This topic has been hashed over many times on many discussion sites but I actually got an email from a relative new comer to the vent world and of course he wanted to know which was best a wooden figure or a Fiberglass figure. I had to laugh when I saw him ask about fiberglass because it seems that that is one of the materials that has really gone to the wayside with the many resins that are now available to produce the cast heads.
Now as everyone knows I myself love wood figures, and it especially tickles my funny bone when I see ventriloquists using a cast figure and talk about it as being wood or their wooden friend. I will mention no names but it is rampant. Why on earth would they not use a real wooden figure before saying those things? Your guess is a good as mine.
