Hi ho everyone! I have a couple of questions to ask. I'm a Muppet fan but didn't watch the Muppet Show a lot, and watched mainly the movies. Anyway, here are my questions:

1. What is a Frackle?

2. What is a Whatnot Muppet?

Thanks! :cool: :big_grin:

1. A Frackle is kind of a species of monsters/creatures that really don't have another category. Boppity and Mo are both frackles, one of which appears in Warrick's avatar. I have also concluded that some Frackles are alien by nature, seeing that Gonzo was a loner of his kind, categorized as Frackle originally, later called a 'whatever,' and MFS proved him as an alien.

2. Whatnot Muppet is a plain puppet body to which eyes, noses, hair, ears, and/or other features are added for a one-time performance character.
