McDevo?
genius - McDonalds seemed to have utilised devo's v. famous headwear when designing their latest happy meals without permission. I hope they take them for millions for denigrating their name with McDo, AND American Idol. Furthermore...New Wave Nigel - WTF?

Geek Chic, Pretty on The Pavement
Smart is the NEW pretty. These two cuties are rocking our favorite new look, Geek Chic. Spectacled, unpretentious, and oddly HOT. I am sure there are a few vintage Devo and Kraftwerk tunes on their ipods.

Are we not toys? We are DEVO...and we're suing McDonald's
Upset over a recent Happy Meal toy pack-in named New Wave Nigel, who sports the group's trademark outfit, Devo is seeking litigious action.
Pitchfork reports:
"According to an Australian Associated Press report reprinted on stuff.co.nz [via BrooklynVegan], the band is suing McDonald's, claiming that no one from the company contacted them about New Wave Nigel. Devo bassist Gerald Casale-- who designed the trademarked energy dome headgear-- is quoted as saying, "This New Wave Nigel doll that they've created is just a complete Devo rip-off and the red hat is exactly the red hat that I designed, and it's copyrighted and trademarked. We're in the midst of suing them...they didn't ask us anything. Plus, we don't like McDonald's, and we don't like 'American Idol', so we're doubly offended."
The toy is a part of a tie-in with American Idol. Each toy plays music, and as you may have guessed, Nigel's song is "Devo-esque."
