Our expert's notes

An animatronic waist-up Ernie panda puppet from Christopher Cain’s The Amazing Panda Adventure. This panda puppet features an electronically controlled body and was remotely operated by technicians during filming. Covered in a foam latex skin with synthetic fur material, the head features a pair of realistic looking eyes, and a closed mouth that was once capable of opening and shutting. There are electronic components still present throughout the body that allow the limbs and paws to move, however these have not been tested for function. Access to the panda’s interior electronics can be found on the side of the body, where there is a hidden zipper. This item shows minor wear to the materials due to production use and age however it remains in overall good condition. Dimensions: 29” x 15” x 8” (74 cm x 38 cm x 20 cm)
$2,000-3,000 *Estimated sale price; sold without reserve
