Gremlins 2: The New Batch, Animatronic Mohawk Mogwai (Type 4)

original movie prop

This is a hero Animaronic Mohawk Mogwai puppet from the 1990 creature feature Gremlins 2: The New Batch.

An Original Mohawk Mogwai Animatronic Puppet created for Joe Dante\\\'s 1990 horror comedy sequel, Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Created by legendary special effects artisan Rick Baker, Mohawk is one of the three primary villains featured in the film.

This version of Mohawk has been carefully crafted out of foam latex and features a soft black and white faux fur over the body with a mouth full of sharp teeth (a rarity among Mogwai). There are numerous cable controls still present which were used for controlling various movements for the puppet and are connected to servos in a plastic case featuring a label for each servo “fingers, elbow, etc.”

This piece includes a letter of authenticity signed by Rick Baker himself. Additionally, the puppet comes in a custom-built black wooden box and stand (pictured), built by the production for extra-safe transportation. Although this item features minor wear from production use and age, with the foam latex dried in some areas and displaying small cracks in the right ear (see photos), it remains in overall good condition.
