Honestly, I'm not such a big fan of the album. I think that Disney's target audience was the younger teen crowd, who are fans of these individual artists/bands, so that they would become familiar w/the Muppets' music.

Hello, Check out this really cool link on playbill.com... http://www.playbill.com/multimedia/video/4620.html -MLB:eek:

Yeah, I think that Melonpool is right and that these are radio controlled mechanisms. Their hands/arms are moving too much to have a Big Bird like string and operate the arms w/one hand & the mouth with the other. They also keep every mouth movement consistent; no variety in the amount that the...

Yeah, the Disney Store cast members almost ALWAYS switch around some of the boxes. That way someone can't just buy a case off the web, open all of them and then show where everyone is located on Youtube or something; because then people would just walk in a buy the chasers.

Hello all, I need to make clown shoes for a puppet project that I'm doing. I am thinking somewhere btwn. 4-5" in length. Any ideas on how to make the big "bulb" like part on the end? I was thinking that I just carve the whole shoe out of foam and then Sculpt or Coating the whole thing and then...

I once read that if you buy really junky colored socks and throw them in the wash w/the antron, it will dye the antron.....But I suggest that you just dye it using the boiling water liquid dye method. I think that the color will be better. When I need to dye small batches, I boil water in a...

So I recently went to the exhibit at the Museum of Moving Image (http://www.movingimage.us/) and really enjoyed it. The only downside was that we weren't allowed to take photos throughout the exhibit . One thing that was cool was the fact that Mayor Michael Bloomberg loaned his personal Muppet...

don't like the mold. The first mold has more Mickey Mouse qualities ( nose, buttons on chest, etc.); and since Vinylmation is supposed to revolve around Mickey, it should maintain those characteristics. I guess that it is easier to design when there aren't as many bumps or "obstacles" on the...

Your designs are better than most of the real ones! You should buy some of the vinylmation create your owns and actually make them!

I agree with you. I have a feeling that after the movie in November, Disney will start making the Muppets more mainstream and expose people to the more unknown characters. -MLB:eek:

That is great! People can see the movies and get a little background before November comes around!

It would be cool if one of the Disney magazines came out with a special collector's edition Muppets issue like they did for Cars 2.

Just bought some of the old Sesame Street Pez. I got :wisdom:,:insatiable:,:p, and Zoe.

That's funny! I haven't seen one like that, only errors in the paint and in other series. Like my Buzz Lightyear from the Toy Story series has his control pad not exactly on his chest. I think that you can snap out the pieces though, so you can probably fix it. Plus, I would think that if you...

So here's what I think. For the blinking eyes, use this site: http://puppeteersunite.com/?page_id=588 That's what I used to learn how to do it and the puppet wound up coming out really well! My only suggestion not in the video is to make a tab w/finger hole so that you can move the mouth and...

That's interesting.

I just got a penguin and Zoot. I really like the addition of the removable hat.

Yes, I recommend starting any puppet with the head. It gets the scale right for the body, and really helps you figure out what character you are going for so that you can create the body to fit it well. Plus, I find that making the head is just much more FUN than making the body. A lot more room...
