143 Coyne

Coyne is a parody of James Bond. 

I am not sure why the designers chose this name. Coyne is an Irish surname (last name).  Maybe they thought it was a Scottish name, and it refers to Scottish actor Sean Connery who is famous for portraying James Bond in the first five films (plus two more).

Sean Connery also provides the namesake for the zood of Henry.

Coyne was the only new figure in his movie-themed series of six.

The other five figures were all re-releases: Frank N. Finger, Finger Tut, Duke (the cowboy), Bull (the Indian), and Neal (the producer).

This was also the last series of six.  The Dudes released after Coyne came in series of eight.

Also, don't forget that we have Coyne's archenemy Stavron in the toyline too.
