I like Steve as a performer. However, the Dark Crystal bit is just full of venom towards a project he himself worked on and was incredibly important to Jim Henson. He rips into it because he was not invited back to work on the Netflix show. It's sad. He gas lights his fans, pretending to be...

How the mighty have fallen.

I honestly thought that they would bring Mira back to life with the bottle of essence. Boy was I wrong. I guess you cant have too many happy endings in a series that we all know eventually ends in the near complete genocide of an entire species. This show is so much more interesting than the...

The movie had a ton of potential, but was ruined by the studio. I'd like to see a directors cut with much of the original story intact, but we didnt get that. It took so long to make and paled in comparison to the hype. Plus it came out in a time when it's core audience doesn't find this...

The Muppets kind of missed the nostalgia boat. Right now 90s nostalgia is in. They werent in their prime then. 80s nostalgia was around its peak when "The Muppets" (2011) came out. 70s nostalgia was big in the early 2000's.

Interesting. I wonder if by unscripted they mean something like a family friendly "puppet up" or a show with a loose premise. Considering all the Marvel and Star Wars shows it is nice to see some room made for a single Muppet show... even if it has no script.... Part of me was hoping for that...

I was looking forward to this ornament as I display them like mini figures, but the flocking.... I liked the digital render they showed with what I thought was texturing in the plastic. Im just not a big fan of flocked stuff. It gets dust over time and sheds too. I may still get this one...

....what...? What the heck was that?

Because celebs doing voices didn't really become a thing until the 90's.

The original movie had the characters dubbed over the puppeteers. Its par for the course.

No. Also, they never owned the Jim Henson Company. They tried, but the deal did not go through before Jim died.

Yeah, they are way behind where they need to be. Plus, Muppet fans tend to be more... frugal....

True, but unfortunately its not. But if we want a shot at one in the future we need all the support we can get for this project. Sadly we are already below the average sign ups per day that we needto hit goal. I would recommend spreading the word to non muppet sights that deal in doll...

Yes, this is not an announcement of a product is already guaranteed to be made, this is a product that only gets made if it gets preorders. If you think you want it order it. If you get it and decide you didnt want it, I am sure there will be people that will buy it from you at inflated...

The good thing is that Hasbro is a bigger name that will get press for this and frankly Sesame Street now is much bigger than the Muppets were when the replicas came out. Also, this looks a lot better.

That is true. The size factor alone, plus the addition of Super Grover stuff? This would already be backed. Apparently they consulted with the folks at Tough Pigs so we can all blame them.

I agree. He is smaller and would be easier to find a place to display him. However, with Haslab, if the test works they may go on to make more of these. I don't see why they wouldn't as they are funded upfront, before production, so they are already paid for. To me this is not an either or...

If it garners the support it needs, or better yet way more than the 3000 they need, then I think we will see more. Grover, Bert, Ernie, Elmo, maybe Oscar, though I think the trash can may pose a problem... unless they make the trash can the packaging... But I think we will only see more if...

As I see it, even if you think you want this, you should get this because one of two things will happen. 1. Either the crowd funding fails 2. the crowd funding succeeds and after market prices sky rocket, making those that missed out due to fence sitting pay through the nose or simply miss...

Huh.... I thought there would be a bit more excitement around this news.
