Something New Coming Soon to The Dummy Shoppe

Keep checking the website over the next few weeks. We have decided that we are adding another new section to our puppet catalog.

We have been giving a great deal of thought to those in the next generation of Ventriloquists and have decided to add something just for the younger set (or anyone else who wishes to try one). We realize that the purchase of a new figure can be a large investment for adults (most of whom have other jobs) but it can be overwhelming for the younger folks just trying to get started. That is a problem.

Another major factor for the younger set is something we have observed at ConVENTion year after year. When a child who is between 9-13 years old comes to the booth and picks up an adult sized puppet to play with, it is humorously obvious that an adult size puppet overwhelms a younger person. That is a problem.

Now we have two problems. Here is the solution to both. We are going to be introducing a small line of puppets that we will call “Little Happy Monsters”. Everything in this series will be 22 – 24″ tall as opposed to the typical 34-38″ size of our regular puppets. The younger vent will be able to make a few choices for each selection. They will be able to choose eye color, and color of the puppet itself. When they place an order, they will need to make a deposit of 50% just like the adults. However, because of the reduced size and cost, we will only be sending out pictures of the completed puppets. Just like the adults, the younger Vents will have to make their final payment when they receive pictures. Only when the payment is received will the puppet ship to the customer.

Just like the adult line of puppets, we will not do duplicates, but the differences may not be as obvious as in the adult line.

Now the really neat part of the situation. We are going to be offering the “Little Happy Monsters” for about $200.00 each. The young Vent will have all the benefits of working with a puppet that will have the same feel as the adult line. The new line will have the same level of quality and style.

It will be several weeks in between a heavy load of custom work before JET can complete the first of the line of Little Happy Monsters, so just keep looking at the Website, under “See Our Puppet Catalog”. There will be a new category entitled “- – Little Happy Monsters”. It is coming soon so keep looking or if you want to be one of the first to get yours, just let us know

As always we welcome any suggestions and ideas that you have.

Until next time,

Steve and JET
