    What Miss Piggy should MR design?

    Backstory on the Bust My customized Piggy bust. Just a hair color tweak and she was pretty sweet. That, so far, is hands down the best Piggy product sculpt I have ever seen! Sideshow/Weta dropped the ball in the end. They weren't willing to debate the PMS color assignent with the Henson Company...

    In Development: Henson's Fraggle Rock Movie

    Thanks Greg for the word on that. It's precisely what I don't understand though. It's like how they kept dragging their feet with the Muppets before selling to Disney. It shouldn't be taking this long from their end. It was going this slowly well before the writers strike. Original reports were...

    What Miss Piggy should MR design?

    This is how Piggy product seems to be going. This is closer to how I'd like her face to look. I wouldn't mind something modern like this. But I much prefer this for my pig! :mad:

    Heath Ledger found dead

    Very, very sad. Ledger was a talented actor. The moment I saw him in the teen flick "10 Things I Hate About You" I knew he was destined for much, much better roles. His work deserves to be honored. In researching him on IMDB I did find the 28 year old and I share the same birthday of April 4th...

    In Development: Henson's Fraggle Rock Movie

    Oh, I'm not touching that. LOL! I can say that I actually watched two episodes of the original Honeymooners show last night on DVD. Oh, yeah and Roger Ebert hated "The Great Muppet Caper" but admits to enjoying that "Honeymooners" movie that came out a couple years ago. Man has he lost...

    What Miss Piggy should MR design?

    What is your dream Piggy for MR to design? This deserves its own thread. This is when the comments could be most productive since they haven't started on it yet. I'll be happy the more it looks like this. I know the ears will be more "rabbitty" like she's been for while. I like more of a...

    The closer she looks to this the more I will like it. :mad: I'm might just start a thread about this.

    Big Bird Replica Half-finished

    I can't imaging paying $2,000 for one that doesn't vacuum or do windows. :o

    Great Muppet Caper Poster

    I love that poster. The hand drawn quality makes me happy. I'm glad Indy 4 is continuing that tradition.

    Well the next week they could have Madeleine Albright. ;)

    Popularity of Fraggle Rock

    I know these days it seems like so much pop-culture is geared toward a younger audience, but there's actually little good, quality, non-snarky family entertainment out there. That is why projects like High School Musical and the recent Chipmunks movie have done well. Say what you will about the...

    Unstable Fables: 3 Pigs and a Baby

    I like this idea, however prefer puppetry from Henson. Maybe the advertising tags on this release will inspire new viewers to check out Henson's puppetry. I haven't felt the Henson Company has been playing to their strengths even pre-Muppet sale. There is a definite need for a guiding hand...

    Master Replicas Gonzo Photo Puppet

    Gonzo is supposed to be a fraction smaller than Kermit from what I've learned. The Kermit poser is a fraction smaller than the actual Kermit so I'd imagine Gonzo might com in a tad taller than Kermit here.

    Poll for MR's Next Muppet Replica

    In the Muppet Movie Sam's feet are blue. In Muppet Treasure Island they are clearly yellow and have been so every since. There's a history of confusion concerning the color but the licensing model sheets that Henson provided Palisades clearly noted yellow feet. This is how they want him and...

    Poll for MR's Next Muppet Replica

    Beaker has many Muppet fan fans, but he's a bigger icon with the non-Muppet fanatic crowd. :eek: The one problem I can see if Sam were ever made is the foot color. Many people do not like the modern yellow color that he is now branded with. :attitude: I like it though.

    My Thoughts: Disney's Muppets

    Hey, put Zack Efron on a Muppet Show and you're sure to get viewers. ;) That's something very doable by Disney. Not a High School Musical fan but I wouldn't mind. :D

    Your Animal Replica Pictures

    I'm thinking that Disney wants to brand the Muppets and their look in a consistent, easier to replicate way. The only character that seems to have a hard time is Piggy. It appears they're trying to find an appropriate formula for her since Oz. Her Muppets TV look makes her head too plump and her...

    Your Animal Replica Pictures

    Slight trimming of a few longer stray hairs that just didn't look right. Nothing major. You can see the stray hairs in the article pictures that aren't present in the latest collar photos I just took. Shedding a few of these scraggly hairs (even though he's supposed to have some) caused his head...
