Notice in like The Muppet Show and The Muppet Movie, the Muppets have sticks too move they're arms. I think in Muppet films from 1999+ they don't...well, they do. But you can't see them. Just wondering...since I'm a new fan...How do they do that? :big_grin:

first off welcome....Arm rods are what they are called over the years The Muppets have gradually started to digitally remove the Arm Rods you can tell as years go on the muppets move their arms more...in more recent years even Human arms have been digitally fixed to not have those extra sleeves
