Cake Time?

I didn't make this one...

My cool nephew did with some help from his cool mom. It was my birthday gift last year!

Fozzie - From The Collection

Elmwood's had a crazy busy week... So instead of posting a puppet I made this Saturday I'm posting one from the collection I haven't yet...

Fozzie Bear

From the Collection

Although I had this when I was a kid, this is not the one. The Fozzie I had disappeared years and years ago.

This guy was a gift from Elmwooder Alex and his wife Marie.

They actually found him and a matching Fisher Price Kermit at a Savers.... And it'a amazing how good of shape they are both in. I still have my old childhood Kermit, but it's really cool to have another in the collection.

Means the world to me that Marie and Alex thought of me, and got these puppets for me.

Thanks you two.

Here's as pic of the Kermit, too!

Also, thank you "Debbie Fisher"...

I have no idea who you are, but your name is on a piece of masking tape inside Fozzie. So, thank you Debbie for hardly playing with these puppets! Cuz now I can!

Orange Cat Puppet Kit

Folkmanis Puppets is a toy puppet manufacturer that also makes this cute kits, like the one above.

I got this one, cuz it's a puppet, and a cat. Two things I love, and decided to make it for fun

It's pretty neat that the packaging turns inside out and is a stage that can be colored!

The puppet it's self is already put together, like above. You just add the features

The glue this one came with was pretty much useless. SO if you get one of these kits I'd recommend using a glue gun...

Pretty cute if I say so!

And all colored and done!

Kermit -2014 - The Collection

Kermit the Frog

Hand Puppet 2014

So over the past three years I've pretty much stopped collecting toy puppets.

I still love them, but I just haven't found one that has grabbed me and screamed
"BUY ME!"

I did get another "Whatnot", but this time the Toy R Us version. I 'll post it later…

Then this guy…

With "Muppet Most Wanted" coming out in March some new Muppet toys hit the stores. And I saw this guy at Toys R Us… And wow. What a good likeness! Had to have it to add to the collection.

So I got him home and put him next to the Kermit I got as a kid in the 1970's.

I then decided to get back into puppet collecting.

But only Kermit puppets

I love Kermit. He's the reason I fell in love with puppetry…

I have three different Kermit at this point (not counting finger puppets)… Let the hunt begin!
