When got them back, they all worked well, including protruding tongue, with slot for lever from top to botton of jaw, pivoted in middle and with a spring so that when lever moved back at the bottom the tongue moved forward at the top, it too pivoted to the lever. What I disliked most was the ugly slot so clearly visible under the chin whenever head raised. The same thing goes for the upper lip movement which before had fine curvature at the "V" middle of lip below nose trough that prevented a hairlip look but afterwards with metal band, no trough, and kid leather gave it that very look destroying the fine art of the sculptured piece. I would not have either in a ventriloquial figure.LeeDeanhttp://www.google.com/profiles/VentriloquistKriketnoreply@blogger.com
