 Finally! My own mogwai! |
| Review Date: December 1, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Monty Moonlight, TX |
Actually, this isn't the first mogwai I've owned, but it's certainly the best! I've never seen such an accurate looking Gizmo toy, and he even sings the same song from the film "Gremlins" (one bar sung twice in reaction to sound when Gizmo is switched on from the bottom). Gizmo's ears, hands, feet, eyes, nose, and mouth are hard plastic painted to look just as he does in the hit 1984 Spielberg film (directed by Joe Dante), and the rest of his body is plush (aside from the hard mechanical guts that allow him to rock from side to side (the "dancing" motion) covered in fur that matches the film Gizmo well. Gizmo looks and sounds fantastic. In fact, from a distance, he looks to be a near perfect replica, being basically life size and very well proportioned. He is absolutely too cool, and puts my old Gizmo Furby to shame (in fact, I think I might toss that one out now that I have this, especially since it may now have a broken muzzle like all the ones I used to see in stores; but man, the Christmas it came out, that sucker was hard to get). It's too bad this new Dancing Gizmo from Neca can't do all the things the old Furby could do, but the very fact that he looks exactly like Gizmo and sings the same tune from the film blows the old toy away. If I were to nitpick, I would only say that I wish Neca's Gizmo blinked his eyes as well, as that would have just been phenomenal in adding realism. I'd also say it would have been nice if he rocked a bit slower to match the tune he sings. Other wishes aren't worth mentioning, but those two tweaks would have been amazing.
The only complaint I could give about Gizmo as he is would be that I did have to groom him here and there, as his fur had some odd spots of glue crust and threads that needed plucking (there was actually an odd green thread below the mouth on one side that was the main issue), and that I had to apply a little pressure to the fur around the bottom of the mouth that was becoming just slightly unglued. That particular area is the weakest point visually, as close inspection makes it obvious that it is fake fur glued to a plastic mouth. Those slight issues aside (even though they shouldn't have come up), this is a MUST for any Gremlins fan, and he'll make all your old Gremlins merchandise obsolete. If you want to stop being an '80's kid packrat and own one definitive piece of Gremlins merchandise so you can clear out everything else, this is the Gizmo you need. He's sure to wow you if you're a Gizmo fan! I only wish I had him instead of the Gizmo Furby the year I went as Billy for Halloween! I'll have to do that again someday. |
Good replica

| I just wanted a simple Gizmo toy. But one that sings is awesome. It actually sound really good, unlike hundreds of horrible sounding toys that talk. |
One of the most annoying toys you can possibly get...

As cute as Gizmo is, once he's on, he'll annoy everyone.
Sofar my first Gizmo was booted across a room and stopped dancing, the second one was strung up to the roof by a pc's mouse at work. |
toy for grown ups

| Gizmo is great, anyone who went to the movies to see the gremlins will agree. So this is a collectors item, not really a kids toy. I love it, but I guess a kid won't have any special interest and might see it just as another plush toy. |
adorable

| It's prettymuch what I thought it would be. It's head and body moves (I wouldn't call it dancing) and he sings that sweet Gizmo song. |
