Some of the intricate details about Chuck can be traced to Elbert Or’s favorite comic strip by Charles M. Schulz creator of the popular Peanuts series. It’s evident that Chuck wears a zigzag shirt similar to Snoopy’s owner and friend Charlie Brown.
Chuck stands in a giant sandwich as the character likes to eat a lot, and as Elbert Or explains about the prototype is that originally it was supposed to be released without the stand. But there was a design flaw that makes Chuck fall down on his huge head. Elbert makes minor changes to the overall design and adds a giant sandwich as its base.
