there's cool gumby stuff to look forward to coming this summer ~
i've seen some sneak peeks! ;) ~
but for right now i'm sharing this rare prickle plush toy ~
prickle may be my favorite of gumby's friends ~
art clokey made prickle & goo based on alan watts' description of people being either prickly types or gooey types ~
my friend jeff at papercutz calls prickle 'persnickety but with a heart of goo' ~
he's complicated & feels misunderstood, the artist of the group ~
from prema 1998, i've only seen these large plush toys available as imports ~

Whoa! What a cool and cute plush!
Is that Japanese text on the back of the box?

I just snagged a 16 inch Plush Prickle! It's not this one though. It has Google eyes.
