Vtg 2003 Gemmy Bongo Gorilla Battery Operated Drumming Plush Toy In Original Box
Here is a highly sought-after, nostalgic piece of 2000s novelty pop-culture history: the Gemmy Industries Bongo Gorilla. Released in 2003, this classic battery-operated, animated plush toy features a fun, music-loving gorilla ready to drop a beat on his attached bongo drums! This particular unit comes complete in its original factory display box, making it an excellent find for vintage toy collectors, retro animatronic hobbyists, or anyone looking to relive a piece of early-2000s charm.
Product Features & Entertainment:
- Animated Motion: When activated, this musical gorilla dynamically moves his head, mouth, and arms to mimic realistic, rhythmic drumming action.
- Audio & Music Tracks: Plays classic audio track favorites like "Bang On The Drum All Day" or "Love Machine" accompanied by his signature fun jungle catchphrases!
- Premium Materials: Features incredibly soft, detailed black/brown faux fur plush detailing.
- Power Source: Runs on standard AA batteries (battery compartment is easily accessible on the bottom/back under the plush flap).
Condition Report:
- Plush & Mechanics: Excellent cosmetic shape. The fur is clean, vibrant, and completely free of matting, fading, stains, or odors.
- Original Box: The packaging is present and intact, displaying bright retro graphics and clear plastic windows. It shows minimal shelf wear, corner scuffs, or light creasing typical for a vintage cardboard retail box from over two decades ago.
Item is in its original packaging so I am unable to test without taking it out of the packaging.

- Shipped inside a sturdy secondary shipping box with ample bubble wrap or packing paper to prevent any crush damage to the vintage Gemmy retail display box during transit.
