    Ask Travis: A Master Replicas Photo Puppet Q&A Thread

    Wow... FYI, you guys are killing me. I promised myself I would only come in a couple of times a week, but questions are pouring in, and I cannot resist... Aaarrrggghhhh! Fozzie will not have a stand. I assume this would be true of any of the larger Muppet Photo Puppets, but we're not...

    Ask Travis: A Master Replicas Photo Puppet Q&A Thread

    The whole Animal mouth thing was... well, before I was involved in the project in any official capacity. So I really cannot speak to it. The mouth WOULD close, if the tongue were more spongey or foamy. It was the replacement materials that the team chose that prevent the mouth from cloing...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    Wow. That's really good. The suit is more inline, in terms of color. But he nost is lighter than on your mock up. Curses, I need to get some pictures!

    Ask Travis: A Master Replicas Photo Puppet Q&A Thread

    Again, I don't have the original here, and the photos are so drastically different that it's hard to tell. Remember -- Gonzo is one of those characters that has undergone so many changes over the years. Like the Palisades action figure, the Photo Puppet was always intended to be something of...

    Preliminary Thoughts on Master Replica's Fozzie Bear

    Hey Eric- First of all, I think to say that you were "betrayed" is a bit extreme, regardless of the outcome of the situation. The truth of the matter is that we did go back to the drawing board, as I mentioned in my previous post. We tried a number of different options, and delayed the...

    Hey everyone - see, I am going to try to keep up with this... First of all, thanks to everyone for the kind words about my son. He is a joy, and eventually, I wil post some pics of him with my (or are they now his?) Muppet photo puppets! Okay, down to business, Ken Lilly style: does MR...

    Preliminary Thoughts on Master Replica's Fozzie Bear

    Hey everyone- First of all, my sincere apologies for not being around at all lately. As Amy mentioned a while back, my role with the company has changed pretty drastically. Before I get into the Muppety specifics -- those that I can address, anyway -- a little background on me, and what I do...

    Preorder the Animal Muppet Replica

    Well, as I mentioned before... we're still working on him. And we don't want to put him up for pre-order until we can KNOW we can make him -- and more importantly, HOW we're going to make him. So, I don't know. We have a date in mind, but I will not share it, in case we miss it... Believe...

    Preorder the Animal Muppet Replica

    Hi everybody! First of all, I would like to address Tom Mogan's issue: Sorry to say, count me out. For these prices don't you think they could have produced them, if not in the USA (the country responsible for their conceptual existence and design), at least in a country not quite so...

    Animal Photo Puppet: So which one is it?

    The Animal that WAS in my office (note the past tense, as he is now gone) is the one that is on the MR site. The next time that a sample comes in, I will try to grab him and get a couple of new photos for y'all!

    Animal Photo Puppet: So which one is it?

    You know, you're right... his nose was photoshopped red. I missed that!

    Animal Photo Puppet: So which one is it?

    There is no photo trickery... the photo in the newsletter is Terry's original prototype. The one on the site is the factory's FIRST sample. Changes are still being made to this one... The image in the link below IS photoshopped... It's the image I sent to our PD department, where I showed...

    Next Muppet Replicas: Gonzo, Animal

    I believe it was looked into, and I think the issue with that option was that it made the nose brittle and non-flexible... which meant it could crack, and would not be able to be moved.

    Oh, and by the way... sorry I disappeared last night. I had to go home and eat dinner, and spend some time with my girlfriend and my puppies. ;) So, I will give you an oh-so-subtle hint as to confirm ONE of the characters for next year. Ready? * * * * * * * SCROLL DOWN * * * *...

    Next Muppet Replicas: Gonzo, Animal

    Wow Keeermit, that are really, really good. I mean REALLY good. Here's the thing you all have to remember... we are mass producing these guys, and when you mass produce anything -- even only 1,500 or 2,500 units -- you have to make concessions. First and foremost, price is an issue. If I...
