    Sweetums...Club only?

    Right now there is no answer, just as Luke said...but there is an interesting idea in the works...a possible shared exclusive between about 4-5 different retail outlets. That may get it to the number it would need to get a more generalized release. If and when we get it locked in, I am sure...

    Bagged Swedish Chef?

    I would hardly count that as a product for a price guide...they were the extras left over that were intitally created to deal with returns...its in a plain baggie...no text on it at all...the baggie was just so the paint wouldn't get messed up in the warehouse.

    Hey Uncleduke?

    Steppin' Out Bunsen and Beaker will be sold out in a couple weeks. When that happens, Ghost of Sam Arrow will become the sign-up figure.

    The Best Toy Line Ever

    I don't understand...how come? I basically said that the Muppet line has struggled from Day One. What do you mean...I don't follow.

    The Best Toy Line Ever

    Not sure what that means...the Muppets have always sold a marginal volume when you compare it to the volumes necessary to properly amortize the fixed costs of making a plastic item across the number of units sold. It doesn't have the mass placement or appeal of Marvel, HeMan, Star Wars, Power...

    The Best Toy Line Ever

    Actually, they get more off of the SRP than that in some cases, and sometimes less, depending on where they take possession of the goods and what they order. I think that's typical of ALL retail/manufacturer relationships. That's why you see more Con stuff...because sometimes you need that...

    Target dropped Black Tux Gonzo as an exclusive

    KK repaint was released in order to actually fill order slots, or shipping slots, in the Target ship schedule (they take little amounts at a time of their whole order in small waves) and that was to fill some gaps. Them getting more KK repaints was their idea...we decided to repaint it becuase...

    For those who missed it

    Sall will go all the way to the last minute with tweaks the way Lew did. Bernice has an all new head sculpt on the chicken.

    How about a "Day in the Life" of Ken scenario?

    It's not a bad idea...I am just far too busy to actually do it.

    Series 8 Painted Pics in Previews

    These are early, early proto pics. Rest assured that everything has already started to go through multiple rounds of tweakage. These won't be on shelf for six months. Plenty of time to make changes. Some notes (and these are only some, there are lots more but don't feel like writing a huge list...

    Palisades Board Refugee Camp

    Why be in such a hurry to post it? There are no points for who posts first and then you give your ideas away. You have a long time between now and the deadline to post the entry. If for some reason we can't get our board up by Monday or Tuesday, then we'll start talking about deadline...

    Offended? Did I come across that way? I wasn't at all.

    Swinetrek accessories

    To each their own I suppose. Some would enjoy the fun of mixing and matching the parts and filling some of the space of the set...others would prefer pack-ins. Wanna know a secret? MAMMA was originally going to be included in the PIS set...but when the items for Julius fell through and the...

    Miss Piggy as Princess Leia

    As far as I know, there is no real legal precedent for things like this. I mean, yeah companies will often contact someone and ask them to remove an item or threaten a legal action of some kind, but with eBay being as new as it is I don't yet know of any major cases that have gone through...

    Help Please: Problem with Statler & Waldorf

    The first thing you should try to do is exchange them at the point of purchase. We do have a system in place for that as most manufacturers do...retailers get returns and then contact the people they bought the goods from to work out details later. Standard returns/exchanges system for most...

    BOP Fozzie

    No need to be impressed really. I am just a toy collector who sits on this side of the board, and that is really the only difference between me and anyone else on here. Besides, I feel pretty sure that if any of you were to find yourself in my position you would do the same. I know it's...

    BOP Fozzie

    The belt is actually a piece of soft PVC, like rubber, that has some give. The pins on the accessories are hard. There should be some working to get the stuff pushed in, but the tension helps keep them in and the soft plastics help keep the paint from scraping off. They'll fit. Work it a bit.

    BOP Fozzie

    They absolutely should. Can you be more specific about what is not fitting and how?
