Works In Progress Wednesday - H.R. Puff-n-Stuff


   It's the middle of the week and in the tradition of other amigurumiers (is that a word???, lol) my current Wednesday WIP (work in progress) is for a friend who asked if I could do a H.R. Puff-n-Stuff. She wants to give it to a friend who is a big collector so I have to make sure I get it right.

   Now for anyone who is asking who/what is a H.R. Puff-n-Stuff, well the short answer is that it was a live action childrens show from the 70's.  H.R. Puff-n-Stuff was the main character along with (okay this will date me and require some brain cells to wake up), Witchie Pooh, Sigmund the Sea Monster, and a kid whose name I don't recall. Now if I do remember correctly H.R. is supposed to be a dragon. (Any die hard fans out there please forgive me if I am wrong). I cannot honestly say that I watched the show too much. Scooby Doo and the Peanut's specials were more my thing.

   Above center was the best picture I could find for reference so I hope I have done him justice. Not many actual pics of the back of him were available so I had to go off photos of some of the promo products that were produced in promotion of the show (which I have to say weren't all that great and really kind of scary looking in that some don't seem to be close to the original - sorry).

Have a wonderful week... and Happy Ami,        Shannon
