With Anchorman 2: The Legend Returns opening in theaters December 20th, just about everyone will recognize the mustachioed suit-clad character Ron Burgundy, whether they've ever seen Will Ferrell in the role or not. That's because the promotional tie-ins with Paramount Pictures upcoming film are, as Ron would say, "Kind of a Big Deal."
From shilling for Dodge as their Durango spokesman to his own branded whiskey, the character has inspired everything from a Ben and Jerry Scotch-flavored ice cream to Jockey briefs. Action Figures, LEGO Mini figs, Replica Coats, Panther Sex Cologne and more. Here's a look at the best of the bunch.
JOCKEY ANCHORMAN BRIEFS
Jockey has launched 100% cotton briefs briefs as The Stuff legends Are Made Of with a unique Y-front® fly that provides ample support for your little anchorman in stylish colors that say "I'm kind of a big deal!" - Ron Burgundy.
“Jockey had one of the legendary ad campaigns of the early ‘80s, and the new movie hilariously depicts pop culture of that time,” said LeeAnne Stables, President of Consumer Products at Paramount Pictures. “Producing this limited edition line is a way to extend the fun and anticipation for the film to fans of the movie and the Jockey brand.”

BEN AND JERRY'S SCOTCHY SCOTCH SCOTCH ICE CREAM
Created in honor of beloved Ron Burgundy, the TV news anchor with a penchant for all things scotch, the flavor is a creamy concoction of butterscotch ice cream with ribbons of butterscotch swirl.
“Scotchy, Scotch, Scotch is a delicious ice cream and I hope Ben and Jerry consider my other suggestions,” said Ron Burgundy. “Malt liquor marshmallow, well liquor bourbon peanut butter, and cheap white wine sherbet."
“Having Ben & Jerry’s celebrate the return of Ron Burgundy to the big screen with the introduction of this special ice cream is an exciting and delicious way to build anticipation for the film,” said LeeAnne Stables, President of Consumer Products at Paramount Pictures. “We especially enjoyed the sampling process over the last several months to find the perfect Scotchy scotch flavor.”
Scotchy Scotch Scotch is available now at participating scoop shops across the country. Pints of the flavor will arrive on store shelves over the next few weeks. You can use their online locator to find the flavor near you.

The actual Ron Burgundy suit (below) from the original movie was auctioned and sold for a whopping $22,500 through liveauctioneers.com and was described as the following in the auction catalog:
WILL FERRELL “RON BURGUNDY” COSTUME FROM ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY - (DreamWorks, 2004) This is pompous but loveable newscaster Ron Burgundy’s (as played by Will Ferrell) signature suit from the movie Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. The costume consists of a bright red Polyester blazer, white button-down shirt and blue and white striped power tie. Faux-wood plastic buttons ornament the loud jacket on the front closure, cuffs and hip pockets. Matching red pants end in bellbottoms. A pair of stark, Pat Boone-white, stitched leather loafers with black rubber soles completes the ensemble. Will Ferrell wears this signature suit throughout the hilarious comedy and in key publicity and ad media. A rare and stunning signature costume from a favorite American comedy, endearing comic character and comedian.
