Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a great puppet! It is not as big as I thought it would be, but if it were any larger it would extend past my elbow and make it difficult to control. From head to top of the tail is as long as my arm to the elbow, the tail is almost as long as the body. I would guess that it is close to lifesize, but not a lot of stuffing, so it is not heavy. The tail also has "beads" in it to weight it down so it hangs properly - nice touch. Most of the puppet is made with craft fur. The red on its chest and legs has black "roots" which gives it a "real" look. The beak and feet are made out of black vinyl that is a little stiff, so it is durable but a little hard to control. The space for your hand in the beak is a little large (for a woman's hands), so that makes it also hard to control, but there was some paper in there when it arrived - maybe I was supposed to leave that in? The tail and legs cover the armhole nicely, so it looks real. There are also little holes built into its legs so you can make him dance!
Overall, this is another great puppet by Folkmais. I am very pleased with my purchase. I bought this item for my Church VBS and everyone I have showed it to loves it!! I highly recommend it!
