Awesome review, Froggie. I like him. I think he's cool. We need more folks who purchase these to put up video. I'd like to see what people are doing with their Whatnots.

The design a puppet section is not on the web site at the moment? Only the Gift section at $130, maybe its just maintenence or there so busy after the appearence on the Today Show?

Only two weeks left til I go to NY and can get my own, (or two)!

Here's a link to a quick video I threw together with my Whatnot. Towards the end you'll see his glasses come loose on the camera left side, yet somehow I was able to throw them back into place!

WOW! That was cool!

I need to make some Youtube videos with my Whatnot puppet. I just wish I knew how to put videos on Youtube.

BTW, You've got good taste in music. :sing:

Great Video, and a great puppet, So many choices to choose from I dont know which one to make, I am definetly making a female whatnot but cant decide what male whatnot to make, I guess it will come to me when I go to FAO.

Just one comment, the arm seems to be the wrong way up, the thumb is pointing downwards and not up, is that where the opening is on the arm or can you put it on either side?

Yeah, I noticed that too. There's only one opening per hand but I suppose the fingers (which have wires in them) could be moved to make the pinky the thumb.

I just got mine yesterday from FAO, the store experience was almost as fun as having the puppet to bring home! I posted some photos from the store, and I'll have one up of my puppet soon.
