    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Rizzo - wow wow wow - if these are the quality of these posers they will get A+ - he's perfect. Piggy looks a great start. Kermit - yes its just the clothes they are showing off, but the clothes are awful. I know its an easy way to get an extra poser out there if they just produce a...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    Yeah its very true that if they think a movie is good enough on its own they don't always give it a big advertising budget. Sometimes its the real stinkers that get all the ads - cos they know they need to counter the bad review buzz, poor word of mouth and they just decide to bombard everyone...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    They did shelve that .. well it was a pilot - everyone always do loads of pilots and lots don't get picked up. It's pretty normal - its just we get a lot of info here from the inside people so we tend to know about these things wheras with other brand the fans never usually find out. I was...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    I've not read the entire thread, but just on this - you have a point, there are a lot of media companies who buy up properties and never intend to do much with them. Largely because its the original programming library that is worth the money itself in distribution, they don't bother spending...

    The Muppet Central Freelance Writers Guild Project

    I agree with Jamie/Prawnie most strongly that its about time, with Phils permission of course, the site became more interactive and open to contributions like it used to be. It feels so dead other than the forum. I used to write some of the news opinion pieces for MC way back, would be happy...

    Puppetry On The Fourth Plinth

    Farewell Farah and Michael

    Don't forget guys, Michael was a huge Muppet fan. He even owned that Swarvski Kermit Pill Box which is quite rare and was pictured in his TV documentary.

    Muppet material going through the BBFC this week

    It does sound like Letters to Santa. However Disney ARE opening up a larger version of Disney XD to the UK and also starting up a Disney XD TV channel which will take the place of Jetix. So hopefully we might see some Muppets!

    Farewell Farah and Michael

    RIP Michael ... i came so close twice now to seeing him live - so sad. I'm sure things will become clearer over the next few weeks what was happening with him but it sounds like another case of someone being messed up by fame. If people are thinking about posting about the controversy around...

    Ed McMahon is now gone

    Very sad to hear Ed's gone - he was co-host recently in ALF's Hit Talk Show and did a great job.

    "A Muppet Christmas: Letters to Santa" comes to DVD in September

    Fantastic news! They did O(uter) sleeves on the ALF seasons and they were fantastic - it looks like they will be kinda like 3d raised images . This should be good.

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    I just really hope they will reconsider the Fozzie/Piggy thing when they see the poll and the enthusiasm past and present for Fozzie. It makes no sense for everyone to have been waiting for Fozzie, emailing all the distributors for Fozzie, voting how much they'd pay for Fozzie even .... then a...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Well hopefully with Rizzo and Pepe being small, they would be at a comparable rates to what MR was selling them at, but for the bigger ones i'm expecting to be paying $500-$600 ish. I also hope things like Fozzies hat or Rizzos cap (if he has one) would be removable. The clothes being stitched...

    Your Thoughts: Forum Updates

    great idea about replicas .. the action figures forum gets few posts now. Maybe they'd be better in general merchandise.

    Skippyshorts: Most hilarious show on youtube.

    Really? It doesn't come across as improv. Puppet Up obviously is totally unprepared, even the situations.

    Inflating/Deflating Puppet (any ideas?)

    :eek: For the one that shrinks i'm pretty sure you can get valves for balloons that you can open and close each time you want it to escape a bit more. As for something deflating via footpump or sitting on a cactus i have no idea, possibly try tire deflaters - possibly theres some auto...

    Skippyshorts: Most hilarious show on youtube.

    I think the editing is very very good for a Youtube clip .. i didn't find it that funny, but that could just be me. It's good to see people having a go anyway.

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    ... i think it does! :coy: I'm quite happy about that actually, its logical there is a Kermit available to buy for newcomers (and the MR one is not) and the reporter look is brill. Not selling the clothes seperately will probably help them a bit sales wise, i guess its just down to how many...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Ah .. i guess in other words someone else has the fashion doll license (like those Piggys advertised here) and they could sue Disney if eFX product infringed their license. It's unfortunate, but understandable now the Muppets are higher profile. The process to create these eFX were talking...
