Hey Guys!

I stumbled across a very interesting article about the technique of puppetry that was used by Jim on JHH for the bird character Waldo. Simply enough, it's called "Waldo" puppetry.

It includes commentary by Eren Ozker, as well.

Check it out!

"What's A Waldo, Anyway?"

Oohhh..heehee, Yeah, I have been there alot of times before, and about 100 more animatronic sites *G* I LOVE animatronic puppets. I think Chucky is my favorite puppet! *I hope I didn't scare anyone!* :/

If you wanna see really freaky animatronics go to http://www.yagher.com he's the guy behind Chucky, and there's even a picture of Chucky's understructure, too! It's sooo cool!!!
