The eBay auction, which ends at 12.19pm on Thursday, has drummed up a huge amount of interest in the costumed character that rose to fame on the 1990s TV show Noel's House Party.
A BBC original Mr Blobby costume has attracted more than £60,000 in an online auction.
The piece of TV memorabilia, that found fame on Noel's House Party, is being sold by eBay user blobby01, and with a day to go until the auction ends, the costume has reached a whopping £61,501.It was made by the BBC's costume supplier, but the show was cancelled before it could be delivered. The seller wrote:"Neither the broadcaster or the BBC's production team wanted it - so it sat in my office until a move meant it came home with me some years ago."Some extra attention is also needed to fix a crack in one of the plastic eyes and to secure the character's iconic bright yellow polka-dot bow tie.
Sadly the sale of the suit does not include a voice device, which enabled the character to say the word"blobby", and can only be used for personal display use.
