I just ordered this puppet in a lot of Aurora Gumby toys. I got a gumby and pokey puppets, gumby and pokey plusses, and two tiny plush gumby and pokey Keychain things. I'm so excited to get them. I got all that in perfect condition with tags for 60 bucks. Not bad, eh?!

p.s. charlie, do you have one of these oddball right-waving larger bitties from 1988 prema bk? a few have come up recently on ebay & i snagged one mip! :D also i've found if you add to watchlist these sellers are very quick to offer price reductions ;)

i remember you have the good prickle ;) but did you say you had the others? https://friendlyghost.typepad.com/lost_found_vintage_toys/2017/06/gumby-stuff.html

Yes. I have the whole set. They were kids meal premiums from Roy Roger's, I think. There's a Goo, Blockhead, Prickle, Pokey, and Gumby. I had to piece my set together from different stores. This is one of my favorite Gumby sets! BTW, have you seen the official Goo Marc Jacobs ring? I'm gonna send you some pics.

see that's interesting, what's roy rogers? is it a fastfood place? i know for example many old carl's jr prizes here on the west coast were hardee's prizes elsewhere, are there burger king restaurants where you are? i got the first of mine so long ago & don't remember where i researched it, but it was commonly understood to be a bk promo? now we're wondering? do you know? will check the pix ;)
