in thread appending arrays

That will get the data off the end of @array2, not the beginning. Use shift instead of pop.

Update: Nothing to see here. Move along. (Must read more carefully next time).

I wanted to explore how Perl's closures can be manipulated, and ended up creating an object system by accident.

    Err... Isn't that what the OP wanted? It works fine for me with the OP's data. OK, it destroys @array2, as Abigail-II pointed out. Just for fun, here's a solution that destroys both of the original arrays:

    die "Arrays of different lengths" unless @array1 == @array2;
my @array3 = map { shift ( @array1 ) . pop ( @array2 ) } @array1;
