A stop-motion bat gremlin from Joe Dante's horror comedy sequel Gremlins 2: The New Batch. After ingesting an experimental bat serum, a gremlin grew a pair of wings and terrorized tourists outside of Clamp Tower.

This lot comes from the collection of Doug Beswick, an effects artist well-known for his stop-motion animation and creature effects work. This winged gremlin puppet was constructed from foam latex with a flexible metal armature interior. It is hand-painted with purple and green paint details, resin teeth, and red and yellow acrylic eyes. The gremlin comes mounted to a wooden display base.

Following production, the puppet underwent sympathetic stabilization and sealing to prevent further loss to the latex. It remains fragile with crumbling and cracking throughout the latex, and should be handled with caution. Dimensions: 25" x 12" x 13" (66 cm x 30.5 cm x 33 cm)

Estimate: $15,000 - 20,000
