Making the Perfect Yoda Puppet Replica

Creature effects artists Nick Maley worked on Stuart Freeborn's team to create the original Yoda puppets for The Empire Strikes Back. Over 40 years later, Nick has embarked on a journey to recreate that Yoda puppet using molds of surviving parts of the original, and to preserve the work and stories of his fellow effects artists who worked on this iconic character.
