Muppets' Arm Rods

[Punch'n'Judy]

And indeed removable legs and tails, again attached with press studs.

 

[shtick]

press studs?

 

[Phantom]

No offense but I don't swing that way...


Boo, that was just bad...

 

[Show and Tell]

Ravafrackle, are they simply bent into a loop and inserted into a pocket in the muppet's hand? Would you have any photos to show an example?

Ravagefrackle, Did you have an answer to this? Do you have any pictures of this bent arm rod?

 

[Was Once Ernie]

The ones I saw were just an "L" shape with the short side of the "L" inserted into the wrist. I have a picture of Bert laying on the table with his arm rod pulling out and cotton batting coming out the hole in his hand.

 

[minor muppetz]

For a few years after I learned that the Muppets were puppets, I used to always wonder how the muppets could change into different outfits without the arm wires getting in the way of the sleeves.
