Our expert's notes

A prop piranha puppet from Joe Dante’s horror film, Piranha. Flesh-eating piranhas were seen throughout the film as they attacked the peaceful guests of a summer resort.
Designed by creature designer Phil Tippet, this piece is made of urethane foam over a wire support structure. The prop piranha is textured with rough, scaly skin and painted in shades of grey, blue and orange. The eyes have been painted with a glossy yellow paint and the mouth bares dozens of yellow teeth. The puppet is mounted to a simple wooden stand with a support rod inserted into a hole in its belly. The item shows minor wear due to production use and age, with a break in the foam where the left fin meets the torso. The prop otherwise remains in good condition. Dimensions: 30 cm x 13 cm x 22 cm (12” x 5” x 8 ½”)

£1,200-1,500
