    Your Animal Replica Pictures

    Well, if you're anything like me, you will be going through a variety of emotions from horror to complete giddyness when you take him out of the box. I remember taking him out of the box and being completely shocked at how "big" his hair was and thinking he looked nothing like Animal. Then I...

    Posing Your Kermit Replica

    This is the greatest thread ever! Thanks for all of your hard work KermieBaby. What a fantastic resource. MR should be posting some of these pics on the Kermit sales page!

    That tells me they may be still doing some troubleshooting on the line. Thanks for the update obi!

    I still think the material and texture of Animal's teeth would be perfect for Gonzo's nose...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    The only foam that I can think of is the foam on his eyelids (which was a bad choice anyway).

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    It's great to hear from you Terry! Your Gonzo and Fozzie are the greatest things in the world. If MR can come even close to either of those two, we'll have the greatest Muppet products ever produced! If we can just get to Fozzie, I'll be satisfied. Piggy would certainly be a great bonus. I do...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    I've been wondering since I received Animal if the foam and texture of Animal's teeth would work for Gonzo's nose. The pitted texture would seem to be perfect – I almost wonder if Animal's teeth were a test for the Gonzo nose. The only thing that doesn't work is how hard it is, but that may be...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    The truth just comes down to the fact that at the heart of everything, we want MR to succeed. The better these products are, the more they will sell, and the line will continue. Very rarely does a company have an opportunity to post on one or two message boards and literally reach almost 100%...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    My concern (from working with Palisades) is that the approval process is so slow with Disney that a product will get initial approval from disney and then adjustments can't be made from that point on because it takes too long to go back through the approval process. I don't think it's so...

    Your Animal Replica Pictures

    Mine has a small plate under the tongue – not a full plate covering the entire surface. My Animal's tongue is a rubbery foam. I'm sure they produced these things in one batch. Due to cost, I can't imagine they made changes halfway through the production run.

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    Well said, it may be that they aren't showing updated protos because they know how we all jump on them. They may be waiting for the final product before showing him off. My only problem is the lack of communication for a $300 product that MR is taking pre-orders for and we still haven't seen...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    I seem to remember someone (I believe it was Travis) saying that the color of his suit was the color Disney had given them and that it wouldn't be changing. But, Travis also said that Animal's pants wouldn't be pleather and would be changed to a material but we all know that didn't happen...

    Your Animal Replica Pictures

    Isn't that how they all are? Mine is like that. The bottom jaw "plate" is the size of his tongue and under where his tongue is. It's annoying because his mouth won't stay shut even if you remove his tongue (which I have done). I wish they would have put a wire under his bottom lip so that...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    If it's true about the sock nose, then why the delay? Gonzo was supposed to be ready months ago but it was his nose that was holding things up. If they were still going with the dreaded sock nose, then he would've come out months ago. I have to say though, the lack of word and new pics from MR...

    So Antony, were you able to fix his jaw?

    Thanks TML! I order the necklace and bracelets. I'm looking forward to seeing how they look!

    Your Animal Replica Pictures

    Yeah, I've been surprised since I got him that he doesn't have a wire running through his bottom lip to give you more control. I gotta give a couple of shououts: Antonydavanzo: You were the reason I ended up buying Animal! You've gotten him to look perfect. In one of your pics Animal has...

    The Official Customizing MR Animal Thread

    That new tongue looks great MC. I'm thinking about cutting the thickness down with an Xacto knife along the seam and then using an orbital sander to take some more of the depth down and make sure it is smooth. I'll post pics as soon as I get it done (it may be a couple of days though because my...

    The Official Customizing MR Animal Thread

    I have Animal on his way and thought it'd be great if we had a dedicated thread where people who have him would show off what they've done to get their Animal looking the way they want (oddly enough, since I had the idea someone else has requested this info in the other thread). This way...
