Cartoon Silicone Animal Finger Puppets Monster Storytelling Doll Theater Soft Doll Kids Toys Gift Fingers Gloves Fingertip (Style A)

I lost count of how many of these things I've purchased trying to find the ones that actually jiggle when you shake them. I bought "vintage" monster finger puppets off Ebay only to find they were hard plastic. Then I purchased "silicone" monster finger puppets off this platform only to have hard plastic, then the glow in the dark ones and the other batch.. I never knew what I had signed-up for when I decided to get this childhood toy for my friend in Japan. I've actually been working with glow in the dark paint recently so I decided to add this to the finger puppets.I was adding this to the details unique to each monster, but it turned out just applying the paint to the eyes and teeth was more effective. It also helps on the claws if they have a fairly humorous flappy motions when jiggled so they can be visible in the dark. Otherwise save your effort.I thought the paint would rub off immediately but it turns out that it sticks pretty well. However after the 2nd night I'm starting to see some breakage, so I will probably apply a light clear coat to them to retain the adhesion better.Even though I'm fairly immature, finger puppets were not really my idea. I can't tell you the shame that passed through me like a ghost after Alexa declared loudly "A package placed 2 days ago containing "Finger toys" will arrive today"Regardless, The monsters themselves are great; pretty expensive for toys, but a win in my book.

Very cool!
