Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
Thanks for the link. That's exactly what I was looking for. And yes Uncle Deadly is the light blue "Dragonish" Muppet I was wondering about. AKA the Phantom of The Muppet Show.

I was wondering if anybody has ever seen a databse or encyclopedia-type list of all the muppets? Picture and name if nothing else. There's so many it would be a daunting task, but there's some that I just can't remeber the names of, or never even knew the names of. For instance I remember there...
Extra Hairs?
Only in my ears, I'm afraid:)
Strange you should ask. I actually got it cut short last week(first time in eleven years) but had to give my ponytail to the misses. Glad to hear about Link's texture. That was the thing that bothered me (and just about everybody else from what I...
Pig Skin
Hey Ken, This may have already been covered before I got on the board but I've read through the thread pretty thoroughly and didn't see it so...
I was looking at the sculpt images of Link on Action Figure News' and noticed that there was no discernable texture in his face and ears...
Re: The Neverhood??
No, never heard of the "hood. I got "Hoopy" from Douglas Addams' Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy series. As in "He's one hoopy frood!" -trans- "He's a very cool guy!"

I found it linking from theonering.net

Are you talking about your local Suncoast store? I checked their website and it only has the Muppet Labs playset. I tried calling my local outlet and they also had only the playset(for $24.99)

Well I'm all for it if you have the artistic chops to make it look better. I guess, ultimately, it's up to your prefrence. Which is more important to you? Preserving the figure "as purchased" as much as possible so as to be a more valuable collectible. Or having a figure that has the appearance...
Dark Crystal & other muppets on view
Just an FYI for anyone who doesn't already know. There is a wonderful place in Atlanta called the Center For Puppetry Arts. In their museum they have the original Garthim master puppet(with his sword from the "Trial by stone" scene) as well as Dr...
Man, sales guys get all the cool gigs! Designers never get to meet anybody. We just get locked away in dark rooms and have deadlines thrown at us. "Faster! Faster you paint-monkeys!"
;)
Just kidding. I'm really just envious. I did get to go out to LA and visit Disney a couple of years ago...
You're right Ken, I know it, I'm just fighting the battle between getting the cool, fun stuff I want and doing the responsible, grown-up budget balancing stuff I'm 'supposed' to do.;)

Don't panic! I don't think all of them are parodies of someone, just a few that I've noticed and thought would be interesting to discuss. But if this is a zombie topic I can move on. I guess "maynard" was the parody maniac?

HOLY MOLEY! Now I really can't wait for the UPS guy to show up with this. Animal looks Fantastic! The finished sculpt -vs- the first "wet-head" look is just no contest! Any chance the ship date will be before Nov 14 since they opend the ports back up today?

Help out a newbie
Hey can somebody tell me how to include an avatar(I think that's the name)with my posts? I mean the little image under the user name if Avatar isn't the right word.

For instance:
Dr. Teeth is obviously Dr. John
I think Scooter was supposed to be a sort of Ron Howard (Opie/Ritchie Cunningham) take off.
I'm pretty sure Janice was based on Joni Mitchell and I think Animal may have been inspired by Terry Bozio, Frank Zappa's drummer in the mid seventies...
I'm pretty sure I remeber Floyd refering to Janice as his "Old Lady" once or twice (could just be my imagination though) and as far as where Animal lives I have a theory:
See, I used to be a light/sound tech for a Rock/Funk band. We had a converted School bus for out of town gigs and the back...
Hey all,
First this is the one that really got me second thinking my original plan to only get Electric Mayhem stuff. When I read about this I let out a "Whoop!" big enough to startle my wife and she wasn't even in the room. Sweetums is my number 2 favorite muppet after Animal (and closely...
