Yep! Now if they'd just rush those things right over to my house... Michael MWC getting less patient all the time...

Woo hoo! Doing the little happy dance - my Sideshow muppet busts shipped today! Can't wait to get them in my hot little hands... Michael MWC

As soon as I can! I'll have more reviews as soon as those darn toys hit the shelves! Michael MWC waiting only somewhat patiently for wave 2...

Yep...and... I reviewed the invisible figures awhile back: VC Beaker - http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_072402.htm Fozzie - http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_080702b.htm I also have a complete archive up of the figures if you're looking for more pictures...

Haven't seen it mentioned yet, but Target's are starting to put out the Kermit and Miss Piggy bobbleheads. They had them on an endcap at the registers today when I stopped by. They are with the Peanuts, Toy Story and others. Very cool! Michael MWC

Yep Some of them are like that. Back when I reviewed them, I mentioned that mine had it, and you can actuallly just barely see it in the last picture of Kermit, above the 'I' in his name. http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_061302.htm Michael MWC

Wow! Small world that it is, the winner is a friend of mine - we even work right in the same building. He mentioned it to me today, and I checked out the rest of the desktops. There's some terrific work there - congrats to all! Michael MWC

Rings at the top... I like the suggestion of the boots on Spaceman Spiff - the rings at the top seem to fit into the overall design of the rest of the outfit. And of course they have to have some sort of cool tread... Michael MWC

They usually are EB tries to get close on those dates, but they always post their pre-orders so far in advance that it's awfully tough for them to not miss it. They are usually overly optimistic too, which means they have to move the date back 9 times out of 10. Ah well, all good things...

Ken's right! I have to agree fully with Ken on the idea of having multiple 'brands', splitting it out by film. It causes problems with retailers, and let's them think too much - you don't want them thinking too much. This is way McToys is putting Wizard of Oz figures in the 'Monsters'...

TOMY Didn't I hear Diamond was bringing some of the Magical Kingdom stuff over? I could have swore I heard that just recently... I have the Monsters Inc related ones, and they are pretty darn cute. Yep, did a quick search around, and Diamond should have them in comic shops in December...

My two cents... I'm going to weigh in with a slightly different opinion, but only slightly. Where it varies is whether anything produced these days will be worth anything 20-30 years from now. While it's true that what kids play with most will end up worth the most in the future, exactly...

Heheheh I have a hunch we're seeing them on a good day :D Michael MWC

And you have to watch out... You gotta keep an eye on those packaging designers too - they tend to be the sneaky types :D Michael MWC

I'm so used to it! As a kid I was always 'Mike'. Just never fit me though, and once people actually started asking me what I preferred, I told them Michael. Of course, to my family, I'll always be Mike. Good to hear things are selling well through most stores. Our TRU stores seem to have...

Hope... I certainly hope so, particularly Wal-mart, although I imagine they are a mighty tough sell for any smaller company. How well is series 1 selling in your area? It's not selling as well as I'd hoped around here, although I'm smart enough to understand that's not surprising. It...

Stores... Bean's Toys has a good price on-line: http://www.beanstoys.com/Docs/peanuts.htm TRU will be carrying them, but in the seasonal section I believe. Michael MWC

? Grail, you've mentioned writing reviews for Zentertainment before, but I can't find them. Where are they located on the site? Michael MWC

Yep... ...Mike and Sulley were given away with a drawing at each store. Getting them home, into the house, and somewhere in the room was a major issue. I even did a little feature on the whole process: http://www.mwctoys.com/FEATURE_031302.htm I also had to skip LOTR. As much as I...

Oh, I've been collecting awhile... I've been collecting figures for about 14 years now. I have one or two, and I've found myself involved with more than one line, you might say. To give you some idea, you can check out my toy room here: http://www.mwctoys.com/ToyRoom_Intro.htm That's...
