According to their plans, Henson should be out in Las Vegas right now running a booth at the annual Licensing Expo. Today's the first day. If you want them to know what kind of merchandise you're interested in, it's probably not too late. Your best bet would likely be to reply to this Tweet...

Wrong folder for this discussion.

Very sorry to hear this news. Besides the simple charm of doing that famous falsetto so well, I think Wayne also gave Mickey’s vocal quality more underpinning and dexterity than perhaps either man before him: Jimmy MacDonald and Walt himself. He will be truly missed.

No, they don’t need to be following you. If you reply to the Tweet I linked above, they should receive your message privately. There’s no guarantee they’ll respond, of course, but you can be sure they’ll read it.

Then send Henson a Tweet and tell them. Now is the time they're looking at what to put out there, and they're asking us what we'd like to see: http://twitter.com/hensoncompany/status/1768268480

There is definitely a market, niche at least, for classic series merchandise other than just DVDs. I hope Henson is aware of that and takes advantage of new methods for getting stuff out there. That's the really big key. What keeps most items from making it to the shelf are costs due to...

Most of the UK shows are unfortunately lost at the moment, so it may be difficult to locate that segment’s particular episode. However, the segment itself is included as a bonus feature on the third season DVD boxset (US), hidden as an “Easter egg.” You may want to check that out if you have a...

Kids are being exposed to it today through the DVDs, of course. And they’ll get to see even more when the Doozer show airs. A re-broadcast would be welcome, but the original series is really more accessible now than it’s ever been.

I don’t know if it’s gone for good or not, but I wouldn’t rule it out. The show is now the top priority among Henson’s classic brands, with the movie still to come, and they’re actively looking for a publisher. I think awareness and distribution are both key. It would help if the show was on...

With the objectives they listed, I hope Henson can figure out what they want to do with Fraggle besides the film. Not only producing the figures (with or without Mindstyle) but also producing other material relating to the original series. They’d certainly have publicity opportunities once the...

I'm a bit skeptical too, since home video wasn't mentioned in the press release as something Henson is pursuing. All the more reason to Tweet them and tell them you want it.

If there's merchandise you're interested in having, be it Fraggle Rock, Labyrinth, Dark Crystal or Farscape, send Henson a Tweet. It's a really great way to speak to them directly and they encourage comments from fans regarding what they'd like to see. It may be especially appropriate now...

Henson is indeed looking for a big distributor for their properties, Fraggle being most prominent. http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?p=751302 If there's something you're interested in, such as Season 4, send them a Tweet. It's a really great way to speak to them directly and they...

Classic Legacy Properties from The Jim Henson Company Now Available for Merchandise Licensing Opportunities Recently expired licensing agreement with HIT Entertainment, Fraggle Rock and other properties to JHC control in time for Licensing Show 2009 HOLLYWOOD, CA (May 11, 2009)- The Jim...

HIT distributed Henson-owned content up until April, when their agreement expired. Muppets and Sesame are not included.

While still present on their corporate page, HIT Entertainment has removed Fraggle Rock from their press website, another confirmation that their work with the show and Henson is done. http://www.hitnewsonline.com

I think they wanted to return to the main conflict. Revealing that Cotterpin and Wrench disagreed was enough.

It's good you have that attitude. Plenty of people share your feelings, enough in this case to persuade Lionsgate to generate replacements. And other studios have done the same in similar situations. The bigger, more underlying problem is simply that proper disc storage is not an industry...

I just can't get over the disregard studios give to packaging. It seems they don't understand, care or appreciate the fragile nature of these optical discs. Design, layout and tangible bonuses are nice, but isn't the maintenance of the featured material most important?

Wow. Please be sure to let us know if and when you do actually get them.
