BTW: I just got Baby Natascha in the mail!! COOL!! I was feeling so down and out and then this new Mystery Mini Muppet came in today! I've showed her off to my co-workers, and made them laugh holding her like a real baby in my arms, and she's only 4" long
Not long...
Thanks for pointing that out about those games there. Hey, can you link the Pigs in Space link over at the Pigs In Space and Beyond thread? It's in Classic Muppets.
Hmm. I suppose, then, that maybe Jim had it in mind long ago that Gonzo would be an alien. Could be one of those industry...
I agree, some 10" Gorgs with PVC Fraggles that fit in their hands would be great:
Pa Gorg Red, Boober
Ma Gorg Gobo, Uncle Matt
Jr Gorg Wembley, Mokey
Isn't speculation fun?
Besides the main Fraggle Five and Uncle Matt, Storyteller Fraggle, Oldest Fraggle in the World, and Cantus...
The Father from the Anastasia movie was made into a 12" doll, and I've considered trying to find one of those and customize it into a Jim Henson. I've also been looking for a 12" Jesus doll, too.
I am not against at all that Miss Piggy would play the role of Dorothy, and as a matter of fact I would PREFER it at this point! They can get someone else to play the Wicked Witch (I could see it as Brooke Shields' Muppety comeback since she's too old to play Dorothy). It was mentioned earlier...
VMX=It's A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie (it's our abbreviation for it)
I have autographs of Ray Bolger, Berth Lahr, Jack Haley, and several of the Munchkins. However, it is the books I will always love first and foremost!!
Thing is, to rebuild those Muppets would be too expensive anymore. Thog, for example, died at the end of TMS (probably before it), and it was just too expensive to rebuild him. Same goes for a LOT of the other Muppets, too. Cost. We just won't ever see those again.
Both Brooke Shields and Sandra Bullock are too old for Dorothy roles anymore, or at least can't pull of acting as a young person. For more discussion on this, go check out this thread here:

I want to keep this thread dedicated to Gonzo.
It was a play on vowels and had Forgetful Jones, not Grover, and was being directed by Kermit. Kermit kept getting frustrated because Forgetful Jones would forget which vowel to use to start the song, singing:
AAAAAAAAklahoma
IIIIIIIIIKlahoma
EEEEEEKlahoma
UUUUUUKlahoma
Oh, MAN! I wish I was rich and had the dough for those!!
Hey, if anybody else reads this and gets a chance, can someone get me turn around screen captures of Sherlock Hemlock and Guy Smiley?
