I just got Wembley. There was one! I do have a question....Why is Gobo so small? His hands, arms legs. He is just smaller. Its weird. And Wembley's hair need to die.

Nanco... one of the few weird times when a company makes all three Muppet products. Too bad they're just carny and Claw machine prizes. I'd rather get the sababa stuff. But I still want their Nanco Pepe the Prawn.

I'm so glad I've found this out.

I got a Gobo plush online and I really do like him. He's awesome but I didn't realise that Nanco and Sababa were making different Fraggles.

So he's the Nanco one. He's cool and I agree they do look a bit like the Fraggle from the Gorg scenes...I was a bit dissapointed with the fact he didnt have much more hair...some of his features are good though & he looks much better in life than in any photos I've seen.

Anyway I've decided to to get a Sababa one then the rest of the Fraggles now...so Im confused a little reading the topic.

Are there new biggers ones coming out?

The Gobo (and then others) one I want is the one thats 10-inches tall and is made of polyester...doesn't have a scarf etc.

So is Mokey from this line no longer coming out, should I wait? Should I get another set of Fraggles etc! I just want to get the most realistic of the set.

Sorry for the long post but they are such cool plushes. Just wanna get the best ones. :wink: Hopefully someone can help.

I've yet to find them myself but there is supposed to be both 18 inch and 22 inch Nanco fraggles somewhere. All of the Nanco Gobos have scarves. :smirk:

Umm... I guess due to the somewhat larger size, the Sababa Gobo that comes with the DVD is better.... they're both nice though. I buy them all regardless cuz it's hard to pick just one. :smirk:
