There’s something irresistibly fun about seeing a beloved movie franchise collide with a toy line that’s already known for being weird, chaotic, and a little unhinged—and the original Fugglers x Gremlins collaboration delivers exactly that.
Before Fugglers became part of the ZURU lineup, the brand leaned hard into its offbeat identity. The Gremlins crossover perfectly captured that era, blending the mischievous charm of the films with the unsettling, toothy personality Fugglers are famous for.
Today, I’m excited to showcase the complete original Fugglers x Gremlins set—a true two-piece collection featuring Gizmo and Stripe, exactly as they were released before the brand’s transition under ZURU.
👹 About Fugglers x Gremlins (Original Release)
The original Fugglers x Gremlins collaboration was released during Fugglers’ pre-ZURU era, when the brand was still independently carving out its identity as the “anti-cute” plush line.
Rather than soft, traditional plush designs, Fugglers were known for:
- Exaggerated facial expressions
- Human-like teeth (their signature feature)
- Wild eyes and chaotic personalities
- A deliberately strange, collectible-driven aesthetic
The Gremlins license was a perfect match. These characters were meant to look a little wrong—and Fugglers leaned into that unapologetically.
📦 What’s Included in the Original Set?
Unlike later Fugglers waves that expanded into large assortments, the Gremlins collaboration was intentionally small.
🧸 The Complete Original Set (2 Total)
🟢 Gizmo
- A twisted-cute take on the iconic Mogwai
- Combines Gizmo’s innocent charm with classic Fuggler chaos
- Expressive eyes and signature Fuggler teeth give him a uniquely unsettling look
🔴 Stripe
- Aggressive, mischievous, and perfectly unhinged
- Captures Stripe’s chaotic personality with exaggerated features
- One of the most visually striking Fugglers from the pre-ZURU era
That’s it—just two figures, but together they form a fully complete and historically important set.
🗓️ Pre-ZURU Era (Why This Set Matters)
This collaboration predates ZURU’s acquisition of the Fugglers brand, making these versions especially meaningful to long-time collectors.
Pre-ZURU Fugglers are often prized for:
- Their raw, experimental designs
- Smaller production runs
- A stronger emphasis on shock value and weirdness
- Distinct differences from later ZURU-era releases
Because of this, the original Fugglers x Gremlins figures represent a snapshot of Fugglers before the brand evolved into its modern form.
For collectors who care about original releases, first editions, and brand history, this set holds real significance.
🏆 A True Complete Set
Completing this collection means owning every original Fugglers x Gremlins figure ever released.
This set is ideal for:
- Fugglers collectors
- Gremlins fans
- Pre-ZURU toy collectors
- Horror-adjacent and cult-film displays
Seeing Gizmo and Stripe side-by-side really highlights how intentional this crossover was—balanced, character-accurate, and unmistakably Fugglers.
