View Full Version : Gumby and pokey question
We are trying to remember the names of the bad guys or bullies on the Gumby cartoon.
My daughter works at the local SPCA and they have an angry dog they want to name after that character.
I told her the members of this forum can come up with an answer to any question. Anyone remember? :)

This is one of the few good uses of Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gumby
I have Gumby and Pokey on my desk at work. :D

The bad guys were Blockheads and there was a dog, not sure he was a bad one but his name was Lowbelly

i just did a search and the original blockheads had no names but
there was a movie about 15 years ago (apparently) that named them
fatbuckle, thinbuckle and no buckle
for my money -- there's no better cheap animation villain than
Mr. Bills Nemesis, SLUGGO

The nemesis were the blockheads - blocks with either a G or a J on the side of their head. Blocks since gumby came from toyland.
There was also Prickle, who was a yellow stegosaurus and Goo who was a female blob of clay with blonde hair, and Mingle.

G and J. No real names and they didn't talk. Lots of Gumby info out on the web, lots of fan sites with more trivia than I ever need to read. :D
