    Fraggle Rock Event!

    I believe. Things seem to have been cautious on the Weinstein front so far and I don't think that's a bad thing. Whatever will make for a smooth Fraggle Movie production works for this fan. I'd like to see all this right now, but take as long as you guys need to make it great! :busy: Is...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Everyone has a voice no matter their income We know why these new items will be more expensive than we're used to, but that doesn't mean you need to keep telling people here who invested in the MR line yet can't afford the latest extension on the poser line to "take things in stride". That's...

    'The Muppet Movie' to be preserved by Library of Congress

    What arm parts in particular? This is my favorite film so it would make for a fun additional viewing to look for them. :)

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    *I did make sure to include in my post that my intention is not to offend. You just seem much more interested in product at any cost. I've taken all of your posts in and understand the issues of factory production. There's no ambiguity, just confusion about the passion and repetition of...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    The fans here represent a good portion of the market for these so I don't think we should discard any pricing. I get what you're saying, but I'm certain EFX is trying to keep the SRP as low as possible. And the $700 Doozers aren't representative of the collectors' market. Very, very few Fraggle...

    The Broken Puppeteer's Arm

    Hiya Kev, I broke my right wrist many years back and actually drew those old Fozzie Bear and Jim Henson pencil drawings using a lot of my left hand. It's slow-going, but a lot of that craft is with the eye and intuition. I'm not sure how that connects to puppetry. Hope you heal soon! :o

    Animal collar replica from the Muppet Movie

    He was waiting on supplies and was planning on getting them out but they technically weren't "complete" or "ready" to be mailed Halloween. Read back. Lithium's process has been more expedient and communicative than some companies tactics as of late. ;) It's interesting what parties get the...

    Was this really news? Fox News attacks Mr. Rogers

    Fox News has a far superior production staff in terms of style. I wish they had the appropriate substance along with the shiny packaging. Fox has the best lighting, graphics, constant live updates, they're always closed captioned 24/7 and always display the correct time. Everything is easy to...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon"

    I agree with Super Scooter here over Frogster. Fozzie (under Frank) was primarily naive, but had some moments of mature clarity. I think, in a way, that Eric has gone back a little in the time machine to the classic core of what makes Fozzie - Fozzie. I love it and I think he really nails...

    Animal collar replica from the Muppet Movie

    It's probably just the holiday season hindering things this time. It's an ambitious project. I expected it to take a while. It probably shouldn't have taken this long, but I'm committed. Once EFX Rizzo's preorder is announced in a month or so I'll start to worry about this collar for Animal...

    My Nutcracker Design Online!

    :o I designed these exclusives for the Joffrey Ballet in Chicago and just discovered they are available in their online shop too. Wish I'd known earlier. :zany: The double-faced Giant Monskey - Nutcracker/Mouse King - was featured in my facebook holiday card. There's also the regular sized...

    Merry/Happy from Kevin and the Mule

    I am so sorry Kev! Get well soon! Just got your card in the mail when I got back to San Francisco on Christmas day. Thanks so much for that! Had to Facebook my rather generic card in this year. (psssst...it's recycled art from a client project last fall) ;) I must admit to missing Santa...

    Kermit Variety Gold Heart Charity

    This link has popped up over at Muppets.com. Has anyone heard of it? Apparently Kermit and Whoopi Goldberg are running this ad for childrens' charities. I must have missed this. :sympathy:

    Official Doozer Replicas available now?

    I still don't see why they haven't tried urban vinyl doozers. :busy: They could make those affordable and still have some high-end excluslusive paint schemes. The Henson licenses are always handled the worst. From Mindsyle to this. I just don't get it. I hope when the film comes out we'll have...

    Official Doozer Replicas available now?

    I like the look of these. I really do, but it seems the people with money to buy them would be general collectors rather than Fraggle fans. It's either the unattractive cheaper plushes or the highpriced nice-looking Doozer posers? One would think they'd look to design something in the middle...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon"

    It was really fantastic and near perfect. I give it a 98/100. Robin's voice sounded like a good effort that will grow on us like Steve's Kermit did. Rowlf's voice was spot-on, but the person puppeteering him did a rather unremarkable job. His head was flapping around in an amateurish, flappy...

    Duncan Kenworthy to produce "My Fair Lady" remake

    This is the same film that's been in pre-production for a while. Keira Knightley will star in a un updated version of the classic musical. I don't quite know what to think of that.

    Why Did Boom! Change Their Paper?

    You so didn't mention Liefeld. LOL! He must be one of the most disliked comic book hacks of this era. The whole Shatter Star controversy is odd. I wonder if Disney will keep it going now that they purchased Marvel. By the way, has anyone confirmed when this deal officially goes through? Being a...

    RIP Brittany Murphy

    She will still be "Rollin' with the Homies" in 2010 I checked IMDB and she has a lot of films in post-production to come out next year including "Something Wicked","The Expendables" with Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham, and Bruce Wilis, and "Shrinking Charlotte" with Kathleen Turner.
