Rat Fink, created by Ed ����_�Big Daddy����_�_ Roth, became synonymous with Kustom Kulture in the late 1950. Many considered Rat Fink the anti-hero to Mickey Mouse. Rat Fink is generally green or gray, has bulging, bloodshot eyes, sharp teeth, and he wears red overalls. In the 1960, Revell produced a series of model kits that included Roth����_��s Beatnik Bandit, Road Agent, and Rat Fink, among others. The company paid Roth a one cent royalty for each model sold and in 1963, he brought in $32,000 in royalties.
