    My Muppet Replicas

    Wow, they're getting better and better! Gonzo was great, and you totally improved your skills with each one. Rizzo's looking the best yet.

    Kermit Adidas Shoes coming in November

    I'm so shocked that people consider these shoes expensive!!!! They're like half the price of regular shoes. I think the cheapest sneakers I've bought (since I've been working and buying them myself) were around $150. As for the look of the shoes, I really like them minus the collar--without...

    Will pay $800 for a new MR Kermit...

    I don't know what's going on with these eBay prices. I saw 3 end throughout the summer on eBay, all below $300. When did people start thinking Kermit sells for north of $500, let alone with such a disasterous box? I really doubt either of those will sell, even so close to Christmas. Don't...

    LOL, thanks. Now I just have to wait to get home and see it (Facebook is blocked at my work). Thanks for sharing!

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    They didn't start preorder yet, did they? I stay on top of this thread, but I could've missed something. 1,000 is a decent number to make. They'd probably be better off making fewer of them, but that's coming from a collector, not a marketer. I could be so wrong. ETA: Rizzo is priced at a...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Honestly, I just hope they don't overindulge on the quantities. The real problem with the Muppets posers is there aren't that many people who want to OWN one, so making so many left too many on shelves, bringing down the value. If there are only 500 Rizzos, I guarantee they'll sell and people...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    I honestly didn't know SW collectors were that crazy for anything SW that they'd spend hundreds of dollars on something that's only half SW. If you really believe they'd buy Muppets just because they're dressed like SW characters, then that's not a big deal. Maybe it WOULD help keep the line...

    I agree with dwmckim: these forums are for companies to get a feel for opinions, so I'm going to share mine. SW Muppets are a total NO GO. I'm someone who doesn't really care about the price of a collectible; if I want it, I'll figure out a way to pay for it. I wouldn't pay for Muppets...

    Eat the Rich?

    I just want to say that words are constantly misconstrued in this email age. Without body language, facial expressions, vocal tones, we humans lose about 95% of our communication tools. People misread one word, and they go off half-cocked. I see it happen on forums ALL THE TIME. I'm surprised...

    To answer your question, please keep reporting, muppetperson. You clearly have some inside scoop, which keeps me checking in here for updates. I'm not a bored rich person (by ANY means) but I do value my collectibles... and am considering a Doozer, LOL. So far you've brought much good news...

    You make really good points, muppetperson. Too bad you're most definitely right--I'd LOVE to have Fraggle replicas. Especially Uncle Matt.

    Hmm, still no news, huh? Do any of you close to the inside feel like it's getting closer to the pre-order? That limited time discount sounds awesome. I hope it happens.

    The only thing I have to add is that FP charged a lot more (after conversion) for my Chucky replica than Sideshow, the American distributor, did. My GUESS is Rizzo will sell for somewhere between $400 and $500, but I always thought that. So long as he's a great product, with no eye placement...

    Animal collar replica from the Muppet Movie

    Hi, lithiumbrain. Your inbox is full. I tried to send you a message asking to get on on board for one of your silver collars. If there's a spot on your next batch, that would be great. If not, I'll wait until round 3. Thank you :)
