Now, for the first time, toys in the style of the 1950's Gumby puppets are available.
Creator Art Clokey did not want to take advantage of children, so he refused to merchandise Gumby in the 1950s. After receiving thousands of letters from fans begging for Gumby toys, Art finally relented and released the first Gumby toy in 1964, which was modeled after the puppets in the '60's episodes. Gumby is approximately 6" tall.
