    Muppet Posters at Denny's

    This I do know is true, as Frank was spotlighted on some behind-the-scenes program when the commercials were first out. I believe they were focusing on the commercial in which the Bunny squares off against Darth Vader.

    Muppet What Not Figure

    The sketches look pretty good. The only thing I would suggest right now is to not make the head a magnet, but instead to give it a plastic plug to put into the neck socket (sort of like a hard plastic version of the old Mego heads). This way the head can turn when it's put in. With a magnet...

    Update - Timelife Muppet DVDs!

    Here is an excerpt of the e-mail I received from them on May 6th: "Thank you for writing. We plan to have additional volumes available on DVD this July. At this time, we do not know if these items will offered as a set. Please feel free to check back with us at that time for any updates we...

    Your ideas: 4 free 03 Palisades spots?

    Exactly, and that's kind of the point I was making. As long as Palisades keeps the bigger stars available every year, and still leaving plenty of room for fresh characters, then older and newer collectors should be happy. But why? As you said, Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, and Gonzo are already...

    Your ideas: 4 free 03 Palisades spots?

    Well, and I can't speak for Palisades as they may have a different thinking on this, traditionally variants come about because a toy manufacturer is worried that if the main character(s) isn't represented, then a consumer may pass on whoever is available. So, in this case, next year at some...

    Your ideas: 4 free 03 Palisades spots?

    Agreed. As much as I like Sam, I don't think we need to see a new one of him every year. Palisades will already have enough big guns to juggle variations around to keep them available every year (Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Animal, maybe Rowlf or Scooter). I can wait until 2004 for another...

    Do you want a Pepe figure in series 6?

    Re: Eeeek! Frogboy, I think the main worry everyone (myself included) has is that we still don't know how well this line will do or how long it will last. I hope without limits that the line will shoot off like a rocket at retail and it's around for twenty series, but right now all we know...

    Do you want a Pepe figure in series 6?

    I'm of the thinking that a Pepe figure would be really cool and I would buy it in a second, but I wouldn't want to see a classic character get pushed back because of him. Maybe if characters like Lips, Rizzo, Pops, Marvin Suggs, and Uncle Deadly were confirmed and firmly set in stone in a...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Re: Derth Nader Well, now I'm a little confused. I was under the impression that Palisades couldn't make the Derth Nader figure because it would conflict with Hasbro's license on Star Wars characters. But, if I am to understand this post as meaning that Palisades doesn't think Lucasfilm...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Re: Ken- At the very least, Palisades may want to put a sticker on Statler's bubble announcing "Look for Waldorf in Series 7!" so that a casual buyer wouldn't be discouraged from buying Statler if they don't see a Waldorf at the store, too. That's disappointing that more people haven't...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Re: Zoot and clarinet Yeah, if only there was ever a trumpet player in the Electric Mayhem....a-hem....sig sig sig :D Zoot also handled a tambourine in the Paul Simon episode, so they would also make a cool little accessory. But my main query about the Zoot variant is if he himself...

    Toyfare issue with Kermit offer on sale NOW!

    Re: price Well, if I read the order form correctly, Kermit's $17 only if you want it shipped UPS. He's $14 if you want him shipped like ninth-class in a poorly assembled cardboard wrapper being passed off as a shipping box. Seriously, the Simpsons figures I have bought from them in the...

    Muppet Christmas Carol DVD

    I read about it on the dvdfile.com web site, which is one of the few DVD sites I trust with reporting correct specs and stuff. It was in a huge glut of a list of other Disney DVD releases for September 3rd, and the site noted the fact that Christmas Carol was the only one in the batch being...

    Muppet Christmas Carol DVD

    I don't quite remember what the latest news was on the old forum about the DVD, but it was announced today that "Muppet Christmas Carol" will be full-frame only and (most likely) will include the trailer. :( I have already fired off a letter to Disney's home video department asking them to...
