Our expert's notes

Set of three Noid Claymation peg-registered puppet heads made by creator Will Vinton for Domino’s Pizza television commercials. The clay heads each wear a superhero cowl, are sculpted over a metal armature and are hand-painted red, white, and black with a flesh-colored face grimacing and clenching its teeth. Long rabbit-like ears attach via peg holes in the head, and metal pegs below the neck are exposed, where the head would connect to the puppet body (not present).

The puppet heads are in fine, production-used condition overall, retaining their vibrant 80s colors. Some slight cracking as is consistent with the medium.

‘Noid’ is a shortened version of ‘Dominoid’, a playful name Domino’s corporate employees called each other. Back in the era of Domino’s 30-minute delivery guarantee, the Noid puppet personified everything that could go wrong getting a pizza delivered in time.

Provenance: Mr. Will Vinton
