I think I would rather wait until the end of May instead of paying £50+ tax and get him sooner.

Another great piece of work. The quality is amazing.

Nice work!

Gonzo is due "soon" again on TCZ website. lol. Don't you just love that they are so specific?

I am pretty sure that Piggy will be next in line after Fozzie and then Rizzo to follow her. I can't imagine Rizzo being any simpler than Piggy. Yeah, he may be a whole lot smaller but the detail in him is pretty fine. In the original price ideas, Rizzo was said to probably cost the same as...

That works out to around £170 in the UK which is roughly how much he costs to buy from a UK dealer! I think we are being conned. :concern:

How much did he cost altogether with the postage?

I hope it is that easy for me. Gonzo's eyes seem way off from some of the unfixed photos. :concern:

Thanks, I thought it would probably be a simple as that. We don't get Goo Gone in the UK tho so I will have to look out for something else if they don't come off too easily. :)

Ah, and Goo Gone is...? :p

Was the question about Jim and the Muppets?

It looks like any country outside of the US (and I think some people in Australia have received theirs) is going to have to wait the same amount of time before they get him. I wonder what's caused the hold up.

Good point. I am sure there is a very fine line between what is considered a Muppet and what is not. When Labyrinth is advertised, however, they usually use the term Muppet when saying things like "starring David Bowie with Jim Henson's Muppets" or something similar. I would class anything...

Wasn't "Muppet" just a term that Jim Henson used to describe any character that was created by the Henson company? I would guess that even characters like Flat Eric from the Levi's ad, Monkey from the UK PG Tips ad and any other Henson related character would and should be considered a Muppet.

Good point. Customs will have a field day with the tax to pay on £176. My guess with handling fee would be £25 minimum.

Hmm, I wonder if that means that we might see a replica of Ronald Duck next in line after Fozzie? Maybe Mickey Moose could be after that? :p It does seem like MR have a lot on their plates with Muppet stuff alone without taking their other projects into consideration. I'm just looking forward...

I know this question has probably been asked time and time again but: How easy is it to remove the original pupils? Do they leave a lot of marks behind? Do they leave sticky residue behind and how do you remove it? I have to agree that his eye placement is pretty awful on the original thing...

That's fair enough. It'd be nice to have him right now but waiting a bit longer isn't too much of a problem for me. As long as they do definitely receive him, I'm fine with it. The fact the date has been changed a couple of times already just made me worry that they might not receive him at all.

Does that mean they only order the amount of Gonzo's they have already had pre-orders for? If so, how will they be able to have him listed as "for sale" on their website after the initial customer orders have been fulfilled?

Yeah, thanks Leanne. :) I'm hopefull that Piggy will still be after Fozzie. She will complete the basic group for me. Any replicas after that will be a bonus!
