Crossroads on the shores of destiny? Have you been reading romance novels again? LOL!:D

Haven't heard anything other than the theme song (which was okay) but I do like the non-singing portions that I have seen. And the Hoobs site is spectacular. Beautiful use of Flash. On another note - love the update to your avatar, Scott. Always good stuff.

I received my Toy Fare Fozzie on the 27th. The day after my post on the subject. I have heard horror stories about Toy Fare, but it came in excellent condition. I'm very pleased. I count the extra days as being the result of the Christmas congestion.

Super Scooter The Muppet Theater set has been pushed back for at least a year so it's a bit early to go too far into details. However, Ken has reported it will have movable fabric curtains, a balcony and each playset will be able to on the stage (one at a time, of course). I don't think there...

It is really helpful to me to see what everyone likes and why. That was part of the reason for the menu vote. In the new year I hope to see more "Ode To" type contests and other outlets/opportunities for members to contribute to the site. It's not all about graphics and menus. (That's just the...

I could do with some more merchandise too, but we do have the major releases neatly displayed on the main page - without having to wade and scroll through content. We obviously aren't going to catch everything that gets released, but we can certainly stand to add to it. That's something we...

I haven't heard of that issue. Ken (who is on his honeymoon) would tell you to go back to the store where you bought it (or send it back if you purchased it online) and ask for an exchange/refund. Sorry to hear about your Floyd problems. Mine rocks. He is an excellent figure.

We are working on an entirely different menu concept for this page. Sketches were made last summer and it's just taking some time to get it up. We want to get this area just right because it will be the most visible. The current menu is a temporary band-aid solution to give Muppet Central a...

Muppet Central is currently promoting the busts, figures, Macy's tie-in, Christmas special, Muppet Show and Emmet Otter DVDs on our main page. And this is all positioned above the scroll. We have also had several promotional give-aways. All items are listed in the collectibles section as well as...

anathema I enjoyed reading your link. Very descriptive. I could have used a little of that help in my MC article last fall. It was intended to be simple, but I really enjoy how this issue has been thoroughly explored.

Not promoting their products in their talk show appearances. There are busts, figures, new DVD releases and a CD, but none of it was mentioned on the Craig Kilborn show. Instead Kermit had a message that "porn is fine." I don't object to him saying that as much as not hooking people into the...

See, we need to watch and wait. The Muppets have been bounced around so much with proposed deals for over a decade so I won't believe anything until it's in ink, but I still think - even if it's 20 years from now - that Disney will own the Muppets. It's just a matter of time in my eyes. Not that...

I don't think Palisades has been to see the puppets yet. Maybe with Bunsen. I'll have to check on that. I know Sideshow has had much more access to them. There is definitely a learning curve. I just expected more from Sideshow because they had more opportunity and fewer limitations (joints...

Yup. He's wonderful. Probably the best of the series. Kermit is worth getting too. He's the main frog and its a good likeness. Just wish it were better. I'm toughest on his likeness. Gonzo looks like he'll be good too. Janice would be interesting to have and I am looking forward to seeing...

Congradulations Ken! I hope everything goes smoothly on this special day. And we understand if you are absent from the board for several days. ;)

Yeah. I can see that. And he does Beaker too, so it's a natural assuption, but with so many issues over colors of paint - think about the whole voice issues and debates over money etc. I know people like that the Simpsons have voice chips, but to tell you the truth, I'm not impressed with any of...

Oops. Sorry Zach. Didn't go back and check who wrote that. (Smacks self) Yeah, I have to remember to add a few frames to the head of these menus. The beginning is often cut short when placed on the page. but plays normally when it stands alone. I have another question. How about loading time...

Yes, but it is very expensive and cost prohibative for a smaller toy company to use them. The Macy's Kermits are more of a guaranteed sell and actually priced quite high - 35 bucks with a purchase! (Thinks we've been through this several times) sigh. :rolleyes: Oh, well. Here we go again...

Cory Did you read my post or are you on some sort of rant? I know that Harry and LOTR have done well. The idea was that fantasy films are a gamble. Even the high profile ones we remember today: Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, Willow, Legend and countless others didn't perform well at the box...

OMG! We agree on something! LOL! You know, I have learned to like it over the years, but I hated it when it came out in theaters and I still think it's the weakest of the series.
