    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Thanks for all the information. Maybe my comment has gotten lost in the mix, but I'd really like to know from someone in the know: Comic Con Kermit Display = MR Kermit placeholder (10% smaller than accurate) + New Replica Reporter Kermit Outfit (tailored to fit authentic size). This will...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Rizzo 100% Piggy good beginning Kermit's the only critique I have and I'm sure the slightly larger official EFX poser will have a tighter fit into the shirt and coat than here. The fit really isn't snug with with this poser or the pose. And we can probably purchase a blue bow tie for him if...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Thanks WOE! So it is the case of the stand-in MR Kermit being a tad too small for the clothes rather than the other way around? Also, is there any way for fans to request the Great Muppet Caper look for him instead of the red neck tie? :)

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    That is Rizzo. He looks exactly like the source material that I've seen. (Honestly, he might even look a little better.) Exactly. He's a funky looking little dude and they captured that. I'm gonna have to pull a bank job now. :shifty: If Pepe is anywhere near this quality he will do very well...

    Has Big Bird lost his appeal?

    Big Bird merchandise doesn't resemble the character as much as the others. He's harder to capture. That could be why. :wisdom:

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    I was thinking about Little Muppet Monsters' cancellation by Jim as pertains to MFS. If LMM, a show I actually liked, didn't meet his standards, then MFS wouldn't likely have either. The Muppets are still vital as seen on Muppet.com. Once that can be harnessed into a full-length film Disney and...

    Muppets 2010 Calendar Cover Art

    The second link. It's not a perfect poser picture, but it is attractive and handsomely done. It seems just like a planner or something. I don't usually buy them, but I'm going to get this one. :attitude:

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    Jim had plans for the Muppets. He wanted them to have a future - especially with Disney. The only point of conflict was Eisner and he's gone now. Jim really seemed to want the characters active even after him. I can't speak for what Jim Henson wanted, but the model of what came under him is...

    Muppets 2010 Calendar Cover Art

    The diary looks promising. That's a must-get. The calendar cover is dreadful, but I won't judge the calendar by the cover. :o I just don't see why the Muppets have to try to be hip with the whole shades and caps thing. I think that look dates them. Still, I will be getting that one too. I've...

    Monskey Target Design Contest!

    As you guys know, I recently created the new Monskey site along with Sean. Now there's a Monskey Design Contest. Go to www.monskey.us and click the contest link for details. MC has so many creative people so I felt like mentioning this. The contest has nothing to do with me. It just seems like fun!

    Comic-Con Dark Crystal Announcement

    If this news is about another poorly drawn and written Manga I'm going to be upset. There's a difference between being a Dark Crystal fan and liking that lack-luster book. I want movie news! :scary:

    New Disney Muppets Figures Revealed

    It might not be a Muppet item yet, but it will be when they get their own planned series one of multiple ones to come next year. :)

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    I had weird feelings about Disney ownership even in 1990, but I understand the reasoning. Since the official sale a few years ago Disney kind of expected the Muppets to take care of themselves without much support or direction, then they tinkered too much with the formula, then they made plans...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    The Wiki has some prototypes. Miss Piggy's eyes are placed terribly, but the rest seem like a good start.

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    My first thought on it was the Silence of the Lambs side, but I like the Kermit. He's one of the Holy Grail figures in their new Vinylmation series. :)

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    Oooh. Well, this one you might not like, but it does show the Disney love for the Muppets. They're making Munny-like urban vinyl sculpts, but with Mickey as a base design. They then throw on different skinned-paint-jobs. Kermit's was so popular that they are coming out with a few entire Muppet...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    It's the beginning of one - comic books, television specials (placed less than a year apart), puppet products, posers, figures, an updated web pressence, a greater theme park presence and those are the things already here now. Have you not seen any of this or are discounting it all because...
