SLAPPY - Firmer Body/Mouth Upgraded 30" Ventriloquist Dummy (Works/Eyes Glow)

Description: PLEASE READ LISTING DETAILS & VIEW THE PHOTOS SO THE ITEM RECEIVED IS THE ITEM YOU ARE EXPECTING. ASK QUESTIONS – DO NOT ASSUME. Thank You!=============================================================- PRE-OWNED/PREVIOUSLY DISPLAYED VENTRILOQUIST DUMMY -VINTAGE R.L. Stine's Goosebumps "SLAPPY"30" Ventriloquist Dummy Doll By Scholastic/Goldberger Doll CoThe mouth DOES WORK as it should - Pull the string out the back of the neck and the mouth opens, release the string and the mouth closes. MOUTH UPGRADE: The mouth mechanism has been upgraded. The rubber band has been replaced with a steel spring that will give a smoother more natural jaw movement that will last for many many years! To operate the mouth you pull the string out the back of his neck to open his mouth. Release the string and the mouth closes.FIRMER/NON FLOPPY BODY: The torso of this Slappy is much firmer than the most Goldberger dummies I have seen (SEE LAST PHOTO). This Slappy will hold his head up. This Slappy will sit up. This Slappy's body is not spongy cottony soft and the head will not flop to one side or back when you hold him up and pull the string. (SEE LAST PHOTO). Earlier dummies by Goldberger/EeGees had firmer torsos. Measures 30" tallSays 'Scholastic' on back of neckClothing appears to be the correct vintage showing the usual wear from age, handling and storage Black Shoes Included Eyes Glow In The Dark- THESE ARE GETTING RARER AND HARDER TO FIND - Slappy dummies have become rare collector items since Goldberger discontinued their Celebrity Ventriloquist Dummy line in 2023. Finding a Slappy dummy that will sit up (SEE PHOTO #7), with a firmer non-floppy body and an upgraded mouth mechanism (smoother spring instead of a rubber band) that will last for many many years... is a KEEPER! Before you buy a Slappy, ask the seller if the one he is selling can sit up like this one does in photo #7 of if it flops over and falls! Please view pictures as they are part of the description.NOTE: THE LAST PHOTO IS FOR EXAMPLE ONLY ============================================================= USE CAUTION WHEN BUYING A GOLDBERGER DUMMY: Be aware that many Goldberger Celebrity Series ventriloquist dummies made in the 2000's and sold in those clear plastic zipper pouches, are super soft, floppy, 'Raggedy Ann' cottony fiber filled torsos that you can squeeze the body flat in one hand and the head flops all over when you lift it. (SEE LAST PHOTO) . It is almost impossible to hold a super soft floppy Goldberger dummy on your knee and pull the string without it flopping over! ============================================================= PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE PURCHASINGI am selling these ventriloquist dummies for the family of the owner.
