    That's a licensed Henson item from the past, they've just written Disney cos of the Ebay keywords.

    Has Any One Seen This!!?? &&*#!

    I think "Muppets Holding" replied that this is just for Bear. BITBBH was part Disney anyway so it makes sense in that case.

    Boglins

    I didn't realise they are still making them. Yeah i have one up in the attic (no box though). I remember they had googly eyes you could move with your fingers and the plastic/rubber was very durable. You can't get much of an expression out of them though really. I thought they looked great.

    The Muppets.com Countdown has begun

    I am not expecting much - some profiles of the characters and shows, maybe a flash game, press releases for Muppet Wizard Of Oz. I doubt we are about to see anything that spectacular just yet. Most of the Diz official sites are geared at kids anyway.

    Series Nine, When

    There is no official delay - action figures aren't like DVD's with a certain release date. EB estimate one from when they know things are shipping from China, it has nothing to do with Palisades at all - and usually EB are very wrong in their estimations. For one, it's impossible to estimate how...

    DVD and More: HIT's plan for Fraggles in 2005

    I think talk of a new show is probably very premature, they would probably only consider it if their DVD/Web promotion went down massively well - but it would obviously be cool and it's interesting how the person said it would be "Fraggle" as parents recognized it. I would have thought HIT...

    Palisades theatre question

    It'll be sold in the UK by www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk, should be very soon as we are usually first with the regular series figures and playsets. I guess the boat comes past England to get to the states or something? I dunno.

    Series Nine, When

    Don't hold your breath, it sounds wrong. Ken said they were somewhere on the sea still. They'd have to clear customs after that too. From past experience i don't think we'll see them till mid November and a few weeks later for EB.

    The New Henson.com

    Hey Mark, Some things you say are right, i'm sure the Henson kids aren't exactly broke and it is a shame Kermit had to go from the Henson site. However Henson.com is the corporate site - not the historical one. For that you need the Henson Legacy which is a completey seperate organisation...

    Five Children and It trailer

    Yeah the trailers are showing on TV in the UK right now. I like the Eddie Izzard voice but i'm not a big fan of the creature design. The BBC puppet used in the kids TV series version years ago was much better.

    The New Henson.com

    Jim wanted HENSON at Disney, with him in creative control - it isn't quite the same. Disney had been wanting the Muppets for some time but they weren't really prepared to pay much for them. Now they've got them all they've done so far is pay Henson to make the shows and the puppets, and...

    The New Henson.com

    I don't quite think they are in the position you assume, otherwise they could have got Farscape relaunched much easier. The key to being rich is being wise with money - they were never going to bankroll Henson when they bought it back from EMTV. Infact the cash the company did have all went to...

    Where is the Floyd bust?

    Yeah that too - he wasn't adverse to doing them at some point though. Sesame busts would be good although the Muppet ones didn't sell very well and they seem to have a bigger adult collector following than Sesame so it might not be a wise investment. I think if any more busts are made they...

    Where is the Floyd bust?

    I remember Ken said he was interested in doing mini busts, just not at the same time as the figures. I doubt that would come off now though what with the Disney thing.

    TODAY: Brian Henson on Air America Radio

    It's on right now. He said Muppet Wizard Of Oz has an unofficial May airdate. That's the only new thing they said about it really. Also a question about how the new Farscape came about, and wierdly the interviewer decided to ask how Steve Whitmire inherited the role of Kermit. Other than...

    Anyone having trouble with Palisades site?

    I agree with some of the things, but it's whatever works for them i guess. I definitely think moderators should always be clearly identifiable though, in any forum.

    Anyone having trouble with Palisades site?

    I think there are way too many mods there - it makes it unmanageable, and most of the mods have taken mod out of their title or made a joke out of it so new members don't really know. It's difficult for us to know who is really in charge of each section because one sections mods start...
