    Im old, and have seen the downfall of craftsmanship. People can say im stuck in the past, and im ok with that, because i still use modern things. My house and most things in it are from the early 1900s, and unlike IKEA things, they last. Like your Dummy, you can see the craftsmanship that went into it.

      In his bio he wrote he doesn't like gimmicks in his act, which this kinda is. He mostly does them just for "entertainment", but not for his kind of comedy. Like the five voices and drinking while speaking bit. I assume if he'd resurrect him/them, only as a side part of his act, as an attraction.

    • @AvengerII
      @AvengerII 2 года назад +1

      @@TheThatoneguy12121 Jeff makes his puppets simpler in general to AVOID having breakdowns and to control the weight. This ultra-complicated puppet has to weigh a ton! I think these are the reasons you don't see those puppets anymore.
      The water lines were also disconnected probably to keep that puppet from corroding or getting soggy. It is wood and parts will absorb moisture or trap it and rot over time. It's an antique piece; I doubt he'll ever perform with it again.
      Jeff is close to 60 and although he's in excellent shape for his age he tries not to stress himself so he keeps the puppets light, too. If they're gonna do something unusual, he builds that function into the puppet like he did Walter's nephew/grandson?, Url, with the iPhone thumbs. He doesn't make his puppets utility knives to make his life easier.

      @@AvengerII First off thank you for the in depth response! I appreciate it. I never really thought of how much those older dummies must weigh. I just wonder how often it was used in a months time versus nowadays like with how Jeff performs. It's amazing that it's in the condition it is. I was getting a bit nervous when he was pulling at the wrong tooth! Haha

    It's a true piece of history as well as art. Hand Crafted figures today are much more quiet than those of the past & the sound today makes a huge difference in the technology. The craftmanship of these models were above the time if ya think about it! Getting finer with age is something that can now be achieved! Good Luck & Best Wishes :-)

    Apparently quite expensive as this one auctioned for between $20,000 and $25,000. Only 30 known to exist, so apparently Jeff Dunham owns 10% of the worlds collection of these… impressive!
