Excellent quality. Much smaller than thought. Daughter will love it with her puppet theatre from Santa.

He looks and feels great but find me a person (an average person, male or female) who can make his arms move without him looking like he has dislocated his wrists! The arms are way too long and don’t have stiffeners in the bottom section so it’s impossible to have him ‘hold’ things with his hands or even move his hands really. Plus the mouth is really tough to move too. I was disappointed and expected more from Gund.

Pros: quality of the material is good and Elmo’s expression looks always fun/happy.
Cons: It’s hard to maneuver as it is, but I put rolled card paper inside the arms to harden them to make them easier to move.
The mouth is made of a hard plastic that is too hard to open/close, but I found that you can use one hand to move the arms and open the upper part of the mouth and another hand to hold the lower part of the mouth. With practice, it works OK.
Can’t do Elmo to make a sad or puzzingly face, but I guess he is supposed to be always happy!
The body of the puppet should be stuffed so Elmo would look more realistic when hands are in.
I guess it won’t fit well with very large hands.
Have fun.

I’m not particulary please with how this hand puppet handles. This is due in large part because the stuffing for the head on the inside constricts your hand, and the arms. . . . forget about using them they’re worthless and pointless. However, this is Elmo we’re talking about not Oscar the Grouch. Everyone loves Elmo, just like he loves you!!!!
