Has anyone noticed that the Doozers' noses are either pink or yellow? Is there a reason that the designers picked those two colors and only those two colors?

Well this is just my opinion. I think they reason why they probably did that was to make the Doozers look like invividuials. If they all had the same colour noses they would look like clones under those helmets, but that's just a long shot. :)

They only had those kinds of M&Ms when they were building the puppets. It's true! Umm... yeah! True!:smirk:

Maybe it was intended to be a genetics thing. Pink noses were more common as they were brought on by the presence of a dominate nose color gene while yellow noses were less common as they were present because they were recessive.

I'm not sure if you're kidding, but that actually makes sense! Anyway, I have another Doozer question. I was taking the FR trivia quiz in the Guides, and one of the questions was "Which of the following colors is not a common color for a Doozer helmet? Blue, green, pink, or orange?" I guessed orange and got it wrong; the answer was green. I don't ever remember seeing a Doozer wearing an orange helmet.

The only times the Doozers were ever seen to wear orange helmets was in the Fraggle Rock Books. Particularly in "What do Doozers do?".

I don't remember seeing ones in blue helmets, or maybe they're just a minority compared to the yellows and pinks.

As for the pink/yellow nose scheme, my guess is probably that it was simple design esthetics, that they contrasted best with the characters' green hues.

I can't find any shots with a blue helmet though.
