As we continue to experiment with stick controls (Figmys), we wanted to show you some things that would never have been possible with traditional Soft Sculpture.<\/p>\n

Here is Gus.<\/p>\n

Can you imagine getting your hand in that neck?<\/p>\n

We just wanted you to get a feel for what your imagination can do when you are operating outside the box. Gus is a great character for using at school shows and birthday parties. He is loaded with insecurities and personality glitches. He absolutely refuses to give up his shell, because to him it represents Home, Warmth, Safety, Security and Bullies can’t get to him as long as he has his shell. Despite the fact that he long ago outgrew his shell, he still clings to it for his security blanket.<\/p>\n

Gus is a very simple character having only mouth movement on his Head Stick, and will be a great addition to your show.<\/p>\n

See his video to get a sense of his movement capability.<\/p>\n

Keep the comments coming. They inspire us to keep trying new things.<\/p>\n

\nOne thing we don’t want to forget
<\/strong>
\nBetween now and our next post, we have a very special day coming up. Thanksgiving. As we begin to count our Blessings, we don’t want to forget that we consider each of you to be among our blessings. Yes it is business, but to us it is far more than that. It is about considering ourselves to be blessed with the friendship of each of you and for that we are truly Thankful. We wish all of you the most blessed of Thanksgiving days as you spend it with those who are closest to you.<\/p>\n
