    Is there a book on the making of TGMC?

    Thanks very much for your help.The second option is not the same book.I have now placed an order with AbeBooks, which is a division of Amazon, so hopefully is more trust worthy.I wont be dealing with Alibris again.

    Is there a book on the making of TGMC?

    Darn it, my order has been cancelled because it is unavailable.Wish they wouldnt waste my time by being hungry for an order they dont have in the first place.Back to the drawing board.

    UK: Disney.co.uk - Muppets.com!

    I wish muppets.com would be axcessible worldwide.I dont know why it cant.Supposedly because Disney wants viewing suitable for your region, but what's not suitable about watching Muppet clips and games?

    Fozzie reference picture used for sculpture.

    The body seems to be too thin and reminds me of the Disney caricature that they used on a full body lanyard.The video jacket pic seems to fit, but of course it is up to how the Sculptor interprets it.Note the difference on the Piggy with fan based dress and how the sculpture turned out.Also note...

    Fozzie reference picture used for sculpture.

    Here is what all the others have been based on: I still think that Fozzie too was based on established artwork or photo, and that the video cover pic is the best so far.

    Fozzie reference picture used for sculpture.

    Here is the set: which was available in Australia and the UK.You can find them from time to time on ebay. Not pictured is Kermit sitting on a stool, playing the Banjo.It is out of left frame and can just see the stool legs.

    Fozzie reference picture used for sculpture.

    I think I may have found it! It was used on the cover of Time Life Vol 15 Muppet Show video. Now I have to find the original image without Piggy,Scooter and kermit superimposed over it.Does anybody have it?

    Is there a book on the making of TGMC?

    No, not yet.It says it should arrive by Sep 2! rather a long time.Hope it is not a scam and they put that long so that paypal's 45 day protection expires.

    Is there Muppet continuity/canon?

    I think it is a bit of both-acting and biographic.And when something biographic doesnt work, such as Kermit and Piggy getting married, then they can cover up by saying they are acting.To me, they are only really acting when they are not being themselves, such as in Muppet Treasure Island...

    Need help identifying Kermit/Animal figures

    They were made by A La Carte in Germany.If you go to the muppet collectibles section on this site and click on Toys and scroll down, you will see their Statler & waldorf, Swedish Chef and Bunsen & Beaker prototype.They were made out of Latex, not my favourite material otherwise I would of bought...

    Fozzie reference picture used for sculpture.

    Bump! Any Fozzie fans not seen this pose before from a photo or picture? It has me beat! As I mentioned, I have found all what the other sculptures were based on, just not Fozzie.Seems strange that a licensee would go for established concept Art/photos for all bar one, and then do their own for...

    eFX's Rizzo Thread

    What people are refering to as realistic plush is the same manufacturing process as the posers(ie made by the same studio pattern and same or simular materials) but instead of putting it over a wire armature, it will just be soft filled like plush.So it will be a visual replica, but cheaper...

    Is there a book on the making of TGMC?

    Thanks.Actually, I have now found a online place that sells it and have just ordered it.I was hoping to find a full length picture of Miss piggy in her prison outfit, but sounds like it is not in there?

    Is there a book on the making of TGMC?

    I have come across book cover art work for The Great Muppet Caper-The Making of the Masterpiece.It pictures kermit and Animal wraped around in film tape.I have never seen this book or any book dealing solely in behind the scenes of this movie, only story picture books.Has anybody actually seen a...

    I have a set of 9 Muppet resin figures and noticed they have been sculpt from photos or sketch art.I am going to display the picture along side the figure and have found all except I havent been able to find the reference that was used for Fozzie. Does anybody recognise a Fozzie photo or sketch...

    eFX's Rizzo Thread

    If someone did want to make realistic plush, I am sure eFX would have something to say about it as it would be direct competition with their licence! I know I wouldnt be happy if I was given a licence to make a product and then find another licence was granted for almost the same thing which...
