    Building Hand Puppet for Circus, Need Help

    sorry for the lack of a reply here, i have been sick, and away from my computer. any how, it would be helpful to know what the puppet needs to do, color?size? in the end there isnt much you can do to make it last to long, hopefully your performer will treat the puppet right, and do his...

    Puppety Opinion Please

    my only thought on this is that learning something for yourself, instead of being told is much more important in the long run , it trains your mind to think, and expand, and to find new solutions for things, if you are just told how to do something i dont think u are really learning. but...

    Original Material

    cant beat that reply, by Toastcrumbs,(how are ya buy the way i got your message ) and after reading thru this post i would say that Flocking wasnt meant as a replacement material, more likley it was meant to give the characters from "musicains of Bremen " a different look, while fleece...

    Why isn't Lips always a part of the Electric Mayhem?

    well he was added late in the run of the muppet show, most ikley to give the band a more uniform look and feel, (replacing the what not female trumpet player) i imagine they just didnt bother developing him because he was just sort of a member of the band(sort of like the cool background...

    parody is considered free speech, so when u are making fun of something it is clear that you are not representing that company,. or person, or character. you do need to be careful about it, but generally its is looked upon as being ok.

    Actual Muppet Puppets

    no it isnt, but if your just playing with your friends and not making money off it then i dont think u need to worry, its when you sell your stuff, or advertise that you do birthday partys with (insert muppet name here), then yes you are breaking copyright and trademark laws, of course...

    Actual Muppet Puppets

    i think the main thing is though is that this guy is building and selling puppets that he doesnt own, its wrong on many levels, he might think its ok to do, but if he were to design his own show and then somebody was selling "replicas"or knock offs with out his approval i bet he would have his...
