You know what is absolutely HUGE right now? Remember Battle Beasts? http://www.virtualtoychest.com/battlebeasts/battlebeasts.html Well go to any toy store and you'll see Star Wars, Transformers, Marvel(Xmen, Spiderman, and all the Marvel properties), and now TMNT in almost exactly the...

I've noticed at least three K B toy stores in malls around me have a whole section of clearance Fraggle plushes of various sizes and other merchandise, Im guessing from the 2003 Sababa era. Suncoast and Hot Topic were the main retailers carrying that stuff, and now apparently K B Toys has...

They are usually hollow, heres an example of popular vinyl action figures: http://www.kidrobot.com/products.cfm?&dept=TOYS&typ=KIDROBOT I hope they are of the smaller size, low price variety. Then again, while every Muppet fan is obsessed with "Palisades" size, I will always champion the...

Vinyl figures: www.kidrobot.com I LOVE em myself, there's 3 stores in San Francisco dedicated to those kinds of toys, and several in LA Ive been too. But yeah, as DrTooth has pointed out, "designer toys" cost a lot more especially the smaller the quantity. The Kubrick Sesame and...

Well now that was pretty impressive! I absolutely *hated* the last "Muppets.com"...the only thing good about it was the cool flash site months prior to its launch. Thank GOODNESS that attrocious "Muppets" purple logo is gone, and my... how sweet it is to get a ton of new Muppet...

http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/The_Muppet_Show_Book THE best Muppet book...ever. I urge everyone to try and seek it out. I wish someone could scan it and put it online, or the publisher could reprint it. It's a simply amazing book and really was very inspiraitonal for me growing up in the 80's.

Absolutely stunning news, especially given how I yearned for such a book in the 80's. I remember in the mid to late 80's going to Waldenbooks and getting the Fraggle Rock children's books, and always wishing they had something like Muppets and Men. The Art of the Muppets, the Muppet Show...

You people are too funny "This is the worst news ever!" Did anyone *really* think this would go to theatres? Come on now. I am beyond excited...people dont know, but almost ten years ago right here on Muppet Central(late 1998) we were all abuzz that JHC was about to start work on a new...

I can't wait to see it!

I sent mine off 2 minutes before the 11:59 EST deadline *whew* I can't wait to see all of your guy's entries! I'm glad GelflingWaldo did this, as I needed an excuse to divert my art toward Muppety things.

Good. There was a time a couple years prior where JHC wasnt allowed to mention the Muppets on their site really, and definately not in theatre film festival retrospectives. It was always referencing Fraggle Rock, Sesame Street, and "Jim's Legacy" This was ALL because of 2004. FINALLY, JHC can...

How can one enjoy it if its ghastly to the eyes? Im very easy to please Muppet wise. I LOVE Bear in the Big Blue House, Mopatop, Sesame Street, you name it. But I also believe in quality, and to me I felt there was a strong poverty of imagination, care and uniqueness. Again, you look at...

Forgive my sarcastic tone, it's just bizarre JHC or Disney with Henson Alternative, Muppets, etc dont seem to know about the viral appeal of youtube and myspace video. This stuff would easily be front page of either sites if they put em on there as well

Well Fraggle Rock, Sesame Street, Bear in the Big Blue House, the Muppet Show and even I would say Jim Henson Alternative brand is all "Muppets".. I think in a legal way tho Fraggle Rock cant call themselves Muppets anymore, Bear and Muppet brand are "officially labelled Muppets", and Sesame...

Um, was there ANY reason for using a horribly cheap made cardboard set? Why couldn't this have at least taken place in, say a airport terminal or a snowed in mall or something more creative? This was absolutely ghastly to watch, as much as I love seeing the Muppets on new tv endeavors...I...

That's funny, because I could swear the Muppets have since 2000 been almost exclusively branded at the 20-40 year old crowd for nostalgic reasons.

I would call some of the rarely seen Land of Gorch Muppet skits pretty close to "going to far";) I absolutely loved the 80's Muppet period, it was a magical time and I liked everything that came out Muppet wise from then. Jim Henson Hour being my favorite, but as well Muppet Family Christmas...

Its amazing, there is a chokehold on children's entertaining solely focused on ADHD cheap throwaway animated shows(Cartoon Network, Nick, Disney tv) but the bulk seems to be the High School Musical/Hannah Montanna tween girl crowd. Yet, the very things I grew up with in the early to mid...

What, you mean millions of people didnt see From the Balcony, Del's Comedy Binge, or TBS.com presents Puppet Up online? :D

Well this brings up a very key question; at what point does one simply say "well, it was a good run, thank goodness we have such a rich half century of work to celebrate and look back on" versus "Isnt it about time those who bought the Muppets show some good faith and make an attempt to...
