Current Projects...

Hi everyone. I just wanted to let everyone know that there are a few projects that I'm currently working on that hopefully I will have available soon.

The first project is an Ultimate Yeti. This Yeti will feature an absolutely fantastic faux fur that looks so real you'll swear it came from a real Yeti!!! If you add an Ultimate Yeti to your Yeti Family Collection, you'll have three great puppets that will absolutely knock your audience out!!!

The second project is a Dog. He'll be based on some of the other heads that I have now, but he'll be furry and have ears, like all good dogs should. Basically, think Dart but furry and with floppy ears, and you'll have a good idea of where the Dog will be coming from.

Finally, I have this amazing fabric that I picked up a while back that I've been waiting to do something with. Well, my wife has helped me pick a style for it, and now I'm just waiting on her to come up with a name and I'll be making him and offering him. He'll be similar to Yeti, Sr but with this amazingly crazy fur and a surprise for his eye design.

Keep checking back often, you never know when there will be an update!!!!

Thanks for your support everyone!!!!

New Character...Introducing, Dion!!!!

Hi everyone. Thanks for checking out my site and looking at this new creation.

I wanted to post a video of this new guy, because pictures don't really do him justice.

Here's Dion.



He's a plant. Dion is actually short for Dionaea Muscipula Maximus, which is basically "Giant Venus Flytrap." I don't really know where Dion came from. All I know is that there's this little dog that lives down the street from me that is always in my yard going to the bathroom. One day he was near the side of my house where there's a bit of overgrowth and I went to chase him away, and when I got around that corner he was gone. The only thing left was his leash, which was near the ground in front of this odd looking plant. As I walked near the plant, I noticed that it looked really odd.

I dug it out of the ground and put it into this blue bucket that I have, and that is where Dion is to this day.

Dion is a GREAT puppet. He's got loads of personality, is completely different than anything else that I've done, and is something that you aren't going to see very often. I think he'd be great for some stand up comedy or some walk around comedy. The cool thing about a plant that's a puppet, you don't have to even give it a voice at all. It's voice could basically be controlled only by it's actions, which means you wouldn't need any kind of ventriloquist skills or anything like that.

I'm still working out the pricing of Dion, but I'm thinking that he's going to fit into the Ultimate Line of puppets that I have, which would put him in the area of Javelin. With that said, I'm seriously thinking about adjusting the price for the Ultimate Line altogether, so if you're interested in a Dion puppet, let me know and we can work something out.

Thanks for checking him out!!!!
