    Muppet Peter Pan

    They did that in the first couple seasons of the Muppet Show too. That sort of thing could be fun. :concern:

    New Disney Muppets Figures Revealed

    These are pretty hot and have their market! Some fans will like them, others will pass. I know a little more about this style lately after working with the Monskey people and creating the new www.monskey.us site. A lot of people are doing this now and Disney has finally stepped up to the...

    Muppet Peter Pan

    :super: I agree. It was Amy's statement that, "...these comics are not 'for the fans'. They are for children..." that had me perplexed. I'm glad she took the time to clarify things and the Pixar-ism model is the perfect example. Ultimately it's about making a good comic and that seems to be what...

    Pepe Plushes?

    Hey! Igel never revealed their Pepe design, but Nanco did create several sizes. You'd have to poke around Ebay from time to time. Here's a photo someone posted around the forum a while back. The smaller the Pepe the better the likeness. I wasn't wild about these but if they'd been commercially...

    Meet My Monskey!

    ...and very soon Monskey.us will be carrying another popular little product line. Cutting the gallery for it next week. I'll keep you updated. ;) So far the new Monskey.us is doing great. They even placed it over Monskey.com! I'm very happy that my client is pleased. We went from a sub-site...

    Help with plastic flocked mini muppets?

    Woah, those are new to me. They have to be something released overseas because I would have known about them. For whatever help that gives you... :cool:

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    I was thinking the same thing. I'd buy another Gonzo somewhere down the line if he were 80s Reporter Gonzo. Just give us the Bear and the Pig first. Here's a question for EFX is they're listening. What are the chances for a Dr. Teeth or Scooter down the line?

    Muppet Peter Pan

    Thank you. It's what I've been thinking. I can't wait for Muppet Peter Pan. It's so wonderful when a good artist and writer get together in just the right project. By the way, what is your favorite (non-Muppet) comic you've written?

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Kermit always sells. The other Muppet characters sell best when a Kermit is available next to them. Kermit is always marketing gold...er green for the Muppets. Personally, if I held a Muppet license for anything, I'd make sure a Kermit was regularly available. A new Kermit poser is crucial to a...

    Fozzie Illustration

    I was thinking that. You do seem to be very far along. How much time would you say the average character takes you to create? It must many hours! I just can't imagine undertaking this project. How much have you learned while painting these characters?

    Fozzie Illustration

    His fur is amazing! I'm loving Sweetums and Floyd. With the ones we've seen and the ones we haven't, how far through are you with the character inclusions at this point? Or is that hard to determine? I'm just so excited about this Muppet mural.

    MC Great Debate thread

    Aquaman has the better power because most of the world is filled with water and with global warming even more of it will be in the future. Roseanne was the better show because of all the writer firings and hirings. The show was constantly fresh and changing while still true to its roots -...

    Muppet Peter Pan

    You're right. It's the Boom Kids branding. I'm just glad that not only haven't forsaken the fans, they've found the root of what makes the Muppets work, made it palatable for everyone and placed it in a format that suits kids. I merely object to thinking of these comics as for kids or kids...

    Muppet Peter Pan

    I can tell you personally that in the toy shop where I work part time, American kids just don't know what the Muppet Show brand is that much. It's the adults that buy the figures. However, Europeans of all ages still know the Muppets very well! I guess we have a five minute attention span in...

    Meet My Monskey!

    I just completed work on a website re-haul for Monskey.us. Come check it out! Tell me what you think. This is the result of many long hours of work. Just what is a Monskey? Well, these little suckers are vinyl toys (with linking chains) in the same tradition of Munnys, Mighty Muggs and...

    The Brand New Ask Jim Lewis Thread

    Hiya again, Jim! It's that precocious fan again with the unanswerable questions. Okay, here’s an easier one. If you were a sandwich, what fixin’s would you have? Here’s a little tougher one now. It has been said that the Halloween special is underway. Are they shooting now? The last special...

    Muppet Peter Pan

    The Muppets have a track record of being all-inclusive and Disney seems to understand that as of late. Their past performance of target marketing confusion is partly responsible for the Muppets need for a comeback. It was Sony's fault too before them. Maybe there's a contrary internal...

    Think twice before buying from puppet-planet.com

    This could be a case of the Grim Reaper finding his way to her business and she's just allowing everything to go to the claims departments. That seems to be a trend, but not one that I endorse. Still, I would never in good conscience leave someone hanging like this. Maybe she's trapped under...

    Manhole Explosions in San Francisco!

    Here's the story, but it doesn't show all of the smoke. Here is what it looked like last month down the street from me. I will never walk on another manhole cover again! :eek: Could be the rats. City rats are the size of small children here! I've seen 'em! No matter how big they are they can...

    Unofficial Script Review of the New Muppet Movie

    I've been concerned about him too. Maybe he's on a summer break. I miss his Muppet scoops.
