I'm not going to rat him out. I will leave that to the owner of the copyright... Disney.

I had always wondered about that ravagefrackle, if I could build like you I would probably keep all designs secret until they were protected. That's interesting. I also found an interesting post on Andrew's site from about a year ago. I like his approach and attitude to the whole thing...

Sounds similar to the muppet replica builders fee paying for their costs? (time and expense) As suggested on here, a real Kermit would cost $10,000 so $400 - $500 for a replica Kermit seems like covering costs only. I tried walking away several times from this train wreck! You'll be back!

Fan sites have google adwords to make money....or sell merchandise....or link as affiliates to online stores.....or subscriptions to online radio playing copyrighted music.... how much of a profit is arguable, but there is money exchanging hands. And it's money generated from copyrighted stuff...

Muppet Central and MuppetCast both play full songs, not just 30 second clips. Fan site or no fan site, that would be copyright infringement as far as I know. Podcast owners struggle to find original music that is good to use on their shows (intros, outros, etc), because they can't use...

You won't find me arguing that it is not copyright infrigement to sell replica Muppet puppets. I think if some kind sole were to sell a replica for cost it may be questionable, but unless you have a close relative who is an expert puppet builder that's probably never gonna happen. I think...

I'm trying to stay out of this, but a thought just occurred to me (imagine that!). If certain people or MC as a group takes this stance against replica Muppets, shouldn't we also take the same stance against trading Muppet mp3s? Should we not reply every day in the Muppet Central mp3 threads...

Hawkeye is still dead right? (I haven't been paying attention) Does that mean that, gulp, Scooter, is....uh, gasp, gone? Hawkeye and Wonder Man were my favorites (old West Coast Averngers fan here) Nice list

That was hilarious! Awesome job, I am very impressed. Did the Ketchup bottle with the green lips say, "Soak him down like a burnt weenie"? ha ha Did you use strings to pull down their lip? The ketchup bottles looked really good. Reminds me of the Swedish Chef with a Count voice. Funny...

double trouble post

Yeah, I was just posting something I found that other puppeteers / magicians used for small places. Who knows if feedback is an issue or if the wireless mic is worth anything, but for $300 somethin' - it looks like an Ok start for someone starting out. I thought the reviews that the store...

John Kennedy, Muppet performer and author of the Puppet Mania! book, will be at the Mousetrap Puppet Theater in Shipshewana, Indiana on August 18th. He actually quickly replied to my email asking about and said this: "I don't think the times are set yet but I will be leading my foam sculpture...

Incredible, you have a great talent.

I just saw this the other day. I don't remember if someone posted a link to one specific product or what. http://www.carltoncards.com/shop/product.cfm?dept_id=190202 The Cookie and Oscar "artwork" are awesome. I really want those. I wish the ID Holders were regular wallets that also had a...

I didn't like her before it was hip to not like her . . . besides the topic is about Roise and Elmo. I agree with you that she helped Elmo to take over Sesame Street. All I know, is that I'm glad she's not the host of The Price is Right. I don't want her to ruin another of my favorite shows. (I...

Yeah, I forgot to mention that Gonzo's left eye looked messed up. His eyelid was raised higher than on his right eye.

I searched for this old thread to add to it as I found I pretty cool looking system online. A pupeteer in my town actually uses it and mentioned it on his website, I need to hook up with him! http://floridamagic.bizhosting.com/floridamagic_pas767.html

Oh yeah, I questioned my thought about that, but didn't follow through with the thought! I remember reading Steve wouldn't be available for the Muppet deal in NY because he was overseas. I guess Piggy is making the appearances, and not Kermit, because she is the diva and on the 2nd season cover...

That was awesome! They all did such a great job it was just brilliant. If that didn't bring back some ole' Muppet chaos I don't know what could . . . besides maybe Crazy Harry and Lou Zealand together. Eric was perfect in this, just perfect. They should have all three characters on Craig...

Yeah, no worries JHartnow...if you do a little searching this debate has been going on since at least 2005. There are a few passionate people that will keep it alive, probably forever as ravagefrackle suggests. I pretty much agree with what Bear Man said though.
