    Muppets you'd like to see back...

    Like the infamous "adult humor" Sesame Street wrap party/crew messing around footage, 2002 Fox Muppets pitch show, America's Next Muppet pilot and the Muppet mockumentary series... we may never see the light of day footage wise:(

    A Documentary All Muppet Fans Should See

    I've actually been giving serious consideration and time toward opening up a small wacky themed pizza eatery with animatronics for awhile, based on my own offbeat concepts and designs. I'd have flat screens displaying puppet sketches/animation I'd do, and have full bodied characters on street...

    A Documentary All Muppet Fans Should See

    This is true, as far as older kid age demographics. The local Chuck E Cheese's, which are nothing compared to the dark cabaret awesomeness of the 80's; are always insanely packed. But kids today...they have their home consoles, so no interest in arcade culture. They got their computer effects...

    Muppets you'd like to see back...

    I like how the Bossmen made a big return in 2002's a Very Muppet Christmas movie. Also good to see Carl featured in Muppets Take Over NBC's today as well as Letters to Santa. Splurge was set to be the main star of the very Fraggle Rock like "Scary Scary Monsters" Jim Henson Muppet brand...

    A Documentary All Muppet Fans Should See

    I was absolutely thrilled and touched to see the trailer to this documentary film coming out soon. It's called "The Rock-afire Explosion", and is a full length theatrical documentary film about Chuck E Cheese's main compeditor(and eventual partner) ShowBiz Pizza Time and the fan community...

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    I know I am not the only one who thinks Muppets At Walt Disney World is one of the best Muppet specials ever next to Muppet Family Christmas :)

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    1. I stand corrected then, apologies. Before the "Indy" Kermit came out, on here and the Palisades forum people were saying it was done out of "parody" as Palisades did not have the approval for an Indiana Jones themed Kermit(it also didnt mention Indiana Jones on the package) I mean shoot...

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    Eh, "legal" can be bent. Palisades came out with an unlicenced Indiana Jones Kermit figure.

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    I'm not splitting heirs. I'm talking about what virtually everyone but lawyers know. First of all, in retrospect it is of utmost fortune for all these properties to be split up. Yes, we all whined about the mere idea of Disney taking over. But, if JHC had to focus on Muppets...they'd...

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    Um, legally Bert and Ernie, and all Sesame Street characters are trademarked as Muppets. Also, Bert and Ernie are clearly in the pilot bonus feature on the Muppet Show seasons. I get what you're saying, but how sad is it that a Muppet property can only "homage" other Muppets? I guess...

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    Whoah! That is Bert and Ernie. Well, Bert was in the background of the Muppet Show Sex and Violence pilot, as well as both Bert and Ernie had speaking roles in the Valentines Special. Btw, I think that's a Koozebane alien not a Sesame bug. Oh! Btw man, I found this picture of the new...

    10 Years On Muppet Central, A Dream Comes True

    I am blown away with how many continually updated and new sketches they have on Muppets.com Im just 1) wishing it was easier to navigate, as you have to play detective to know which clips are new and to find some of them (tho I guess thats part of the fun) 2) I wish I knew how to...

    Will There Be News From Toy Fair 2009?

    Haha, I go to my local Marshalls to get cheap gourmet coffee and chocolates, and I saw cheap TMNT playsets. Man I really miss the 2003-"Fast Forward" playmates figures. They've just ran out of milage completely with the TMNT 2007 movie likenesses. Im surprised they even have shelve space...

    Will There Be News From Toy Fair 2009?

    Im not much a fan of "Disneyana", but I have to say that Mickey/Optimus Prime playset is one of the coolest things Ive seen Disney wise next to the Star Wars Muppets figure set.

    Aww! Thankies! I *totally* remember you! Oh goodness, Im glad Ive sooo tamed down from some of my old style of postings back in 1998-2002, heh. Well, weve all matured in good ways Im sure. Wow, so MC the site itself is 11 years old? Anyone else remember...

    Will There Be News From Toy Fair 2009?

    Oh I certainly was not referring to specialty stores. I LOVE those kind of stores. There's one near me that specializes in vintage action figures called Toy Fusion(tho I was able to get an MOC variant Uncle Deadly and MOC Sweetums combined for $20) But I was referring to the overall prices...
