I've emailed them and gotten a response. For what it's worth, the person that I am communicating with says they're going to try to get photos to me (which I will share IF I get them). Hopefully, they won't just send the pics of the original prototype. Really, none of us have any idea what they...

Yes, normally pre-orders show a prototype and not the final product. But normally, that prototype isn't completely redesigned. Using something that isn't representative of the final product to solicit orders is bad business practice – plain and simple. It's one thing to buy a $12 action...

Absolutely! The slight overbite on Terry's Fozzie is a big part of the likeness. Being able to move Animal's bottom jaw from side to side (and close his mouth) is another example of how important it is to the likeness that they have some kind of articulation in their jaws/mouths. I can't tell...

Due to the bad pics, I wasn't going to pre-order him. But my wife pre-ordered him for me as a Christmas present (which was very sweet of her). Animal was my favorite character but I waited to get him until Antony's photos sold me. I have Kermit, but had pretty much decided to pass on Animal...

Holy poop! He looks EXACTLY like the MuppetHeap version!

It seems odd to me that they would take the time to post a review ( even with as great as it is) on their site but wouldn't take the time to update the crappy photos on the same website. Especially odd since this is a high dollar/low quantity item with very little marketing resources behind it.

I don't know. The mouth issue wouldn't have been an issue until the tongue was in place so it's very possible that the thickness of the tongue was a mistake too late in production to fix (see: the incredibly undersized Gaffer the Cat from Palisades as a great example). As for the rim on the...

They'd better put out updated pics of Gonzo or I am going to assume that the pics with the sock nose are representative of the final product and will cancel my pre-order – maybe!:D

The wife and I love Muppet Party Cruise! It's a Mario Party-style game but much, much better than any of the Mario Partys we've played. The graphics are good, the mini-games are fantastic, and the voices are excellent. If you're a Muppet fan, and like part games, I wouldn't pass it up!

No. There's just one. Just curious, why do you think there are two?

Has anyone else noticed that the MR Animal face actually looks more like Crazy Harry than it looks like Animal? I think it's the overly large bags under his eyes. If someone knew about dying materials (and had some money to burn), they could probably make a great looking Crazy Harry out of...

That is SO funny! I was going to ask the same thing. I've had the urge to trim his moustache over the last day or two but I can't get the nerve up to do it. I really think a big part of the problem with the MR Animal is the overall "mushroom" look to his hair. Trimming the moustache would...

Fantastic review Jamie!

I would rather have any of the Mayhem, Robin, Pepe, or Rizzo before any of the characters on the list. I chose Rowlf as my fav of the four. I have purchased all three so far and will buy Fozzie and probably Piggy but I don't think I would buy any of those on that list besides Rowlf.

True on all points. But, I would think Animal was the worst thing there was if I hadn't seen the fan pictures here on these boards. Best to hold off on judgement until we actually see the new prototype.

It certainly can't be worse...

I am going crazy with anticipation! At least someone there has acknowledged that there were problems with their prototype. Honestly, it wouldn't take much to make it better than what they've shown so I'm cautiously optimistic! Boy, it would be amazing if MR could hit a grand slam with...

If they could get Rizzo out there for $150-$200 I would say a lower priced Muppet would be the way to go at that point (and that could be Rizzo or Pepe – I'd rather have Pepe I think). I would like to see them try to get a Mayhem set started and go with Dr. Teeth or Zoot after Piggy.

The spiked collar and shackles are perfect. My animal's been sporting them for a couple of weeks!

Agreed. I think that if we can get to Fozzie, he should sell quite well (if he remains the quality of Terry's prototype). But the question is if Animal and Gonzo's sales will allow us to get there. As soon as we see the pics of the final Gonzo, we should know almost immediately what the fate of...
