Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
Well, at least no news isn't bad news! I am worried though.
My hopes are that MR has done pretty well with Gonzo, especially since our overseas friends haven't even received theirs yet. It seems as though most people on the boards that are in the market for the posers have gotten/ordered one...
According to the article, Segel pitched Disney a concept so it must be pretty strong for the Disney brass to greenlight the writing of the script. I don't care if who's writing the script as long as it's good. I don't think Disney was in any hurry to do a major Muppet project, so the idea that...
Dude! Where are you? I hope this doesn't mean bad things for the Muppet Line. I've got money just sitting here waiting to give MR for Fozzie!
At the least, can you just pop on here and say "hey!" and that you'll give us answers later? We're worried about you man!
Sorry to have misinformed you Telly! I have 18-24 clothes on my Gonzo and they're perfect. I've also tried 18 month and 12 month clothing and those are good too. It may depend on what look you are going for and what style of clothing it is. I like the larger sizes for more casual clothes.
My thoughts exactly. If Gonzo ever goes on a massive sale, I may consider getting another one and doing this too. But, I really like his nose the way it is (and I thought I would hate it).
You should be fine anywhere from 12-24 months. I have 18 month shirt and pants on Gonzo now and they're perfect. The first shirt I put on him was 24 mo. and it was fine too.
I highly doubt we'll ever see factory samples. Proto 2 and 3 are being disected in China now. Once costs are ironed out at MR, I imagine they'll probably put him up for pre-order using this one as their sample. Just like Gonzo, we won't know for sure until we actually get him.
Knowing how beat...
It's the lower jaw. His bottom lip is way outta wack.
Dude, I gotta say, those figurines are not so hot. I was hoping they'd look close to the quality and feel of the outstanding WDCC figurines. The sculpts on these really don't have much detail or crispness and are much too cartoony IMO.
Ah, in hindsight, you could probably get the same effect by just wetting your fingers and pushing the hair down. The fur that was trimmed was pretty minimal.
Hey Trav!
I must humbly beg forgiveness and apologize – Gonzo is amazing! The "stocking" nose isn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be and now I can't imagine any other material (besides the foam of course) that would have been a better replacement.
I posted this pic in another thread...
Looks awesome! The perfect Gonzo.
I sympathize because everything Earl and Luke are saying is EXACTLY what I was saying before he arrived. I couldn't have been more wrong about Gonzo. I would put his likeness (even with the googly eyes) somewhere between Kermit and Animal.
I agree with your line of thinking whole-heartedly and shared your views exactly until I got Gonzo for myself (I was even very prepared to send him back or sell him on ebay). But honestly, he's much, much better in person than you would imagine from the pictures. I actually could've left his...
