To me, the bit seemed a little flat. Nothing all that special. I expected it to be more of a recreation of the original, but in live action. Putting them in a classroom setting was odd. Needed less clips if the cartoon and mire muppet recreations if it, but based on the rest if the special...

Super7 figures are hit or miss, but then tend to do non-human figures well. Their Ren and Stimpy line of Ultimates looks just like the old Palisades stuff. If the Sesame Street line is an "Ultimates!" line, then they may scale with Palisades stuff as well and may match up with the same paint...

Based on the "Pass It On" segment, it would seem Gobo is a little bigger than Kermit. Of course, Muppet heights are always cheated. If you consider that Gobo's eyes rest on top of his head, while Kermit's sit on the side, and Gobo has tall hair, the scale seems good enough to me. Certainly...

It's hard to tell exactly what the scale will be, actually. Supposedly, the Fraggles will be 5 inches tall. If the style guide is to be believed, Gobo is 22 inches tall. This seems to align with the height listed for Gobo in the museum of the moving image. If the Gobo figure is 5 inches tall...

The line looks decent, but I do wish they had handled the Doozer's differently. They said they made the Doozers 3 inches tall so they were still figures on their own and shorter than the Fraggles, even though they are a cheated scale. Personally, I would have loved to see 6 inch Doozers...

If you want to wait it out, Super7 figures can go on sale from various comic shops or Amazon. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle figures have almost all gone down in price. Shredder is only $25 on Amazon. However, it takes a while and if too many people wait for sales, I doubt the line will...

I doubt Super7 will be working with DST in any way. My hope is the Sesame Street line is for Ultimates and not reaction. If it's an Ultimates line, there is a possibility that they will be palisades level figures (look at Super7's Ren and Stimpy line to see how close they are). If they are...

Yeah, the box shows a poster, a stand for the poster, a light, and a phonograph. All are re-use other than the phonograph so they aren't a huge lost, but the phonograph would have been a nice addition to my Palisades/DST hybrid display. I have a feeling that the box was designed a long time...

The box itself has 4 additional accessories shown that are not in the box.

Seems interest is lacking in this line, and it's been a VERY long time since we first saw them solicited, but Sam and Rizzo are finally showing up in stock at online retailers and are shipping. Mine will be here tomorrow. Some things to note from pictures online: Almost all accessories are...

She isn't funny. Her late night show was atrocious.

I believe Muppets Now was never meant to be a 30 minute show to begin with. It was originally meant to just be the segments individually, posted as if it were a YouTube Channel. They got cobbled together into 30 minute episodes with little to nothing connecting them. Hopefully this new show...

As soon as I saw Lilly Singh was involved, I lost all hope this might be good. I thought we had learned from "The Muppet" in 2015 that The Muppets need to be an ensemble cast. Doing a show that centers around the Electric Mayhem sounds like an interesting special or movie idea, but an entire...

I wouldn't say they are low quality. They are designed to be retro style figures. They are meant to give a sense of nostalgia. They aren't made for me though. I've never been into that retro style.

This doesn't mean that DST no longer has the license. Super7 does Reaction figures for Power Rangers, TMNT, and other licenses that other companies produce. DST makes 7 inch scale, highly articulated ad detailed figures. Reaction figures are 5 points of basic blocky articulation. Heck, Teenage...

This is a straight up remake. It doesn't share continuity with the original series directly, but it will have similar lore and stories and set up. This Gobo never ventured into outer space to receive postcards from Uncle Matt before. Unlike most remakes, the look of the show is mostly intact...

So... in watching the first episode.... this show isn't great, though for kids I am sure it is pretty good. (long post ahead) As an adult, if I had never seen Fraggle Rock as a kid, I wouldn't think this was a show that adults and kids can appreciate alike. There are odd jokes, odd pacing, and...

There is a real risk of heart inflammation with the two vaccines that use mRNA resequencing. Those doctors are likely weighing the risk of heart inflammation vs. the risk of having severe complications from COVID. Since the mortality rate of COVID is actually around 1.3% in the US, with a...

Kevin Clash did work on Happy Time Murders and Dark Crystal. No work with Sesame Workshop. He moved away from The Muppets around the time of the Disney sale, before any controversy hit.
