I agree, it also seems odd that MR aren't charging for the Collectors Society next year. This would mean that, should MR fold, they would have no obligation or commitments to honour as they haven't taking any money. It really does (to suspicious fools like me) seem that MR are on the brink of a...

Hi Leann, I have seen one frequently appearing on ebay built by a professional puppet builder for $. He build's them to your spec however they are 100% unofficial Muppet merchandise, though they look pretty close to the real thing! Hope this helps!

Thanks for the kind words, Jamie. I'm hoping to get my website up and running by March and intend to use the illustration I sent to Disney. I got down to the final few which was quite a feat and ended up doing a Kids book the week after, so it worked out fairly well in the end. I really...

If I'm honest, I don't like the illustrations much. They seem like a cheap imitation of the illustrations used in the Muppet Annuals from the 1980's, especially Animal and Fozzie. I applied for a job at Disney® in the UK as an illustrator last year. I submitted a sketch of the Muppets, mainly to...

It's truly worrying just how giddy I get when I see that Terry has posted!:crazy:

Hey MuppetCaper, Can I just take a moment to say a quick Thanks for all your helping getting info over to us on this board. I saw some messages on the MR Forum from you last week and meant to say thanks. It really helps us out and I for one truly appreciate it :)

Well put frogboy4!

I agree that we are lucky that these are being produced but as I've stated before, it's unlikely that something like this will ever be done again so I for one want MR to get it right. Gonzo doesn't just require a better pose. The defining characteristic of Gonzo (his nose) is waaaaaay off. What...

Woah woah woah! The tongue is now FOAM? Thats a funny way of thanking those of us that pre-ordered Animal - you get a cr** tongue. Why couldn't MR just replace the tongue and solve all issues. I think I may contact MR an see if they'll provide a foam tongue and I'll do just that, although it's...

At the price Gonzo's coming in at and how AWFUL those proto's look I'm afraid Master Replicas have lost another sale here too!

I wholeheartedly agree. I keep leaving it a while and then revisiting the Gonzo proto images hoping I was harsh in my judgement...I wasn't. It seems to get WORSE everytime I see the blue fella. I had no issues with Animal, my eyes were perfectly placed and nearly two months on I still can't stop...

Jim and Frank!;)

More and more over time, I'm starting to really want a Dr. Teeth replica. :D He really would be an awesome addition and other than the ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENTLY-PRODUCED EXQUISITE Palisades Line-up, he's never been done any justice! He's another great classic character. That said, I really...

Not neccessarily true...by the time the grab mechanism decides to actually hold onto one I think they'll work out about the same price. P.S For a second I thought the image of Gonzo was the new MR prototype from China...only joking, ONLY JOKING!

Wow! They just look like the real thing:p

Hi, I agree with Telly, ebay would be your best bet, or maybe Toynk.com. However, if you love Animal, you don't get any better than this... http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000RLDNJC?tag=muppetcentral&camp=15309&creative=374845&linkCode=st1&creativeASIN=B000RLDNJC&adid=0FEEQ0REQHDQNV0QY1F5&...

WHOA, how awesome are your Muppets! They are amazing! How did you learn how to make them? Your Gonzo looks mint!

I soooooo sorry about yer Animal, Antony. If it's any consolation, customer services at Master Replicas are second to none. I exchanged one of my Kermits last year for very trivial reasons(his eyes bugged me and he had a scuff on his face and belly) and Jerry was really really helpful. They...

Hi Folks, I found the best way to get the hair down was use a fine spray of water to add weight to the feathers and they naturally stay down. I was scared of using something that would permanantly attach to the feathers. JUST TO WARN YOU THOU... I panicked after I first sprayed him 'cos he...

CRIKEY!:eek: What kind of nights out do you have. I sweat if I spend more than £50:p Good ploy with the collector zone, I think it was your post that made me use 'em so they made that tenner back!
