These puppets are genuine 1970s survivors, released during a peak era for Looney Tunes merchandise. Tweety maintains his bright canary yellow, while Sylvester still has his "Sufferin' Succotash" charm with his tuft of black hair and wide-eyed expression. Because they were made by Mighty Star, they have that durable, high-quality plush feel that has allowed them to stay in very good condition for over 50 years. While the tags show a bit of age, the puppets themselves are clean and ready for display or play. They’re a cheerful find for a serious animation collector or a clever gift for someone who grew up with the cat-and-bird rivalry.
This set is vintage, approximately 55 years old. All measurements are close but approximate. I measure in quarter inches.
