New Nanco Fraggle Plush

Are there any photos out there or more information on these Target exclusives? Are they suppossed to be bigger?

Where can you buy these? What are the made for? If the public can't buy them, than who? They arn't that pretty, but they are Fraggles, and thats is a HUGE Wembley! I'll buy them all!

Not sure yet. I've gotten the 3 sizes toward the shorter end from eBay. Dunno where the sellers get these yet.

Does anybody know were we can see some pics of these new dolls? Or do we have to wait till they hit stores?

I think they may be more on the lines of theme park prizes but I can't say for certain.

Foodie, you're correct. I found these dolls at 6 Flags New England. I was very tempted to play to win but i figured i'd save my money for Target's exclusive (if that rumor is real). THey dont exactly look GREAT... They're bigger then the Sababa dolls tho... but yeah i found it near the Looney Toon Town section where you have to play agaisnt other people by squirtin water to fill a balloon. I've also seen sesame street and muppet babies there in the past so i always check to see what they have n e time i go.

Also there were big bird dolls and Bert and Ernie dolls at the same game. Ernie was dressed as a cop and i forget what Bert was dressed as

How big were they?

Nick

eh... other then sandals, i forgot my ruler that day... it was on my check list too... kidding

but i think probably 15? they were bigger then the Sababa plushes... and i think i tried looking to see if they were made by Sababa too, because they have the same tag. I dont think i saw anything that said Sababa.

I seriously have to buy them all, no matter how big or how small! Then, I'll add them to my stuffed animal collection! I'm running out of room for stuffed animals, though... maybe I'll resort to the floor...

They look a lot like Sababa's because they appear to use the same patterns. Their Gobo comes with a scarf though. Do you recall his scarf? Of the 3 sizes I have, all of the Gobo's have rather large scarves on so you can barely see his shirt under it. His postcard is different too. It's actually printed on for one thing. It's also a kind of felt instead of cardboard.

From what I can tell, Nanco has 5 different sized fraggle plushes & I have the 3 smaller ones. I've got 8', 11' and 13'. I'd say the that the other sizes are close to 18' and over 20' but it's hard to tell from the little picture on Nanco's site.

Foodie, i found another site that sells them at $15.99 each and at the top of the site it says free shipping on all orders... http://www.sarahgifts.com/product_info.php/products_id/454784534

and thank you for replying to my message. I didn't know you posted a link on here so disregaurd the new message i sent in reply asking which site.

I'm still curiouse if Target will have these in their stores (now) or if i should try and order them through this site. I think these are the same ones that someone mentioned were going to be sold at Target. But the Target site doesn't have them listed. I originaly heard they were going to be sold in Aug. SO maybe Target isn't putting them on shelves till then.

Anyone here own a target store? lol

The link below, shows a web page that has Gobo, Wembley and Red in boxes witha DVD, it says they are all in stock, at $19.99, these look great, but there is no mention of the episode on the DVD?? Anyone have any more news on these??

Those are way cute, Gobo looks so good. I stil hate that they didn't change Red and Wembley's hair. Red need's the boobers hair, and boober needed Red's, cause Red's hair in the show is mixed with yellow anr orange. And Wembley with Yellow, not this multi colored stuff. Lets just hope and pray....and if you don't pray, cross your fingers, that we get a Mokey!

I got mine the other day. They're very nice... and squishy. They're about the size of the Hasbro ones but with better proportions.

Nick

I literally have a Target store next door to me. It's said to be their most profitable on the planet as it's outside of the OSU campus. I get first dibs on new Star Wars figures quite often.

Anyhoo, I did order one of my Gobos from that site too. It's affiliated with the other one I linked because the boxes came from the same address . Originally, before they actually got these fraggles in stock, they were asking $45.00 for each... which is why I just ordered Gobo. They adjusted the price once they got them in though.


Nick

I took a look around the Target store near me and they didn't have the Fraggle Plushes. I was really hoping to find them too. They probablywont released them till Augest like someone said. Now i'm debating if i want to wait or at least order Gobo... tempting lol... i'm just afride that if i wait i can save money. And i really should be saving money... hard choice.

Does anyone know which episodes are on the DVD's that come with these new plushes?? Is it episodes that have already been released??

Thanks

Chris

Are these new dolls by Sababa?

Yuppers! Sababa they are!

And, to answer the DVD content question:

Gobo = " The Lost Treasure of the Fraggles " , " The Challenge " and " Gobo's Song ".

Wembley = " Wembley and the Gorgs ", " The Beast of Blue Rock " and " Wembley and the Bemble ".

Red = " Beginnings ", " Let the Water Run " and " Red's Drippy Dilemma ".

Also, is ya ask me, these seem to fit the exact description of the rumored Target store exclusives. So, I dunno what that's all about.


Nick

Hi Foodie,

Thanks so much for that info, I didnt realise each disc had THREE episodes on it, how cool. Also its great to see there are three so far unreleased episodes on DVD, Wembley and the bemble, Reds Drippy Dilema, and Gobo's Song. (correct me if Im wrong, this is off the top of my head)!!

Next Question, anyone in the US able to help me get these three, I live in UK!!?

Thanks guys

Chris
