Jim Henson Idea Man
Remember the life. Honor the legacy. Inspire your soul. The new Jim Henson documentary "Idea Man" is now streaming exclusively on Disney+.
Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
Don't worry, he hasn't gone up for sale yet. That's just the placeholder page on DS.com. They do it a lot for upcoming Vinylmations.
A CM at the Disney store told me that he should be available the weekend of the 11th. The Disney Stores are doing a Muppet event where you can come in and do a...
There wasn't much merch at all for either of those films. We went mad trying to find Rapunzel toys for my niece at the time of the Tangled release. They just didn't exist.
Now that the film has done well on DVD the Disney stores are getting more and more Tangled merch in (including a really...
My wife calls these forums my "Negative place" or the "Anti -Jim forum" because of all the griping and negativity that seems to go on here anytime something new pops up.
I had a Gonzo the Great doll I lugged around everywhere. He was often accompanied by an Animal Puppet (his eyebrows moved!) and a Scooter with hard rubber shoes.
I also had the little action figures that you stuck to the end of a little stick and bounced around. I used to take egg cartoons and...
Well it was confirmed by the artist at the Florida Project that Muppets series 3 won't be coming out until 2013 and that one of the figures in the series will be Mahna Mahna. I was really hoping they'd do a push to coincide with the new film.
Ah well. At least there is a Kermit MV3-D balloon...
There's a pic posted by Muppetperson :D

He's still not perfect (the green is a bit to light) but he's nowhere near the abomination that is flat eyed Kermit from those promo shots
Congrats! I hope you open adventure Kermit too! He's my favorite figure and so much fun to pose (though I did recently pick up a MIP one on eBay for $6.99 to keep new. But mostly just in case I damage mine). There is nothing better then looking over a nicely displayed loose figure collection.
Don't judge the Rainbow Connection Kermit by the pictures on that site. Those are of the pre-release version. The final release is drastically different. There is no pattern on the chest and the eyes are actually raised and circular for example. Unfortunatly most places haven't updated the pics...
Couple more of these coming out at the end of the year:
Gonzo:

And Kermit and Piggy Bookends:

Gonzo will be a must have for me. These are just the promotional shots so the final products...
My biggest want for series 3 is a Jim Muppet 9" with a 3" Kermit.
I made myself a 3" Gonzo. I posted him over in the action figure forum. It's really addicting. I've been making them non stop ever since :D

The black and white ones sell out almost instantly. For me the base color doesn't matter since I prime them anyhow. DS.com restocks every few weeks.
They just painted one on. Here's a pic of the upcoming 9" at the bottom of this post

He was just a blank red. I added a before shot of him unprimed with the nose.
So I collect the Muppet Vinylmation Line and I was a bit annoyed at Gonzo being a 9" figure. For Animal I can see it...give him a bottle of growing pills and you've got yourself a Muppet Movie! But Gonzo?
So I took a stab at costumizing my own. Other then being a bit to dark for my liking he...
A woman I work with has a Mickey one and she hasn't had any scratches or anything. She just tosses her phone in her purse/pocket without to much worry about the case.
Disney will be releasing a Vinylmation/Hat combo based on Animal and the Electric Mayhem!

:halo:
It's incredibly lucky. I opened him last and when I saw the clear ear I assumed it was another penguin. It wasn't till I got home and took them fully out of the box I realized I had pulled the chaser. I had just been saying to the Mrs that I'd probably never pull Waldo etc etc.... :D
The...
Just got back from the Disney Store myself and here's my haul:
I managed to pull a Waldo!
I think I'm going back tomorrow...I want Dr Teeth and the Mayhem! :D
