Happy Birthday Oh Giant One ! :zany:

Indeed, three cheers for Palisades and all their plasticky articulated goodness !!!!!! :p

Hey, Congrats on the show, sounds like it went really well. Hopefully there'll be a place for you at Henson someday !

If you knew who Secret Squirrel was you'd probably change your mind about that ! I kinda think he's very well connected .... I think i'd rather that Sesame went out on a high than just dragged itself down completely. I guess they'll see how this year goes when they decide whether to make the...

Christopher Everything on your wishlist is great - that's kinda the best scenario anyone could hope for and i think more or less everybody would support - trouble is it's just very unlikely, for the reasons ChillyDown says, and also because the things we are starting to hear from Disney just...

wow - thanks for that, very interesting !

Yeah it is indeed true, i've heard it from ALF's creator and also it's in the biography of the manager who was negotiating the deal at the time.

Would you like to try and explain that to the families of the U.S and UK servicemen who have been killed in this war ? As i've said before, if Saddam isn't a 'hitler' then lets send you over for a sunny vacation in one of Iraq's torture or rape rooms and then ask you what you think after that...

Yup, cool isn't it ? I mentioned it in a thread to Warrick about a month ago - the Clinton's near me had another character as well.

Isn't a lower framerate (which we have) better than a higher one ? I could have sworn a lot of TV tech people have told me that.

I think Lew is probably the best, but Newsman definitely has the potential to top that in the future.

It was around 1985 probably, Diz offered about $7 million for the entire rights - there was some negotiation which ended when Disney said they wanted to call him "Disney's ALF" and basically make him just funny and take out the sharp crude humor. The creators thought it was a lame idea that...

I dunno, could he be one of the Dixie Chicks ? :eek:

They keep stealing the 3D glasses ? Dang - it's Disney so you'd think they'd put an electric shock microchip into them or something wouldn't ya ? You could have a big sign of Crazy Harry saying 'Return Glasses Or You Go Boom !'

Yeah i was joking a bit about the Elmo stuff but my original comment stands, i actually probably would take up an offer to be in Baghdad. I wouldn't enjoy seeing other people get hurt but yes i think it would be an interesting experience to be a part of the overall story. I've worked briefly...

I completely agree FooFooCakes, this is indeed the worrying aspect of it. I don't think he would have had complete creative control with the original merger but he would certainly have had more influence than Henson would now. Then again, the Muppets are a long established brand and making...

Count, Sounds like Ken is helping you already so you don't need to use it, but for reference, the FAQ i was talking about was the main site one at this link :- http://www.palisadestoys.com/new/thecompany/FAQ.html

I don't think Palisades have to replace figures where the person has actually broken something off themselves, but ya never know, they are nice guys. Sounds like they are going to get a lot of requests ! :eek: Do the Tour Animals have this articulation problem too ? I was thinking about...

Well you know, it was great work and i prefer reading fact far more than fiction. I guess i've grown out of fairy stories ! ;) Anyway i must check out your other columns at LP, i'm not the biggest Diz fan but i've joined the forum and will have a look around. I was reading in Bernie...

Wonder if any important announcements will be happening near that fountain soon eh ? ;-)
