In
2003, Sababa Toys released two plush Fraggle dolls of Gobo and Red
Fraggle. A few months later in 2004, Wembley, Boober and a few Doozers
soon followed. But fans have been awaiting the plush of the fifth
and final member of the Fraggle five, Mokey Fraggle.
Many expected that Sababa would be releasing Mokey by the end of
the year. However last
month, rumors circulated that Sababa Toys might not be producing
a Mokey plush after all.
Sababa
Toys has responded with this official statement on the issue:
Due to the
overwhelming number of emails we’ve received regarding a
Mokey plush, we would like to set the records straight. We at
Sababa Toys are Fraggle Rock fans ourselves, which is why we sought
out the license. We WILL be producing a Mokey plush for release
in SUMMER 2006. We will be sure to update Muppetcentral.com with
all details, including what retailers will be carrying Mokey.
It
is unknown at this time whether or not a plush of Traveling Matt
will also be released in 2006. Since the plush dolls have been released
two at a time, Matt would be a natural inclusion with Mokey.
In
the meantime, there are two Fraggle Rock Fun packs now beginning
to appear on the market. Each include two min-plush and a bonus
Fraggle Rock episode on DVD. Fraggle Rock Uno is also now available.
Be sure to purchase these Fraggle products to continue to show Sababa
Toys that you'd like to see more Fraggle plush and PVC figures produced
in the future.
