A Lenny Mogwai puppet from Joe Dante's horror-comedy sequel Gremlins 2: The New Batch. When water accidently spilled on Gizmo and the new Mogwai were spawned, they made their way to an ice-cream parlour. A full-body puppet was required for the moment when Lenny lay hungrily underneath the ice-cream machine.

Created by Academy Award®-winning special-effects artist Rick Baker's Cinovation Studios, the puppet features foam latex skin, with the mechanical body covered with soft brown, white and black-striped faux-fur. The foam latex skin is fully painted and displays great detail, with eyelashes, resin teeth, and painted fingernails and toenails.

The back of the puppet is open, exposing an array of internal tubes. A metal armature runs throughout the body, which is connected to a series of cables controlling the hands, operated using two plastic squeeze-trigger cable controls. A pair of metal rods run through the arms to manually control their movement. A circle of black card is fixed to the back of the head, concealing the hole that allowed the ice cream to pour straight through, with a pair of thin white strings present on the back of the head to control the ears.

The puppet displays light signs of wear, with slight hardening and cracking to the foam latex. However, it remains in very good condition and is presented on a custom-made light-up display stand. Dimensions (displayed): 44 cm x 38 cm x 56 cm (17 1/4" x 15" x 22")
