Ken,
Enjoyed the "Daily Bit" today about the evolution of the Muppet Labs. Can't wait for that thing to hit the shelves. I keep checking in hoping to hear reports, but nothing yet.
Everyone, check out Palisade's Daily Bit (Tuesday, July 9th) which includes plenty o' pics of the upcoming...
I'm glad you enjoyed MFS (Muppets From Space. I need to get used to these acronyms to.) I quite enjoyed it and I think the commentary on the DVD is really cool.
This should probably be moved out of Ask Ken, but since it came up, I've got some questions to anyone who knows: What's up with...
Muppet Book
Hey Ken, I'd be glad to get a copy of the Muppet Book for you as I think it could be a very valuable resource. I just need a go ahead from you first, and eventually contact info on where to send it.
My address:

I thought the silver bases were cool as well, but I would rather have consistency.
Ken, did you ever look into obtaining a copy of "The Muppet Show Book"? If you are interested, but haven't gotten around to it, let me know and maybe I'll see if I can track a copy down for you.
Also, you...
While we're at it, for what it's worth, I had figurines of Gumby and his best gal pal Goo on my wedding cake. Long story as to why they were there, (check out my screen name,) but it sure turned some heads to see those cartoon characters on top of a fancy formal wedding cake.
> The Muppets need to go live(AND OUT of a studio), and do something the fans and public would not expect.
I completely agree with this statement. I think Muppet improv would be absolutely hilarious. Maybe they could do something like Christopher Guest's "Waiting For Guffman" and "Best of...
Are there resources for those who may be interested in customizing? I'm potentially interested--especially in creating unique character prototypes. I've seen Simpson variations on e-bay, both characters and playsets, and I'm amazed. I would be interested to know if there's a particular way to...
I love the detail of the Muppet playsets. You can actually play with these playsets and they actually compliment the characters they come with -- as well with other figures from the regular line (with the exception of maybe Chef's Kitchen).
The Simpons sets seem only to be static dioramas...
Sorry for bringing up the Wedding Piggy. I didn't know it was taboo to speak about. I think it's a really cool gift and something special for Ken and his bride.
I just think the whole idea of getting every single conceivable variation of a toy line is a little silly, and so I brought this...
Ok, it's not exactly Muppet Show, but I would love to see any of the muppets from "Hey Cinderella" -- especially the King and the monster who says "Radish" -- Splurge? Did he ever make an appearance on TMS?
As for the regular series, all my favorites are pretty much already planned...
Me too
If Ken is unable to set something up for people outside of the show, then I'm pretty much sunk too. However, if anyone out there is going and has somehow miraculously not promised to get Beaker for someone else yet, I'd be willing to pay for that person to pick one up for me AND pay for...
SNL inspired?
I've never seen the Leprechaun Brothers, but it sounds amazingly similar to the old SNL spots with Tarzan, Tonto, and Frankenstein (Kevin Nealon, Jon Lovitz, & Phil Hartman) singing Holiday Greetings. Obviously the SNL sketch came years after the Muppet Show, which makes me...
Muppet Show Book
Ken
I have the Muppet Show Book and it is absolutely gorgeous. It has some of the finest illustration ever for the Muppets. Here's the specific details:
* "The Muppet Show Book" (1978)
Layout and illustrations by Tudor Banus
Muppet Press/Harry N. Abrams, Inc.
ISBN...
I found that Palisades has a couple nice Desktop images on their website for their muppet line. However, it only has the four basic 1st series characters and nothing else. So picking up from where Palisades left off and combining the idea that (I assume) FrogBoy used on his site of combining...
Muppets for kids
I just thought I'd relate my experience yesterday at TRU. I went to a local store on Tuesday on the odd chance that they had received the figures. After looking around and finding no evidence, I went and asked the guy at the customer service booth. After looking at me with a...
Comments on Series 1
Hip-hip-huzzah! I just got my set at a local EB in Fort Worth. They look absolutely wonderful! I feel like the end of first Lord of the Rings movie, realizing I just witnessed the beginning of something magnificent and overtaken with anxiousness for the next part of the...
