I think you have to think of this Kermit as a manequin to show off the clothes. I think the big problem is that they have him sitting. The coat would look much better if he was standing, but I'm pretty sure there isn't room in the display case for him to stand. And I think he's going to have...
Hi Guys!
Sorry to be so late with these, but I just got back to my room and had to shrink the pictures so you could view them.
Enjoy!
Reporter Kermit
This is an MR Kermit with the clothes put on him. His head is kinda smashed. If I have time tomorrow, I might ask them if I can...
I'm sorry, I know some of these cryptic messages might seem more frustrating than helpful, but just as we had to wait to announce which company it was and what characters they were going to produce, we must also wait for the right time to get other answers as well. There is still more than a...
As far as why they picked up the line, somewhere in some thread, I've forgotten which one it was (maybe the first original thread about the posers), I mentioned that if MR dropped the line there was another company that could pick up the slack. That was eFX all along. Certain conditions needed...
Puppet Heap is not helming the venture, but rather helping, as you said. Also, they've just made a completely new Piggy head from scratch. I don't think we've seen it in anything yet.
:p
Well, there is some talk that if MR Kermit was really 10% smaller than the real thing (and that still has not been confirmed), that they might, and I repeat MIGHT, make him the right size this time.
That alone would be a good excuse for all of us to buy the new version, not to mention...
To quote "Star Wars": There is another.
There is someone else who was very instrumental in getting MR to take on the Muppet line in the first place and he is very much involved in this new line as well. In fact, he made the eyes for Terry's Fozzie.
Fear not, my friends, the Muppets are...
Although none of this is carved in stone yet, the first one is supposed to be Rizzo. The prototype is being built right now. The plan is to do Reporter, or Great Muppet Caper Kermit second. Then Piggy POSSIBLY third.
Like I said, none of this is definite beyond Rizzo actually being built...
Fozzie will not be first, second or even third. He's just too darn expensive to produce. Most people on here wouldn't be able to afford him, myself included. He's not ruled out. Someday they may still get to him, just not any time in the near future.
:p
It's still going to be China. As much as it pains me to say it, that's the only place they can still be made inexpensively enough so that we (collectors) can still afford to buy them. As of a week ago, the price still hadn't been set.
Did I use the word "still" enough?
:p
I'm outta here. Sorry one a**h*le has to ruin it for everyone. And pardon my language, but he just fries my bacon... and I get along with EVERYONE. Well, I guess from now on, I'll have to say almost everyone.
:p
P.S. I wish there was an "ignore" feature on the board like there is in...
Hi Nick,
Comic Con International is in San Diego, California in July. Here is where you can find out about it:
Comic Con
Unfortunately, even if you could get there, it's almost sold out, so you're probably out of luck for this year.
:p
Yes, I will be at Comic-Con and hopefully can get my laptop working this year so I can post pictures.
I happen to know a lot about what's happening, but I think it's only fair to let muppetperson announce it when he's given the official word. He's done so much work to try and make this...
