I don't know what your abilities are like Shoq but I would in the very first instance consider making my own Puppet. I can't imagine it would be that hard and then I could have exactly the creature I want. If I did not want to start entirley from scratch, I often see nice cuddly toys in charity shops that look like they would be very easy to convert.

I misunderstood when you said a "human arm puppet". I was thinking a puppet that looks like an arm rather than an animal or character.

I wonder if something like that could be made--I picture the puppeteer going behind a screen to get a puppet, but returning without one and starting a dialog with his own hand as if he were wearing a puppet. The audience laughs because he is using an "invisible" puppet, but then the puppeteer takes off the puppet, revealing that he actually HAS been using a puppet.

Interesting concept, but I doubt that realistic enough hands could be made and the puppet hand and arm would by necessity have to be much larger than a real hand and arm. Another wild idea to file away...
