Subject: [Puptcrit] Rubbery Figures


I know the UK Television had Rubbery figures but did the US?
They were foam latex puppets of political characters that obviously lampooned the political order of the day...like a political cartoon in the newspaper.....mostly done on a low low budget they were quick, direct and lots of fun.
Here is a link that I have just found that discusses the making of and has LOTS of examples.... like this one....
