Update: December 12, 2006
«©NCSX» Japanese manufacturer Sol International makes good on their promise and releases the Animal Crossing finger puppets to market. Measuring a mere 8.80cm or 3.50" in height, a puppet may be mounted on a forefinger, a middle finger, or a thumb. Plug all five fingers from your left hand into the quintet of figures and you have a traveling troupe of plushy puppets that's suitable for street theater performances as well as impromptu demonstrations of your Animal Crossing ken. The characters are as follows, starting from the upper left corner and rotating clockwise: Tanukichi, Bouquet, Totakeke, Porter, and Kapp'n. The quality and attention to detail for each puppet is rather good with cuts of cloth that serve as clothing and little bits of detailing on each animal. For example, since Kapp'n is a turtle, a spotted shell protrudes from his back. A chain sprouts from the top of each puppet which may be linked to a keychain or belt loop. All preorders will ship today and new orders are welcome at US$20 for the complete set of five puppets. View larger photos for this item on the main NCSX website. This document is ©NCSX 2006.
