    eFX's Rizzo Thread

    Beaker is king, and them's the facts. I think you're speaking to your personal taste rather than actual sales. Beaker is big business! Incredibly, Miss Piggy's sales are sluggish when she's pegged next to the rest of the gang. These are facts that both Disney and Henson would tell you and it is...

    eFX's Rizzo Thread

    No news is the news. No factory wants to handle this piece at the cost and quality required by EFX and Disney. I think they want to avoid the weird sizing issue with Kermit and mouthplate issue with Animal of MR's factories that committed to making something they couldn't quite deliver. It would...

    Mickey talking to guests at Disneyland

    Fantastic! Now if they could make him really, really tiny. ;)

    Disney Takes Muppet Script Through Pixar

    I felt the same way. Oz was okay, but it felt unfinished. The director really wanted to make it a cinematic piece, but he couldn't get the budget required. That's evident in the CG elements, yet it should not have effected the quality of the story like it did. It was a bit of a mess that needed...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    I believe this is an fan's expert creation. Likely the same guy responsible for this.

    Muppets Animal keepsake ornament 2010

    Click the link on this page to see video footage of the Animal figural ornament. :halo: It appears that Disney has pinned down a pink PMS color for Animal's fur. We know that some of it is pink, but the overall look of Animal's wild plumage is much more red in hue. I have a feeling this will...

    The Kev and Muley Thread

    Hey, I'll have to watch Muley's "sticky fingers" if he ever comes into the toy shop, huh? :search:

    Disney Takes Muppet Script Through Pixar

    Eisner did revive Disney for the first half of his reign, but his reasoning became short-sighted. He killed off lucrative friendships and watered down brands for the sake of the bottom line. There's a time to cut your costs and there's a time to experiment with innovative thinking. He never...

    GONZO in Little Big Planet 2!

    Glad to do so. Evidently this has been on many fan wish lists for a while now and reportedly there will be more Muppets soon! My guess is that there will be a Muppet expansion pack later on that will likely feature all the characters, but not this exclusive version of Gonzo. They will likely...

    Cards Section

    I'm going to actually address the elephant in the room here instead of just serving him cheesy doodles. A- Could this be a case of legal issues of Disney, Henson and/or Sesame Workshop not wanting MC to send out fan-made ecards? B- Did Smig pull his beautiful Muppet artwork from MC in...

    Cards Section

    4 years! Well, it's been well over 4 years since the cards section went down and it's still not up. Is the cards section dead? :confused: Is there a straight answer on this? :sympathy:

    Disney Takes Muppet Script Through Pixar

    I must admit to being taken-back by hearing that the new Muppet film we thought was green lighted is now not officially green lighted...yet. But Disney's taking the script to Pixar tells us that they want to make something enduring and not disposable like the last couple of television movies...

    Rizzo's starting to look like the scraggly grey mice I find behind the refrigerator sometimes. Eeek!

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Makes me sad to see these in this condition. I guess there's just one prototype of each. :):shifty:

    GONZO in Little Big Planet 2!

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is an in-game costume, but a physical doll seems to come with the game this time out. LBP is all about customizing the in-game character, not toy collecting. Something had to have been confused in your communication with the representative because physical dress-up...

    GONZO in Little Big Planet 2!

    It's all digital puppetry! I think you misunderstood. This is not a costume for an actual doll you can hold in your hand. Sackboy is a video game character for the Playstation 3 video game "Little Big Planet". Here's a trailer of the new game (Gonzo costume not featured). In LBP the...

    GONZO in Little Big Planet 2!

    Gonzo the Great will be available to gamers who purchase a Collectors' Edition of Little Big Planet from a particular retailer (to be determined) this November! Here's the whole skinny and all the characters listed. :concern:

    Muppets Animal keepsake ornament 2010

    I am so glad they nailed the hair on that better than the Mega Beaker's Bart Simpson-style ridges. :eek: Ode to Joy singing...makes sense.

    Exactly. A hybrid of sorts that would yield the same visual outcome. :super:
