I agree that Piggy looked beautiful! I get your point about the replicas looking more accurate than altered, but what Palisades figures are you speaking of? Series 5 Gonzo was a perfect example of a mixture of styles gone right, while First Mate Piggy seemed scattered-looking in the final...

I'm expecting to need to get out some scissors and clip some excess hair, but I hope not. Does anyone know if he's still coming with his collar and chains? The MR site seems to have taken the items off its product description. I don't mind the chains, but he needs that classic-looking spiked...

Yet another desperate EW list to gain subscribers, but hey...Kermit! :mad: I have viewed Entertainment Weekly as pretty much a tabloid rag with off-the-mark reviews and editorials for several years now. It's almost the flip side of my taste. I expect them to implement the gross overuse of the...

I really see the creation of the Abby character as an attempt to gain some of the Dora market for Sesame. My niece watched more Dora than SS (unfortunately). For this reason, I could see Abby being a promotional balloon in this year's parade. Are you certain Elmo never had a balloon? I could...

Thanks. That's interesting news! It's cool they're getting a bit of a facelift. Hope the new sculpts are a good improvement. The impression I got from MR is that they are taking some creative license beyond the provided pattern and making what they see as a contemporary iconic view of the...

He does have some spiffy duds, but why does the puppet look wet in those photos? Or do I not wanna know? He he. :concern: :eek:

A new sculpt for the photopuppet or in general? I haven't been pleased with Waldorf's face since the 90s. These days he looks more alien than geezer. :sleep: :boo: Getting Miss Piggy's head mold from the current puppet building company has reportedly been an issue. Is that what's up? Or is...

It allows Big Bird more time on the show! Kidding!

Boober! (followed by Wembley due to the fact I know a wembler just like him)

I didn't care much either way for the morsels, but man...most people wanted those in season two's release! I can't imagine Disney omitting that next time out. I just hope they are displayed in a more tasteful way than in series one. They seemed to pop up and cover so much of the screen at the...

The answer (aside from that grossly overpriced black market auction) is that I don't believe there's a Gonzo "puppet" out there. There have been plush dolls of different sizes, styles, materials and assortments, but sadly no "puppets" aside from a tiny rubber Muppet Christmas Carol finger puppet...

I could see: Bert, Ernie, Grover, Cookie, Oscar, Count etc (the old classic ones) at regular size and Big Bird at two sizes. One could be shrunk to smaller proportions to sell on a wider market and a few exclusive full-sized ones made for the fantatic that has to have him to scale. Problem...

A lot of Piggy's look comes down to her hair. From Muppetfest we know that the ears are attached after the wig which poses the question of hair and Piggy wigs? Where else are you gonna hear the term Piggy wigs? He he. A straight wig will probably be cheaper to make and easier to care for...

This frogboy is watching... Believe it or not there are a few figures I never got. Some I helped design. So I am looking at your listing with big bulgy frogboy eyes...just waiting. May I ask why you are parting with these beautiful sculptures? There's quite the secondary market for these...

With all of the 3D Disney films being shown in Imax and regular theaters (Nightmare Before Christmas, Meet the Robinsons) I suppose the genre has lost much of its niche in California Adventure. :sympathy: But they don't have a Sweetums roaming the isles! ;)

It is funny which Palisades figure seemed to sell. A different undisclosed number of them were produced for every series so it's hard to decipher. I still find it strange how Beauregard warmed many pegs. I had nothing to do with him (aside providing a good photo) and found that figure to be...

I agree, however I do know some "social smokers" that light-up once or twice a week with a cocktail etc. Time will tell the effects. I hope they remain well, of course. I also see how needless cheap additives like corn syrup, beef tannin and concentrated sodium help to create addition to a...

There was a beautifully done comprehensive photo spread of every figure and lunchbox-packed exclusive that was published last year in Lee's Action Figure Magazine. I believe that's the title. It's tucked away somewhere around here. I kept looking for mistakes, but only found that they used the...

So I sifted through 3/4 of Alien Boot Camp and you're right, no Tinseltown. :sympathy: It doesn't make much sense to me because if it has wrapped - most of the episodes should already be edited. Does anyone know how many there will be? :confused:

Huh? I see the point, but there is a long history of this... I think that might be a US thing. Piggy does tend to irritate the modern American audience more than she used to. I don't know why that is, but have noticed that in recent years. :mad: But all this doomsday about the Pig? I don't...
