I'm sorry Warrick - i realise the Muppet action figure line is fast becoming a nightmare for supporters of show accuracy. I'm sure the flowers will be great, there there buddy! Anyone for a silver and gold repaint of the Swinetrek with flashy lights? ;-)

Heck i hated the wall in the first place and said the same thing. Might as well make sure he sells if they are gonna do it though and that WILL sell to the backstage set buyers. I don't like the idea of flowers much, i would have gone for the clock or radio ....... although we are getting a...

My girfriend picked up a set for me this morning at Bluewater. She said they had a few Piggy's and a Kermit left. I might take em back though, they are very expensive for what they are. Animal is cool though. I'd be up for swaps or something as well, i'm still in need of a few of the action...

Ken has now made up his mind to make #1, Pops will also come with flowers, sign-in book and Gaffer.

You certainly DO need a "little more knowledge" Mark because this deal lets the kids do exactly that. This way they get to make puppet shows that they otherwise couldn't have afforded to make, and more of them. THEY will be making it, and the quality will be largely upto them - not Disney...

It is an ice tray, but it's the kind from an ice making machine apparently. It's supposed to fit in the fridge. This has to be like the most asked question in Muppet action figure history.

Well the subliminal bolding does give them a little push in the right direction. I was only joking with him anyway though - lol - i can't even decide between the two now as it is.

Nothing like impartial voting eh ya little vote swindler !!! ;)

I don't think Eisner is that bad - i think people are mistaking him for the whole of the Disney board. Various people i know and respect have got on fine with him and so did Jim Henson. Ever thought Disney and the press have been making him the scapegoat? He's just a very savvy and hugely...

LOL - this shows how bad my longterm memory is doesn't it? Well at least i got the yay right for Kermit. Thought it was Piggy you had seen Warrick - LOL ! I think in U.S dollars these would be $10 each. The dollar is very weak against the pound right now, a year ago that would have only...

It was Steve's Kermit but it was pre-recorded and somebody (Steve again most probably) just lip-sync'd

I can't remember, i think it was just a Kermit face against a yellow background. Last time i went about a week ago to a big Clintons they did have one each of all three cards. Various people have said to me many of the local ones don't have every character left, hopefully they'll re-stock...

No you didn't. The Henson's are gonna be making the Muppet shows and movies for at least another three years. You say they might suffer creatively but then why hire the Henson Company as consultants for further years if Disney don't care about the qualtiy? Of course they do - if the Muppets...

Eric Jacobson is Piggy's current performer now but he "stewards" the character for Frank Oz. Kermit is performed by Steve Whitmire and Animal doesn't have an assigned performer but i think its usually Eric Jacobson now. I don't think the cards are available in the US. It is actually getting...

Been meaning to post this for a week or two. Clinton Cards in the UK are now selling officially licensed Muppet Birthday cards. There are three - Kermit, Piggy and Animal. Each one has a glossy cartoon style picture on the front. When you open the card it says (if i can remember right):-...

It just means he has to answer to the chairman of the board rather than being it now. I don't think it makes a massive difference.

Nothing has been really said about Palisades specifically but it sounds like Disney will be handling the Muppet licensing themselves. They could stop the licenses like Palisades/Sababa or let them run out and just make merch based on new things like Muppet movies and TV shows which nobody has...

Reptitive Strain Injury (ie:- Wrist ache) People get it from typing too much and doing erm other things. I'll represent ya and we can split the winnings! The People Vs Muppet Central First witness :- Camilla The Chicken

Of course you realise this means war ............. (i'm kidding, or am i ?) .... and Kevin, if you ever get RSI i think we can safely say you have a legal case against Phil ! ;-)

So yeah Eisners in - but over 40% of people witheld their vote (against him) so it does still make it very tricky for him to hold on. The thing is there is nobody really standing against him to take his place right now.
