Folkmanis® Dragon in Turret Puppet
Spring 2015 ToysReview:
This pop-up puppet is bedazzling with its shiny purple skin and metallic body parts that are all housed inside a rock-walled turret. The arms can move not only when the baby dragon is fully extended above the turret, but they can also protrude through the window-like openings in the turret's walls when the dragon is hidden inside. As turrets are often associated with medieval times, young players can exercise their imaginations and use this puppet's versatility to conjure up hours of creative stories and playtime adventures.
