Yeah that's it everybody, stop what you are doing. 5pm on Wednesday - it doesn't matter if you are getting engaged, married, attending a funeral, organising a barn dance. Head on over to Wizard World where you'll be able to buy a $20 action figure in a $6 lunchbox for only *fanfare* $60+ ...

Oi, no multiple spamming or i'll give you a taste of my limited edition metal lunchbox ! :rolleyes:

I think you guys could be way off on this. You are forgetting the S8/9 playset. Whichever it is, the figure/s released alongside it would be designated TMS too. I also think if we see another Piggy at this point, it won't be Benjamina - I think the MTI figure maybe Rizzo(maybe with some kind...

Yay - 30 Yrs special. Never thought we'd be getting that on DVD. Fab !

I would guess so - TRU, Walmart, Target etc etc. I think this line will be much easier on the collectors in that sense. Just my hunch though going on their past history, I guess it could change if they wanted.

No they didn't - you are wrong there my friend. Kermit is still the biggest Palisades seller. They made loads more Kermit and Piggy's than the other figures, that's why there were more left on the shelves.

Nice suggestion, but maybe that's better left for Fun4All's new website once it's launched if they want to do that kinda thing. As for Fun4All convention exclusives and collectors clubs - as far as I know their company does not attend the conventions - only trade shows. They are a very...

Ah, a man after my own heart. Yeah when you eventually have to do Elmo make him come with a working TNT accessory so we can all blow him up !

After all my recent Palisades admiration i'd say I think that GOSA picture looks less than impressive. It's just MTI Sam with dull paint and sea-weed on his head The glow in the dark looked better - what's the point in this ?

Yeah they used lots of our ideas (that Sweetums hugging must have been purely coincidental of course - lol) and made numourous posts to the forum anonymously along the lines of "I am really looking forward to Muppetfest. I must rush and get my $300 gold ticket immediately. I bet they are...

I've been in contact with CTHE for a while now. I was sent the latest list, it's the same one they send to their retailers to update their schedules. Seems wierd that VBOTMS3 is listed but not FR. Maybe a delay ?

Slight problem - I saw a release list to retailers today from CTHE, and 'Very Best Of The Muppet Show Vol 3' is on it for 26/1 but 'Fraggle Rock' is not listed !

Welcome back Cory, this place needed shaking up a little - you were missed.

Wasn't me ! I see the wave as very strong in a certain way - they are all going to be very visually appealing characters this wave, and Scooters theme will increase his strength as a character to sit alongside Sam, the accessories will give him masses of cross over appeal. Yes, there do seem...

I LOVE this lineup - strongest for me personally ever, and overall i feel similar to S5 strength but with funky characters. I've campaigned for Dr Phil for ages, the MTM Scooter will look fabulous, and Sam is a favorite all have waited for. Mahna Mahna doesn't excite me but is an excellent...

I agree, we are being advertised to more than interacted with. That has always been my biggest fear of licensee's and retailers using the forum for input and exposure. That said, i appreciate Fun-4-All giving us the scoop here and letting us see the pictures. Hopefully some better system of...

Wow - I never knew it was ALF's birthday. SO COOL they found out that and gave ALF a mention. Thanks so much !

Actually Ken did more or less exactly the same thing with S1 and had it mostly all pre-planned and in some early stage of production. We had more influence on the S2 and S3 sculpts here. Also, with these priced and marketed right, I wouldn't say the collectors base is larger than the kiddie...

I have mixed feelings on all this. I agree with you that comparing these with the Palisades stuff is like comparing chalk with cheese, but then again with the Sesame license I don’t think it would have been a good idea if they had been done the ‘Palisades Way’. The Muppets figures are much...

I think they made the right decision - and not just because of his profile. I've seen his shows (purely for Muppetty research purposes of course, had nothing to do with the girls ... much) and the guy just blatently cannot present or act. Even a short cameo would have really cheapend the movie...
