    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on the Schoolhouse Rock! 50th Anniversary Singalong on Wednesday, February 1, 2023

    Unfortunately, I have to agree with the sentiment that we weren't expecting to get the original animated segments but rather something better than what we actually got. Again, the good points for me were the performances of Interplanet Janet, Unpack Your Adjectives, and Three's A Magic Number...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on the Schoolhouse Rock! 50th Anniversary Singalong on Wednesday, February 1, 2023

    Okay... Glad that this will be available on Disney+. The article for 2023 on the Disney Wiki stated only Hulu so that's why I watched it on ABC tonight. Interplanet Janet starting the special made me smile, both the singer and pace matched the original. Maybe it's the fact I'm getting it in...

    Boss Fight Studio's Fraggle Rock Action Figures

    Heh yeah... And then we'd come back to the argument that the line would have greater character representation if it were a pre-posed PVC line instead of full-height action figures. As for Sesame, it was posted that Super7 would be making them, but I haven't read anything further than that so...

    Boss Fight Studio's Fraggle Rock Action Figures

    Hmmm... If DST S1 Fozzie = 4.5 inches and Boss Fight FR S1 Gobo = 5 full inches, you say that makes these Fraggle figures out of scale with the current selling DST Muppets line. However, if Palisades S1 Kermit = 4.5 inches as well, and Boss Fight FR S1 Gobo = 5 full inches, you say that makes...

    Boss Fight Studio's Fraggle Rock Action Figures

    If in-scale Doozer figures need to be as small as 1 single or 2 inches at the most I'd agree that they should be pre-posed PVC's with perhaps just the one point of articulation where needed like short-swivelling necks. But since I have no idea of the visuals of the figure line when comparing...

    Boss Fight Studio's Fraggle Rock Action Figures

    :news: This is another Muppet News Flash! Hot off the heels of the announcement that Plastic Meatballs will be making action figures of Emmet and Alice Otter based on pre-orders, we now have news that Boss Fight Figures will be producing Fraggle Rock action figures as well. Series 1, if it can...

    Don't forget that Palisades also made figures of Camilla nor Bernice. :cluck:

    On Writing Fan Fiction (Rules & Advice)

    Well, if that's your plot, you'd be best served reading through Ruahnna's original/first posted full fanfic story Somebody's Getting Married?. That, and the fact that said plotline has been used by other members for their own fanfics. I'm not saying that to discourage your efforts but to guide...

    The new What Made You Smile Today thread

    Last Tuesday, my birthday happened. The fam and I went to eat out at Los Gauchos Argentinian Grill. And then Baskin-Robbins where I asked the server to help create a dessert that will be henceforth referred by myself as a Snickers Cheesecake Snowman Sundae. Today, just a while ago...

    Bringing Back the Bells...

    Merry Christmas or whatever you choose to celebrate everybody! Sure felt good to ring my jangling keys as part of the tradition this year, even played one of the Christmassy FR songs to help. Have a great holidays and festive New Year. :excited:

    Plastic Meatball's Emmet Otter Action Figures

    Maybe I'll order, after all I do want to support a company who's going to scratch make quality Muppet action figures. Then again, due to my visual handicap and the fact my overall display's been put away in boxes. Plus I've always shared the opinion put forward by beaker, (one of the forum's...

    Plastic Meatball's Emmet Otter Action Figures

    Dunno if Plastic Meatball is reputable or not, I've never heard of them before now. :skeptical:

    Your Thoughts: Christmas Merrython on Muppet Central Radio

    Thanks Phil. Makes sense Boppity would be #3 mentioned by name since Gloat is #6 in that version. Great job with the station's Christmas music, I've been enjoying a lot of it this season. :)

    Plastic Meatball's Emmet Otter Action Figures

    :news: And now for an update in our lead story. It seems that instead of single releases, Emmet and Alice 'Ma' Otter will be sold together as a 2-pack. The respective accessories now include Emmet's tool chest, the Christmas branch, Alice's laundry basket, and the washtub bass. No information...

    Your Thoughts: Christmas Merrython on Muppet Central Radio

    Before now I didn't know that "Be Positive" was first sung a song from The Secret Life of Toys, I thought it was part of the other original songs from the album Truro Daydreams. Also, in the version of "Happy Little Christmas Elves" sung by the Frackles after taking over Santa's workshop, is...

    Muppet Tiers on Stumptmas

    Muppets as roommates? Huh, now where have I heard that idea before. :shifty: You don't suppose that snowballed into something that used to dominate the Games section of this forum because the people here got together to discuss and plan the whole thing from dorm residency onwards? :concern...

    Remembering Bob McGrath (June 13, 1932-December 4, 2022)

    To truly understand just what a golden voice Bob had, I recommend people find and listen to the song "The Boy From Indiana", the ending refrain will probably give you the same feels that listening to "Goodbye, Goodbye" sung by :smirk: elicits.

    Remembering Bob McGrath (June 13, 1932-December 4, 2022)

    There are no words to express what finding out this news means. My thoughts are always voiced by that Sesame promo that used to air on Noggin, how through the various decades "there was always Bob!" At least he passed in his sleep surrounded by his family and loved ones. We'll ring the dark...
