A whole character starts with a great foundation! Meet the Boopos Blank Table Top Puppet, Squash Model: a professionally made, full-body customizable puppet with a responsive jaw mechanism, ready for your imagination.

Whether you're creating a quirky character for the stage, a memorable personality for the screen, or a puppet that's entirely your own, Squash gives you a professionally engineered starting point. Customize the look, build the personality, and bring your creation to life.

Skip the Engineering. Get Straight to Creating.

The hardest part of puppet making isn't coming up with a character. It's figuring out how to make that character work.

If you've ever lost hours trying to get a jaw mechanism to move just right, you know how frustrating the engineering can be. Boopos Blank Puppets were created to take that frustration out of the fabrication process.

Designed by veteran film fabricator Sam Carter, whose credits include Stranger Things, Black Panther, and The Hunger Games, Boopos gives you a professionally made foundation without all the trial and error. We've handled the engineering so you can focus on the best part: creating your character.

Why Choose a Boopos Blank Table Top Puppet?

Full-Body Creative Freedom

Start with the Squash tabletop puppet foundation and customize your character from head to toe. Add foam, fur, fleece, fabric, clay, paper mache, or other materials to create the look and personality you've imagined. Your puppet, your design, your rules.

Professional-Grade Durability

This isn't a novelty toy. Boopos puppets are built with performance in mind, offering a durable, professionally made foundation for creative projects, stage performances, and screen work.

Smooth, Responsive Jaw Mechanism

A great puppet needs to do more than look the part. The Squash model features a smooth, responsive jaw mechanism designed to support expressive movement, clean lip-sync, and engaging character performance.

Designed to Be Serviceable

Puppets need maintenance and upkeep, especially after plenty of making and performing. Boopos are designed to be accessible and easier to service and repair, helping you keep your character ready for the next performance.

Snoot

Is it a dog?

A cat?

A Lizard?

You get to decide who it becomes.

WHY START WITH A

BOOPOS BLANK PUPPET?

By the time you start, you're halfway done.

Before creating a character, a puppet maker has to figure out the mechanics of the puppet that want to build. 

How does it need to move? 

How do its pieces fit together?

How does its mouth mechanism work? 

These are all questions that have to be answered before getting anywhere near character design.

The answer to those questions is a Boopos Blank puppet.

You begin with a professionally designed puppet foundation so you can spend more of your time on the part you actually came for:

creating your character.
