Question: Is snuffalufagus from sesame street a costume or puppet!?
Answers:
Both - Snaffalufagus is known as a 'costume puppet', whereby someone is inside, covered head to toe in the puppet!. Depending on the puppet, there can be mechanisms inside that are operated by the wearer, or there can be mechanisms that can be operated externally by another puppeteer!. Big Bird, for instance, has a TV screen inside the costume, so that the puppeteer can see what they look like from the camera's perspective!. Some costume puppets, like Bear from Big Blue House, has one arm counterweighted to the other arm, so that the puppeteer only has to move one arm, leaving their other hand free for other mechanisms!.
