    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Oooh. So that does seem to be more than just products. We all really want to hear projects. So it seems that Marvel talk hasn't taken over the entire conference. I was afraid of a Muppet bump. :o

    I think we've made a little progress. That's what I'll bring from this. :coy:

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Beautiful. This gets my 100% seal of approval. :) I believe the armature will soften up after broken-in a little so nothing's really bothering me. I'd like to have had the blue bow tie, but that can easily be altered. Rizzo's perfection too. :shifty:

    Your Thoughts: Kermit and Miss Piggy on America's Got Talent

    I wonder if this latest push creates scheduling and budget conflicts? Maybe the freelance days of Muppeteering are over and they'll need to retain the services of Steve, Dave, Eric, Bill and the gang. Understudy fill-ins (no matter how well they're performed or dubbed) aren't sufficient for a...

    Woah! Good get! Thank frog for the Muppet Mindset. :)

    They did? Where's that mentioned? The MM is a truly great start for a blog and it deserves all the support it can get!

    Howard Stern — Muppeteer?

    From what we know of how Jim dealt with things (both in writing and in person) he was not a confrontational person. In fact there are many reports that he was that way to a fault. This letter could have been misinterpreted, sent by someone else on staff or just plain invented! Heck, if Howard...

    Your Thoughts: Kermit and Miss Piggy on America's Got Talent

    Quality is the most important thing and that was missing. I think the chickens and Miss Piggy's performance really saved the piece. Also, has anyone mentioned there was absolutely no chemistry between Kermit and Piggy? They seemed both spatially and emotionally distant. There's a camaraderie...

    Thanks for keeping us up to date with everything Muppet! Yours is the first site I look at for Muppet news. :)

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    The Disney brand has some rabid collectors. I think a little of that could rub off on the Muppets too if done right.

    IDEA- Great Muppet Road Trip TV Special

    It's basically brining Muppets.com into primetime in snippets with stars and songs. And when the star is singing his or her own song with Kermit or Fozzie it's simple to secure the rights. The Muppets have a place at the big table, but they keep getting wedged into awkward fits. It was...

    Your Thoughts: Kermit and Miss Piggy on America's Got Talent

    Honestly, modern Muppet projects get caught up with gimmicks and heavy-handed themes. Why not just shoot a special called, "The Great Muppet Road Trip" where the characters pile on a bus to go through iconic spots of the country and perform with top stars? That's what they're good at. It...

    IDEA- Great Muppet Road Trip TV Special

    I posted about this in another thread, but I think this deserves serious thought. Many specials have been marred by budget or story not meeting quality expectations of a particular contrivance. :shifty: Well, why not let the Muppets go on a road trip and perform with stars they meet along the...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    The marketing strategy for Palisades' Muppet figures and MR's Muppet posers was really heavy in ToyFare mags, but fans of Muppet figures and posers aren't necessarily regular readers of those usual collector trades. It is my belief that Disney could help remedy this in many ways by including...

    That's the true litmus test of balance at Muppet Central and if someone wanted to write such a story I'd support them. In fact, part of me would write one if I had the time and love of writing that others do. I'm sure some members would make a case that sort of inclusion would be...

    See?

    An honest question This is an honest question. If Muppet Central can have fan fics where characters can profess their Christian conversion in detail, are we also able to write a fan fic about Scooter or some other character coming out to the Muppet gang? Of course, I mean in such a way that a...

    I support fresh starts and mutual forgiveness. There are certain things that push my buttons. It’s happened a lot lately. :halo: I will once again go about my forum posting in hopes that the usual problems won't be an issue anymore. I also hope that premature thread closures and micromanaged...

    See?

    Hiya Kev! I agree with you for the most part. There have been a few strange incidents of arbitrary edits in the form of thread titles and even spelling corrections that also go a little far. You always employ the soft-touch. Here as well!

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    No problem. I'm working in a collectible toy shop as I'm typing this. I have first hand knowledge that Star Trek and Star Wars fans are far different than Muppet fans. Sci-fi fans are more willing to spend top dollar on something that a Muppet fan typically wouldn't. There are so many crummy yet...
