Marvin Suggs and his Muppaphone

Marvin Suggs is a puppet musician in the world of Jim Henson's The Muppets.

Marvin Suggs is a blue, "Whatnot" Muppet that wears a frilly, multicolored shirt. He is best known for "playing" an instrument known as a Muppaphone (a group of small, round, furry Muppets that emit a tonal "ow" when Marvin strikes them on the head with his mallet). Marvin Suggs is voiced by Frank Oz.
