Puppets are a running gag in Invader Zim.

List Of Instances[]

Professor Membrane made a puppet of himself. Later in the episode, he and the puppet talked to Dib as he was leaving the house to stop Zim from destroying Earth.

For Probing Day, the Almighty Tallest told Invader Slacks to perform a puppet show depicting on how he plans to destroy the planet. Since Slacks wasn't prepared for this, he failed inspection and got a pummeling. The next Invader due for inspection, Invader Sqood , was more successful.

The Tallest created and operated marionettes of themselves to play a prank on Zim; even though the puppets were of poor quality (Tallest Purple's puppet's head fell off), Zim either fell for it hook, line and sinker, or simply chose not to comment on the absurdity.

Red has a boxing hand puppet of himself.

When Earth is pulled through the Florpus Hole and starts colliding with other realities, one of them involves all the characters turning into puppets. Later, after the Massive flies into the Florpus, the Tallest are shown to have been turned into puppets as well (which is ironic, given their previously established love for them) and left in a reality that's on fire.
