Okay Cory, I gotta say this: it's great that you have figures you passionately want to get made, we all do. But just say the figs you want, don't dump on the others. Personally I'd like both.

Maybe I'm just not familiar enough with PVC minis, but these looked kinda strange to me. Some of them kind of look like they're made of play-doh or modeling clay (Gonzo, Snowths, Mahna Mahna) although the likenesses are good. Thog's coloring looks a little dark- could that just be the picture...
Well, they all sing "I must be a h/e/l/l of a man". This includes Link, Fozzie, Gonzo, Zoot, Beauregard, Scooter, Rowlf, Lew Zealand, Annie Sue, Camilla, and I think a couple of rats. The one you can hear best is Fozzie, actually.

Muppet Treasures. Ever since Muppet Treasure Island came out I think most video stores unloaded this one. The video stores near me unloaded the whole series.

CATGUT:
#3 Joel Grey: part of the band in "Wilkommen"
#6 Jim Nabors: appears in closing #, "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" (I think T.R. might be in this one too, not sure)
T.R. ROOSTER:
#28 Rich Little: appears in audience (all chickens) after Gonzo's dancing chicken act (this shot is...
Could someone remind me, what's the link for the pics from UK Toy Fair? It was in one of the threads here but I can't find it. Thanks.

Series 7:
Nurse Piggy (w/stretcher, Foo-Foo)
Nurse Janice (w/collapsible gurney or wheelchair- this suggestion couldn't be topped)
Johnny Fiamma (w/records- of himself?- sheet music, old style microphone- I know, I'm stealing all the good ones from everybody else; let's just say I'm agreeing)...
Calm down, Cory! No need to rail against Suggs and Pops. Even if they wouldn't be interesting sculpts, they'd still be fun to play with, IMO (and I'm not alone on this). Plus with Suggs we'd get Muppaphones!

Yes, that was me. I have been known to be persistent. It's that quality, in fact, that got me my latest romantic rejection, but I don't wanna talk about it:(
Suffice it to say, I was pushing for a Thog figure and I'd still love for Palisades to make one. Same with Mahna Mahna and the...
What sort of accessories would you give Lips besides the trumpet? His character was never developed/established. I asked Henson.com for a bio of Lips but they said negatory, or at least that Steve Whitmire never kept any notes about the character (they seemed to get the answer to that question...
How about as part of PVC set, maybe? Perhaps a Season One PVC set, or maybe sprinkle first season characters throughout the PVCs much like is being done with the big monsters? Just a thought.

Anybody else have any comments? Favorite parts? Suggestions for improvement?
I thought this one was kind of dry, dull, and predictable compared to some of my other ones. But then again, it matches the style in which I set it:D

Also popped up in Muppet Labs on the Andy Williams ep., and in the closing number, "Hey Big Spender" on the Dyan Cannon ep (probably first appearance). Don't think the dog has a name, it's just a Muppet dog. Also it wasn't Tommie's avatar (I don't know what his was, other than a dog; looked...
I have a question:
Whatever happened to the plans for a Sweetums figure? What's his projected time frame if he hasn't been scrapped altogether?
