What comes with an Attack Line Puppet?
Each Attack Line Puppet from VFX Creates is designed to provide a complete, immersive experience for users. When you purchase an Attack Line Puppet, you receive:

- Puppet Master Sound System: This system is preloaded with specially designed audio tracks to add an extra layer of immersion and fright. It ensures that your puppet not only looks realistic but sounds authentic as well.
- Storage Rack: To help you store your puppet safely when not in use, a sturdy rack is included. This rack is perfect for keeping your puppet in great condition and ready for its next performance.

Do you have hands or fists in different skin tones?

Both our Attack Line Puppets and Crate Creatures come with fake hands and fists designed to look like your own hand, helping to maintain the illusion while your real hand operates the puppet from inside.
To ensure the best match, please add a note to your order specifying your desired skin tone. Additionally, we recommend contacting us directly and sending natural light photos of your hand. While we cannot guarantee a perfect match, we will do our utmost to get as close as possible to your skin color.
