BUMP! Anyone? Alex

Hey, frogpuppeteer. Email me at Ploovo241@aol.com and let me know how much you want for the Beaker! I'm hoping to acquire quite a few Muppet figures in the next couple of weeks. Some for customs, some to complete the few holes remaining in my collection. Might as well nab an extra Beaker for...

NEW SEARCH! I know that in the last couple of years, I saw a snippet from Kermit hosting the Tonight Show back in 1979. He says that the Muppets went to Disneyland and the guard didn't want to let them leave. But I don't recall anything else from that Tonight Show, so I am thinking it must...

Yeah, but even if I were able to get my hands on extra Beakers, they'd go toward my '6 Beaker' diorama for the Mac Davis episode. I'm actually talking to the seamstress from the play I did last month about sewing me some little tiny hospital scrubs for Dr. Bob and the two nurses. Then I would...

He's also got some other shots that show some of what you can't see in the wide shot, be sure to browse his other pics. Thanks for posting those, Jeff! Love the detail of Rizzo sitting on a broken spring protruding through the seat. Alex

Steve Whitmire has the best job in the world, and you can feel that in Kermit's happiness. Alex

No problem! By the way, here's the writeup I did for the panel at EndorExpress.net, with a link to the video playlist and some nifty photos provided by Orlando Attractions Magazine... http://www.endorexpress.net/special-features/cv-disney-parks-collector-panel/ He got good stills of all the...

Lamango, have you got a pic of Diddy Kong as Sal? Or at least, standing next to a Johnny Fiama figure? Thanks to the prototype turnaround pics that Rowlfy linked, I want more than ever to hand-sculpt a Sal and get someone to cast it for me. I may even have acquired a new contact who can do the...

Oh my! How did I miss that episode? I had never seen that one before, thanks for mentioning it. Alex

Update... the seller contacted me again to tell me not to bother returning them. I can keep them, and he issued a full refund on the price I paid, too. That was amazingly decent of him! And yet I'm still in need of an undamaged set of these. Alex

This is ironic... I had to create several "Off-Topic" threads over at Rebelscum's forums, since the Muppets aren't technically anything to do with Star Wars collecting. And now here at the Muppet website, we're getting off-topic talking about Star Wars again. Anyway, Taz, check your e-mail...

Hey folks, I'm the Muppet fan, my Mom is the Gone with the Wind fan, so I guess it was inevitable that at some point I would try to buy this set. I saw the boxed set of six on eBay for a decent price, was the only person who bid on it, and thought, "Great, I've got Mother's Day out of the...

BUMP! And for those of you reading this thread from the start, we have just jumped forward nearly NINE YEARS. As soon as I learned about these, I wanted to get a set. I got a partial set from someone here on MuppetCentral, and that only whetted my appetite. So recently one of my usually...

Scaled to the Muppets? Or just scaled to regular Star Wars figures? I have a huge Star Wars collection and have done a few simple dioramas. For some reason, I've never tackled the Tantive IV. Which is kinda surprising... You see, the guy who gave that name ("Tantive IV") to Princess Leia's...

Sweet, rowlfy! Thanks! Those will be tremendously helpful when I finally begin trying to sculpt that bad boy. I just saved them into my Muppet projects folder. Taz, the Donkey Kong figure idea has been brought up before, and I can see the appeal of using an ape that's wearing a tie to make an...

Sal is one of those figures that I keep postponing, but I've had several people approach me about making one. The problem with Sal is that Super-Sculpey works best as a veneer over a poseable action figure, but it's too fragile to use for the points of articulation. So first I need a base...

Hey Taz, Have you seen this vinyl Bean Bunny? http://threads.rebelscum.com/imagepopup.php?imagename=http:%2F%2Fthreads.rebelscum.com%2Fphotogallery%2Fwatermark.php?file=191468&imagewidth=858&imageheight=643 He comes in the set of five pictured, which was available only at the Disney...

Well, how's this for service? I just got a delayed response from Disney Parks Merchandise (specifically, one of the three guys from the same panel that I videotaped back in August) to an older email I'd sent him on this very topic! To paraphrase, the Muppets/Star Wars figures *were* originally...

Checked the after-Easter half-off sale to see if they still had them, but couldn't find these anymore. Maybe next year! Alex

I was at that panel back in August in Orlando, and posted video of it on my YouTube account (LextheRobot). Since then, I've asked a few times with my contact at Disney Parks Merchandise about release dates, but I never get a definitive response. I can say this... as was recently stated on...
