer used a voice similar to the latter when voicing Mr. Nezzer.
- In Veggietales in the House, Mr. Nezzer was banned, since his voice was reminiscent of African-American men, while his voice actor is Phil Vischer, who is White. The reason Mr. Nezzer sounded Black is because his voice was inspired by Ken Page, who was in fact Black. In DreamWorks, interracial voicing is not allowed, so Mr. Nezzer was retired and replaced by a similar-looking character, Ichabeezer. DreamWorks’ taboo against interracial voice acting likely dates back to The Prince of Egypt, since DreamWorks chose mostly Jewish voice actors to play Moses and the other Jewish characters in that movie.
- In The Veggietales Show, Mr. Nezzer returns voiced by David Mann, who is Black.
- Mr. Nezzer was originally dark-green, but in the later shows, he became lighter green.
