“The Mangle” Hand Puppet
(Five Nights at Freddy’s 2)

Winter 2023 – Prop commission for Anime Los Angeles 19!

I’d always wanted to build a hand puppet prop with an articulated mouth, so this was the perfect opportunity to play!

Made using mostly cardboard and a bit of 2mm EVA foam.
Mouth articulation and movement demonstrated in this video:
