    Female Muppets

    How come there are so few female muppets? I guess the obvious answer is that most of the Muppeteers are male, but even so... All I could think of were: Piggy Annie Sue Hilda Janice Camilla but surely there must be more. Andrew

    Your Top Twelve for 2005

    My wants would be Piggy as Wonderpig and maybe some of the alternative reality Muppets from Merry Xmas TV movie: ;) Club Scooter with cage to dance in :confused: :eek: Bunsen and Beaker as bouncers and how could I forget - the complete Electric Mayhem Riverdance set ;-) And if there's...

    Muppet DVDs: Widescreen vs. Pan and Scan

    Don't you mean "widescreen"? ;-) Ooops :o - yes I do! So why is MCC in fullscreen when MTI isn't - that doesn't make sense? Also from what I remember the print seemed a bit muddy and dark. I'm hoping it'll get shown on TV again this year in all its glory :) Andrew

    Muppet DVDs: Widescreen vs. Pan and Scan

    Widescreen VS Pan and Scan In USA are people actually able to get widescreen TVs yet or have they not caught on? Last time I was there I don't remember seeing any. UK is much, much bigger on widescreen TVs, so no black bars. Well I do get black bars when I watch "fullscreen" DVDs!!! The...

    UK Disney Store now stocking Muppets!

    Disney Stores tend to be found in the larger towns across the UK. London has one, so if you visit there you should be OK! Also if you do go to London, Hamleys is worth checking out as they usually have muppet plushes in stock. Sometimes they have the "older" stuff like the sporting Kermits...

    Muppets series 8 in London

    London Forbidden Planet (www.forbiddenplanet.com) is your best bet (you can also order online from them should you wish). Also there's a comic shop along the Charing Cross Road (near VinMagCo shop) that's currently selling them. Expect to pay in the region of £10.99 to £12.99 per figure...

    Muppet Babies comic

    I found a copy of the first issue of this in a local comic store - did it ever run for long or was it a one off? Andrew

    UK Disney Store now stocking Muppets!

    I went into the Disney Store yesterday (Guilford) to find that they are now stocking a range of Muppety goodness. They've had T-shirts for a while now (although all seem to be skinny fit size!) but now they've got plushes. My favorite item was an Animal :halo: cushion (£10) plus a range of...

    Statler and Waldorf go X-rated!

    Well... kind of! In the UK the third series of the bizzare Bo Selecta is underway, this time with couple of Muppet spoofs. The main one is that 2 guys are dressed up like S and W making occasional comments on the show, but much, much, much dirtier than the Muppets!! The second is a...

    Muppets in the Garden

    They are molded on with the current Muppets logo on the back. They're not painted or glazed. If you get all four, it should come to just under £20. Andrew

    Muppets in the Garden

    I think I've found possibly the oddest Muppet merchandise that I ever saw. In my local B&Q (big garden centre in UK!) there was a selection of 4 different Muppet terracotta plant pots. The biggest one was Kermit, about a foot high, then Piggy, Animal and Fozzie (a tiny little pot). Now I...

    Casting classic musicals with Muppets

    Pigita Well my friend told me that as a wee young thing, he did a puppet show with Miss Piggy to the Evita LP. And of course she's make a great Eva :) I've always loved Jesus Christ Superstar, but I don't think the world could handle Kermit in the main role somehow! Andrew

    UK release for Muppet Party Cruise

    :) :excited: Muppet Party Cruise is out on Playstation 2 in the UK at last, am very, very excited! Only £19.99 from Game (plug, plug). I'm an ardent fan of Muppet Racemania (no other Muppet game comes close!) but am hoping this will take an easy second place to that. Andrew

    Dilemma

    Go for the plushes, they're nice! I got a great looking Miss Piggy complete with fur stole (ish) - very glam! Andrew

    Tdk

    I just picked up a very cheap CD-ROM version of On With The Show. Oh. Oh dear. The phrase "wasted opportunity" comes to mind. I like the ideas of some of the games, but it's all quite basic and (on the PC) very poorly excuted. The Electric Mayhem game would have great potential I guess as a...

    Will Muppet Party Cruise come out in the UK?

    Does anyone know if Muppet Party Cruise is getting a UK release? It's mentioned briefly on the official Playstation 2 UK page, but gives no date. Anybody got any ideas :concern: ??? Andrew :D
