Fizgig & Sir Didymus puppets...

[Kermieuk]

I was fortunate to get a rare chance to see the original puppets of Fizgig & Sir Didymus.
They are owned by the private collection of ''The Prop Store of London''. Of course they are fragile as they are made of latex, but it was amazing to see them.

Awesome! Congrats! I would love to have a Fizzgig...

Two of my favorites! I was kind of blown away when I first realized they were both handled by Dave Goelz.

Fizzgig is my favorite part of The Dark Crystal, and that's saying something.

I love both characters greatly. I've been wanting to name a pet Fizzgig for years but every time we get a new one I keep getting outvoted by the rest of the family. Partially because no one else knows who the character is and partially because they just think the name's wierd. No accounting for taste I guess.

I saw both a Fizzgig and a Sir Didymus puppet as part of an animatronics exhibit a few years ago. They were both from the "Collection of The Henson Family, courtesy of The Jim Henson Legacy." When I posted a link to the photos, Laszlo had the same question for me. The Fizzgig I saw did have four feet.

I didn't count his feet!! As they also had a fraggle too I probably spent most my time looking at him!!

The Fizzgig I saw did have four feet.

Thank you! Just what I thought... However a few years back I always thought he has 2 feet...
