My thoughts exactly!

Well done James, everything looks great! I also really dug the Roach and Lola.

So do you work at the workshop, or did you just make these for yourself?

Looks like you have a lotta fun at work, keep it up!

The Smart Head Project was a expeiriment in creating walkaround charecters that would act more like the puppets, unline the Live Sesame Street Shows, these walkaround were animatronic, they ahd all the servos and computer hook ups that have been used in feature films, they could be performed live, or have a prerecorded performance track , i think the only time they were used was fore thr premerire of "MUPPETS FROM SPACE", was a pretty quick build, we ended up working staight thru the Memorial day Holiday to get them finished so that they could be shipped to LA, for the films opening.
