Has anyone attempted to gut a Master Replica Puppet and make it into an actual puppet?

(I did a search on the forum and couldnt find anything on the subject.)

Someone "disected" a replica Kermit- I believe- and sent the photo to Sean Johnson at Swazzle:

I can't imagine someone going through all this work to not make a puppet version.

Now that I think of it I believe I did see someone's puppet using the pattern...I just can't remember who. Sorry I couldn't be any help.

You may have to be a member of Flickr to see the photo- if you do just type in "Kermit the frog disected" in Google Image search and you should see it. The photo is of pieces of green fabric "stuck" to a cord board and a foam armature of ol' Kermit...poor dude!
