    Custom figures and dioramas

    Okay, I chose this frame right here to try to do: http://threads.rebelscum.com/imagepopup.php?imagename=http:%2F%2Fthreads.rebelscum.com%2Fphotogallery%2Fwatermark.php?file=162586&imagewidth=853&imageheight=480 I needed the foreground and the background, so I grabbed an earlier frame where...

    New Video: Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody!

    I know I asked about this, and so did ZeppoAndFriends... Well, I was just watching a scene near the end of Great Muppet Caper, when Animal pulls the window over onto himself and all the other Muppets, and noticed Rizzo- in profile- tilt up at the neck and watch the window as it comes towards...

    Wanted: Backstage Playset

    The shipping is that high because the seller is in France. Considering the fragility of the hatrack accessory, even if it's mint in box, I doubt it would survive a trans-Atlantic crossing. Still, though, it's about half what I recently paid for a never-removed-from-box one that had only had...

    Operation Silly Songs Album Idea

    How about the old "foot bone's connected to the leg bone" song? DN

    WANTED: Count's Colorforms Castle

    Describe the Count's Castle for the Count? Well, I'd be delighted to! I hope I can find words sufficiently descriptive for the honor... I remember when I was a kid, the box seemed so huge! Now that I own one again, it's odd to think for a moment, "Hey, it shrunk!" before it dawns on me that...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Good call... especially when they sing 'Baby Driver' from the Paul Simon episode. DN

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Hmmm... right after Animal pulls open the window on top of them, right? Let's see, where did I put that interesting piece of frosted plastic that I took out of a skylight? Dearth

    Figmental's Collection and Customs

    Props for the prop, eh? Looks to me like it's the skateboard to Scooter. But I could be wrong. Dearth

    WANTED: Count's Colorforms Castle

    Yep, I uploaded a couple of pictures of my set to the Muppetwiki to complement what was already there. And then I scanned the artwork, repainted some details digitally, and printed it as a backdrop for my Sesame Street customs...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Two songs pop to mind... the theme to Muppet Babies, and that song from Fraggle Rock with the lyric "babies everywhere, in their underwear". Dearth

    Custom figures and dioramas

    "Howdy, Ham Hock, this is Dirty Bird!" Well, customizing the Muppets is addictive, as you can see. But it's actually more fun to customize in a line by a defunct company, since you know they'll never produce the very character you're toiling over. On the flip side, the price isn't as good as...

    Are these real SST Muppets?

    I recently bought a replacement toy off eBay for a long-lost childhood favorite: The Count's Colorforms Castle. I love the vinyl pieces of all the familiar SST characters...

    question about Dark Crystal documentary clip

    Was there a segment about the Dark Crystal on the tv show "Standby Lights Camera Action", hosted by Leonard Nimoy? I have this memory of a specific behind-the-scenes clip showing Frank Oz explaining the cantilevered system inside the Skeksis which would allow the weight of the puppeteer's arm...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Okay, I think I may have done something wrong with my compression rate, because it took hours to upload it, but if someone could test this out for me, let everyone know if it worked, that would be awesome. The Dark Crystal 2-disc soundtrack: http://www.sendspace.com/file/bjn522 If it all...

    Figmental's Collection and Customs

    Cool idea... but I don't think my painting skills are up to Dr. Teeth's, and a pre-camouflage Studebaker wouldn't be nearly as much fun. DN

    Wanted: Backstage Playset

    As it happens, I recently purchased a spare to upgrade my own, and have yet to list the previous one for sale. It's just the set, no Rowlf. What have you got for trade? I'd need to get about $190 value out of it to get back what I spent. Dearth EDIT: Sorry, just noticed the part about...

    Does anyone have the Muppet Babies Colorforms?

    Thanks for the PM, I just sent a reply. I've been doing some more research into the Muppet Babies Colorforms... there were two similar sets done a couple of years apart. The quick way to tell them apart is if the set includes vinyl pieces for Scooter and Skeeter. They were added for the 1989...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    I found a site where someone had posted the entire Dark Crystal soundtrack for download. Is it okay to post the link of something like that on here? Dearth

    FS: Palisades Muppets Playsets

    Well, Beakerfan's offer is very generous, but believe it or not, I do always feel a little bad buying a carded figure for a custom project, especially if there's someone out there who doesn't even own ONE, let alone an extra to cut up and resculpt and repaint. If Beakerfan has never owned...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    My wife has forbidden me to play the Muppet Show's "Rhyming Song" for a while, because it's been stuck in her head for about two days.... ever since we were listening to a CD in the car and my eight year old asked me to play the Rhyming Song a second time. Dearth
