As their name suggests, the Eyeball makes for a strange yet striking visage and an extremely effective marionette to manipulate. Costumed from the textured scraps and rovings of preceding puppet generations, the range of kookiness and colour is a fun world to dive into.

By working with some basic archetypes and alternating through gender, age and cultural influences, I developed a classic range of differing characters which are a continuing part of the Squeaking Tribe canon today. As familiar as these characters are to me now, I keep the joy alive by incorporating more details and personal quirks than I did in the past, so each one still retains its own unique identity. For the budget-minded, these are a good starting point to gauge your interest without betting the farm. A perfect launch-pad for the young ones, too!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eMarionette in doll form is approximately 25cm in height or 60cm when strung.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Squeaking Tribe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50512518775088,"sku":"CLA0007-2","price":75.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/1756\/9584\/files\/IMG_6351.jpg?v=1768180759","url":"https:\/\/squeakingtribe.com\/products\/eyeball-dude-classic-marionette-puppet-copy-1","provider":"The Squeaking Tribe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
