Back in the hazy days of the early 90s, Nintendo used puppet versions of Fox McCloud, Slippy, Falco and Peppy to promote its then-upcoming release of SNES classic Star Fox (or Starwing, if you must). After the campaign had run its course, however, the puppets faded from the public eye (though, not from our memories). But, what actually happened to them?

This post brings back some great nostalgia! It’s fascinating to hear about the iconic promotional puppets and their connection to the Star Fox series. Exciting times ahead with the rumors of a new game!
