Playtime gets a new star with this teacup dragon puppet. She has a round, plump shape and a curious expression, standing ready for a spot on your desk or shelf. A rod below her body lets you turn her head and work her mouth, so you can bring her personality to life with your own hands.
This design started as an entry for a maker contest celebrating pet-like monsters. The rod mechanism was built so the dragon could move and react like a real companion, not just sit still. You get that same interactive feature in the finished piece, ready to pose and play with on any flat surface.
She works well as a display piece for dragon lovers, monster collectors, or anyone who wants a quirky companion with personality. Each one is made to order in the USA after you place your order.
