This is the original production used puppet prop of a Lenny Mogwai from director Joe Dante’s 1990 film Gremlins 2: The New Batch.
To achieve maximum realism and functionality, the Gremlins 2 creative team constructed this 13″(33cm) puppet for the movie out of foam latex to which they applied a full multi-colored fur body.
It has an open head and a wide neck for insertion of the puppeteer’s hand through the head in order to walk the Puppet with his/her fingers, which is one of the various methods used by the puppeteers in the film.
This collector’s piece is a one-of-a-kind that has been given a custom display stand featuring the film’s logo laser-cut on the front. The logo illuminates by ultra-bright LED lights, powered by replaceable batteries, and can be easily switched on/off with a button located on the display’s back.
It comes with a signed letter of authenticity signed by Rick Baker, the head of the Gremlins 2 creative team! Additionally a Prop Store Certificate of Authenticity is supplied.
The entire piece, including the display stand, measures 17″ x 12″ (43cm x 30cm).
