    Edgiest puppet show: Wonder Showzen

    I saw the test pilot, i like the idea of doing a Sesame Parody for adults, its a very creative and edgy idea - although i'm a little on the fence over whether it should be done since it involved using kids quite heavily and i'm not really pro kids being used in media to make adults laugh. I...

    Will HA and it's programs be represented?

    There oughta to be a bit more fan participation with the main site in general, things have slowed down over the years and thats a shame. I agree about Tinseltown, MC has always been about supporting Henson's work and the Muppets. This is a great new Henson production and we need as many people...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    Thanks, i want to make sure i have a Fozzie when the times comes, and an Animal hopefully. I don't have room for all of them. I wish they would get the ALF license and do a one off aniversary ALF. I need an ALF like this, lol. Not a great chance, haha.

    muppet from Dinosaurs on ebay

    It is a bit high for what they're asking, good condition though - the body needs a clean up. They have a second puppet too, not in as good condition, and a third "food" puppet. All great pieces of Henson memorabilia after all these years. I love the look of this character, so the swamp band...

    Miss Piggy on UK TV

    Miss Piggy appeared on 25 years of the Bafta Awards (pre-recorded i think) tonight in the UK. She did a sketch with Sharon Osbourne.

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    Actually yes thinking about it, the wait has kinda been long between Kermit and Animal. It must take a heck of an effort getting these made right in China though. :eek: I agee about Scooter. He'd be perfect sitting in a directors chair or at the entrance to anyones home cinema. Rizzo as...

    The wrong thing is not taking Bobby along to enjoy the view. He definitely seems up for a party! It's interesting that Bobby's assistant is Samson's ex-wife or something, lol. I REALLY like this show, it needs to be on a major network. Best thing Henson have done since VMX, maybe even...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    I like the idea of doing one a year, which also gives people the opportunity to save for them and they should sell more. I can see Gonzo being delayed further than their projected date anyway. I guess they are trying to get as many done as they can before the license ends or needs extending...

    If just looking at another girl was cheating then i think Jesus is going to have a lot of people to save, including many christians. My point is, Jesus view was of a very different world a long time ago, times have changed, and you probably need to put his actual message into context a bit...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    The whole point of forums are to express views, it doesn't have to be a cheerleading club. Travis got his job at Palisades from being known from here, Terry became known to the Palisades guys because he posted here and members put them in touch with him. Never underestimate the power of the...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    Yeah it doesn't surprise me that it might be to do with the reference back from the Disney people. I remember Ken saying it was all down to how knowledgable the person reviewing is and sometimes what was down on paper from years back had gone through changes on the show and didn't match the...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    I agree it was never gonna be a mirror copy of a Muppet, but from the claims of them being the most realistic, most authentic, using close materials etc etc as well as the price these come in at, you would be expecting something pretty spot on - just like proto Kermit and just like the proto...

    At the end of the day this is like any other TV/Movie or whatever, if you want to watch it, watch it. If you're against it then simply don't watch it. Like Quilter said how the forum is full of different peoples views, programming is made to suit different peoples tastes. An ultra religious...

    What price did she say? I don't get why they can't get a color match for the Gonzo suit - do they dye it themselves or just get a bulk load in from a list of colors?

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    Agreed, it may have been a mistake to put a Gonzo into production once it was known that they wouldn't be able to mass produce anything like Terry's prototype ... but obviously they paid for their license and want the big guns. Let's hope they can make some improvements still though and...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    I saw a few photos of Gonzo over a year ago, he actually looked better then. I had heard from someone "in the loop" over these that they had to make some kind of compromise with Disney over the materials but i guess that doesn't count for the dimension issues people have raised. I hope they...
