    Miss Piggy Hog Wild Tonner Doll - lock me up!

    No, I think she's in biker leather. A look we've seen for her before. Alex

    Wanted: Knickerbocker Bert and Ernie with real clothes

    Thanks for going to all that trouble, but those are all the cloth "rag doll" style... I'm looking for the poseable PVC "action figures" with removable clothes, more in the style of the Palisades Muppet Show figures. I wish I could embed pics on this forum (hopefully that will be one of the...

    Knickerbocker Ernie and Bert "action figures"

    First of all, I love that avatar. I've only recently discovered the NC, and I've been gorging myself on his vids. Second, I found someone selling a naked Bert and won the auction for a very small amount. I just wanted to see what scale these are compared to the Palisades Muppets, and he looks...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Anyone have the Disneyland records album "Rubber Duckie (and other songs from Sesame Street)" in an mp3 format? Specifically, I want Thurl Ravenscroft's rendition of Bein' Green. Alex

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Just a flat backdrop? I've thought of doing that before... take some on-set reference photos and just clone-brush them into a big empty stack of arches. Then, of course, I realized that it doesn't exactly work for the Palisades figures, for one simple reason. They have legs! The split-screen...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Haha! I recognize that backdrop. That one was uploaded before I figured out who to use the 'clone brush' tool, so I was never happy with a part of the blue backdrop where I painted out Bunsen Honeydew's head. Glad to see other folks are still enjoying those flat printouts for their own figure...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Another good suggestion. Here's a quick framegrab from a copy of the Nureyev episode which someone posted to YouTube. http://threads.rebelscum.com/imagepopup.php?imagename=http:%2F%2Fthreads.rebelscum.com%2Fphotogallery%2Fwatermark.php?file=199734&imagewidth=1000&imageheight=741 Looks pretty...

    Any Tips for Arm Fatigue?

    I've merely dabbled as a puppeteer, but I do a lot of acting and directing and improv. The first play I was ever in was Little Shop, and I've voiced Audrey II three times since 1989. I just finished a stage production of Disney's Aladdin Jr., where I played the Genie. For the first time I pop...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    You've seen this Muppet Babies backdrop before, with my McDonald's premiums and some PVC's. But it also works with my newly acquired Tyco Muppet Babies figurines...

    Quest for a Kermit Wedding Ceremony

    The first thing that popped into my mind was, I'm not sure whether a ceremony performed by a fictional character would be legally binding. But my friend Paul had a creative solution for his wedding. His family wanted one person to do the ceremony, his wife wanted someone else. So they...

    Jim Henson seen in Muppet Movie

    Pretty good list here... http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Jim_Henson_Cameos Doesn't list one for the Muppet Movie itself, but they've got the hansom cab driver from Muppets Take Manhattan, which was the first one I thought of. And the one in the Muppet Babies music video, I always liked that...

    Muppet Vinylmation Series 2

    I think I would have liked that better than the painted-on nose seen on today's blog... http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2011/04/muppet-news-flash-vinylmation-series-two-at-disney-parks/ But the little Camilla is pretty cute. There was a Waldo sculpted into the back side of the...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    I skimmed through Alice Cooper first, but it's actually in the Vincent Price episode. Good catch. You're starting to think like a screencap-printer! There are two shots where the ghosts fade out, and you can piece together an approximation of the entire set...

    Knickerbocker Ernie and Bert "action figures"

    Hi all, I saw an auction for a loose Bert figure who was for some reason sans apparel. I did a little research and came up with these Knickerbocker 'action figures' with removable clothes from 1980...
