Funny you should use that expression. It has been used by computer 
animators:
from a NYT article on Pixar:
On screen, computer-generated humans have often seemed stiff and 
plastic - one animator described it as "a marionette-made-out-of-glass' 
quality."
Always striving for the hyper naturalism, these animators. Why bother, 
IMHO, just hire an actor.

A picture of a marionette made out of glass can be seen (scroll down):
