I like them but with it being that you can only work the right arm on Ernie and left arm on Bert then I wouldn't want them but also you shouldn't be selling puppets of replicas of any type of characters. It's not right but unless Heson don't care or what. Don't know.

Ernie's pretty good, but something's seriously wrong with Bert!

Those are good for replicas. I like them. Wish someone would give them to me. (I don't wanna pay for them, you see).

Really tempted too bid on these... 100 dollars for two puppets is not bad... wish I could see them in person first though.

I built a bert Head that would go great on that bert body. That berts head is not shaped right. I have seen more of his work and it is much better then this set. Which at one time was offered for purchase for $600. We will have to see how long it lasts before ebay pulls it.

I have some puppets from the same builder and I couldn't be happier. They are built so well; as a matter of fact after having the opportunity to see a few of the actual characters on the set of Sesame and observing them up close, the ones that he built are actually made better! They look more like the characters in person than the actual characters do!

I don't understand what you mean. That doesn't really make any sense.

I think they look okay. Ernie is good, Bert not so great. It looks more like Beaker than Bert. He is way too thin in the head. I appreciate the work though. I would love to have something like those but wouldn't want to have to pay that much for em.
