A light-up display of a cable-controlled George puppet from Joe Dante's Gremlins 2: The New Batch. After water accidentally spilled on Gizmo in the Clamp Enterprises office, he spawned several new Mogwai, including one known as George.

The Mogwai puppets were created by multiple Academy Award®-winning special effects artist Rick Baker's Cinovation Studios and used for the film's early scenes when the character needed to be viewed in full. Unlike the first Gremlins film - which kept the Mogwai and Gremlins relatively consistent in appearance - Gremlins 2 introduced a dramatically more stylized and diverse set of creatures, giving each one a distinctive personality and look.

This puppet has been professionally reassembled using Baker's original parts. The puppet's hands, mouth, and ears are made of foam latex, while its body is covered with brown, white, and black synthetic fur. It features acrylic eyes and foam latex skin painted with ornate detail, including on its fingernails and toenails. The puppet features an internal metal armature connected to two cables for controlling the puppet's arms.

The lot is presented on a custom-made, light-up display stand powered by eight 1.5V AA batteries. It is made of wood with plastic cladding. The squeeze trigger cable for the puppet's left arm has snapped and is currently inoperable. The hands exhibit hardening and cracking, revealing the mechanical fingers underneath. The mouth also exhibits cracking. Dimensions: (displayed) 7" x 13.5" x 18.25" (17.5 cm x 34.5 cm x 46.5 cm)
