Toy Vault developing Henson Fantasy Plush

[Laszlo]

I was waiting for a Fizzgig plush since ages... but how did we deserve this?

Why does every new Labyrinth or Dark Crystal product look like crap???

Oh my gosh! He looks like a cartoon beheaded wookie! (Sigh) Some people are so cruel. (weeps bitterly)

ummm seriously I think just about any one of us here could make a better one of those by looking at images of him taking said images to craft store and buying things and making our own...
aka yea it's complete crap.

Maybe my memory's playing tricks on me, but I don't remember Fizzgig being so . . . brown. Wasn't there, say, white and grey and such around his mouth?

Hmm. Maybe we could convince ourselves to buy this plush by deciding this is actually Fizzgig's rambunctious young nephew Figfizz.

Or maybe not.

>SIGH< And a plush Fizzgig is such a perfect idea, too. . . .

Indeed! The color is totally off!

It just occurred to me that what would be even better than a Fizzgig plush would be a Fizzgig hand puppet--so you could open his mouth way too wide like he did in the film. Imagine hiding somewhere and, as soon as someone approaches, making Fizzgig burst out of nowhere flinging open his jaws with all those teeth everywhere. Add your own sound effects: GWARRRRRHH!!

You could probably do that by cutting a hole in the bottom or back.

I don't mind the Rigel plush...the others ain't floating my boat. They look like home made versions.
