    This IS the feedback forum, D'Snowth's posts ARE a matter of feedback, so I fail to see why your passive-aggressive tactics are essential. If someone's public identity is being compromised by a mod, that somebody has every right to publicly express disdain.

    Copyright details on Schleich figures

    Hey all, I realise it's a long shot that anyone will be able to answer this, but... As my previous posts have indicated, I've spent the last 6 months collecting variations on the Schleich Muppet Show and Muppet Babies PVC figures. Now that I have over 130 of the little buggers, I've started...

    Original retail Whatnots from 70's

    All puppets in that series came with plastic rods with rings that held the arms (allowing the arms to be puppeteered). The large hands no doubt allowed the rods to stay in place.

    1979 World Magazine

    I'm not sure where you live, or what they're called in your neck of the woods. However, here in Australia, the first place to search for such things would be the State Libraries. These are the large libraries in capital cities which, by law, have to have any published material donated to them...

    Starting new threads with Firefox

    Hey, Anyone know why, when I try to create a thread with Firefox, there is no field for typing in the thread contents? All I get is the field to write the thread's title and the options for posting a poll. I had to resort to the web dinosaur that is Internet Explorer to make this post.

    Original retail Whatnots from 70's

    Are you thinking of a Muppet Show or Sesame Street item? If it's the latter, you may mean the Sesame Street Anything Muppet: http://worldsesa.me/index.php?showimage=11

    Fan Poll: Favorite Sesame Street Christmas Production

    Such are the dangers of having a figure whose folklore has emerged over time. For those who don't know, Clement Clarke Moore's A Visit from St Nicholas, aka The Night Before Christmas is believed to be the original source of the concept of Santa entering a house via the chimney. Of course, the...

    Fan Poll: Favorite Henson Family Christmas Production

    I'm assuming that 'Henson Family' refers to Henson characters who would fit into a somewhat extended definition of 'Muppet', yes? My initial reaction was, "What?! No Muppet Family Christmas?" Refrigerator Day wins for me, simply because it was able to go through the motions of 'holiday special'...

    Fan Poll: Favorite Sesame Street Christmas Production

    CEoSS gets my vote for so many reasons: The retro aspect, the heart, the ensemble cast (it wasn't called Big Bird's Special Christmas, after all), the mixture of humour and passion coming from stories rather than silly 'stunt' premises, and the simple fact that it reflects the Street's golden...

    Original Gordon from the Sesame Street test pilot has been identified

    The way that the article is worded, saying that the details are not being shared out of respect for his family's (not his) privacy, would imply that he is dead or in a bad way.

    Original Gordon from the Sesame Street test pilot has been identified

    In Street Gang, Jon Stone is quoted as saying that Saunders was cast at the last minute, and that nobody was happy with the casting, so most probably. He's not the only thing about the test pilot that's rough around the edges (Susan was almost at Vanna White-level in being 'set dressing'), and...

    Campaigning for the Muppets to host the Oscars

    I'm sorry, but Billy Crystal and the Oscars are so 'yesterday'. He added his own spin and made the show his own back in the 90s, but...

    Campaigning for the Muppets to host the Oscars

    A fun idea. It'll be a shame when we have to face the reality that the show is in February and there may not be enough time to develop much of a 'concept'.

    Campaigning for the Muppets to host the Oscars

    If you don't think hot topics on Facebook and Twitter are headlines, you haven't paid attention to the way the information world is heading :) Anyway, in the wake of Eddie Murphy dropping out of hosting the Oscars, a lot of comments have been made about the Muppets hosting the show. To join in...
