Even, then, it is not natural that a living thing has wobbly ears, being that I do not know any human or mammal whose ears wobble when they move.

 I guess creatures like Yoda could evolve differently in galaxies far, far, away...  ;)

But seriously, I know what you mean with the slight 'vibration' thing, but considering what Adywan's now done with his latest tweaks, I personally think this is no biggie anymore.  It's perhaps a pity that this hadn't been implemented into the CGI Yoda ears in the prequels, even, to tie it in with the wonderful OT version better.   

By the way Monroville, you had some interesting comments on the whole Tauntaun eyes / ears / nose thing there, but unlike the production photo shown above, the actual footage only seems to have the briefest, moving glimpses of the likes of the nostrils, so it's none too obvious.  And although a lot of it is a moot point now, I liked reading some of your recent AT-AT battle 'what if' ideas too.

Anyway, the main thing I want to say is -  THE YODA 'PUPPET' BLINKS AT LAST!!

Wonderful, and more than once at that, during the latest clip.  Thankyou very much Adywan, as this has been a great start to the New Year where your project is concerned.  The subtlety of where you positioned them is perfect, and doesn't detract from the look of the excellent OT Yoda one bit. 

There's just one other place I'd have liked to have seen just one more in your scene, and that is at some point during when he walks sideways to our viewpoint, as he says "...for 800 years have I trained Jedi...my own council will I keep on who is to be trained."   However, this has turned out more than I could have wished for, and I imagine that there will be other subtle ones in some of his others scenes too, in future.  :)   Excellent stuff.
