I guess I'm pretty risque because I have never found the words da*n, h*ll, sucks or jacka** to be swearing unless they are pointed at a person or in the spirit of namecalling. I don't think the Muppets ever used them that way. (i.e. d*** you, go to h***, you s*** or you are a j******. We do...

What disturbs me is that this is a guy who refuses to grow up. He admitedly wants to be stuck at the age of "four" but wants to raise kids. How can someone on that level raise children? Did you see him feed his baby? Just freaky stuff. If it were just him and no kids were involved, I don't think...

Wasn't that Richard Simmons? Or is that an even worse nightmare? I think he did play that part at one time.

Nate, sometimes you frighten me. :eek:

The fact is, these aren't the average cheaply made pvc figures. They are highly detailed, finely painted and texutred pieces. Yeah, they are hella expensive compared to some mass produced Scooby Doo sludge, but these are really something special. I expect for them to be popular and that the...

Playdough? What? They are much higher quality than the average pvc. :eek:

Everything that is scheduled so far is listed here: http://www.muppetcentral.com/news/2003/tms_figures.shtml The Pigs in Space set should come out this year, but there has been no confirmed date. Palisades has the license through 2005 (that means 14 possible waves and we're only on 3). But it...

LOL! I overlook Cyndi's brief period when she was around wrestlers. I never understood that. BTW, she received a mention from Kelly Osborne on their show. She commented how beautiful and cool she still is. I don't know if that's a good thing. Back to puppets. I really hated HR Puffinstuff. I...

I like Star Wars more. I have to admit that the first few Star Trek films are really good and the original series dealt with some interesting subject matter, but they lost me somewhere mid-generation. All the new ST versions just became ridiculous in my eyes - spinnoffs of spinnoffs of...

I didn't really like non-Henson puppets growing up. To be honest, I still don't like many puppet shows now. Between the Lions is a very interesting modern show, but we're talking 80s here. Pee Wee's Playhouse had some interesting puppets of all sorts. Very stylish, but non the best puppetry...

I think they all look fantastic. It's hard to really see Sam's whole body so I'll have to reserve any critique of that. Remember that they always look better than in the pictures. I think Sam's head is spot-on. Gonzo is amazing. Nobody's mentioned the coloring. This could possibly be the...

MuppetVision The figure lineup can be seen at Muppet Central: http://www.muppetcentral.com/news/2003/tms_figures.shtml

The US market is rather fickle. It has a little to do with America's changing insatiable tastes, but it has more to do with a sort of merchant mafia IMHO. We are in this climate that forces crud down our throats whether we like it or not. It isn't that we don't appreciate variety; we simply...

Interesting closing feature. Wouldn't want it that small. It should fit at least a couple of the playsets. But I getcha!

I half agree with you here. I think the busts should be a lot cheaper, but series one is worth having. Just maybe not at that price. They really should be in the $30-40 range, not 50-65. People were complaining that $7 was too much for a fully articulated action figure. Actually, the size of...

I don't know of any. I tend to focus on The Muppet Show.

It appears that you are saving as JPG files. That sort of compression alters your file. Photoshop is an expenisve program, but worth the money. If you can't get it, I'd say **save all of your original files as bitmaps (bmp). They are larger files, but maintain the original pixels. But when...

Gonzo is beautiful, isn't he? Great likenesses all the way through. A good mixture of classic and contemporary styles.

I'm not sure if that's the case anymore. The character sculpts just need to exist in order for them to be made. That's why I think there's been a pattern so far.
