"Uncle Harry"


Hi, Clinton: It’s been a long time, but I had purchased a figure from you something like 10 years ago or so. I've been inactive from Ventriloquism for the last 5 or 6 years (had a nasty form of Tendinitis in my hand that took a long time to resolve). I've had no problems with the figure I bought from you, and have just picked up a used figure that may have been one of your figures that was tweaked a bit (see photo which was taken at the antique store where I found the figure). I’m tentatively calling him “Uncle Harry”. Eric Hilding

Eric: Yes, the figure was sold by Maher Studios. The catalog name was "Rick E. T. Wobbles" - later shortened to simple "Mr. Wobbles". Created and built by Lovik. A great character you will enjoy using and I believe he'll soon be an audience favorite. I'm sure he's happy to have been rescued from antique display and be going back to work - he's far too young for retirement! Clinton

  1. Being a Lovik figure makes it very valuable. I am advised that the website of dummyworks has come down so I guess we've lost another very fine figure maker.
