    Overweight puppets

    Thanks for the reply. Pretty new to this. Started building/performing in December and this marks my 4th puppet. My first 3 were Monsters built off modified glorified sock puppet patterns and seemed much lighter than my latest, "human" puppet. He can't weigh more than 2 pounds so I think I...

    Overweight puppets

    I'm about 98% finished with my latest puppet and love how he looks but he seems heavy. I'm pretty fit but after a few minutes, I can feel fatigue creeping up, particularly in my shoulder. I might just need more time and practice to work up tolerance but wonder if I went with materials that are...

    Vintage Animal sighting

    I was visiting New Orleans over the holiday and saw this awesome vintage Animal on display in a clothing store near Jackson Square. He looks dusty and a bit sun bleached but I'd still love to on him. Gotta love his Saints jersey - I could just hear Animal screaming, "WHO DAT! WHO DAT!"...

    New Muppet Whatnot Kits at Toys R Us

    I got the red hoodie (just because it says whatnots) but also purchased some really cool 6-9 and even 12 month toddler shirt and hoodie outfits that look awesome. Even found a dapper vest, shirt and tie set that my whatnot, Jasper Thibodeaux - Muppet Gigolo is currently rocking.

    Custom Whatnot Workshop Kit

    @ ilovemuppet4eva : I cut the balls in half then hot glued them to a firm felt. Once the glue set, I cut them off the felt, flush with the ball and applied Velcro to the underside. Whole balls would also probably work for really bulgy eyes.

    Custom Whatnot Workshop Kit

    Thanks guys. I had a lot of fun making the kit. Kinda surprised that Disney hasn't already done some sort of take-home kit for more customizing options. Seems like an easy enough online only type offering. Oh we'll, as a long time toy customizer, I gave up waiting on big manufacturers to give me...

    Custom Whatnot Workshop Kit

    So I bought my two sons Muppet Whatnots from TRU for Christmas but wanted them to have something closer to the FAO Schwartz experience in terms of really customizing their Muppets. The TRU kit comes with a decent assortment of parts but I wanted them to have tons of choices and be able to...
