Bunsen doesn't really sound like himself in those youtube videos. He's just casually talking and not really saying anything funny. This would be a fun job if you could do it right!
Fisher-Price made Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Grover, Animal, Ernie, Bert, Big Bird, Count, maybe Oscar, Roosevelt, and a few rare characters. Do a search and you'll find posts about all of them. Fozzie is not as great as your Kermit or Animal. He is a half body puppet like your Kermit, but his...
I think The Count would like the cool Count mug.
It is black with a large picture of The Count, and has different color words of numbers (one, two, three, ha ha ha!) in the background. It is signed on the bottom by the Count and has his birthdate: October 9th...
I think they use the terms pro / professional becuase those are hot "keywords" that crazy puppet people like us search for. I search for muppet puppet, professional puppet, pro puppet, monster puppet, etc. So if they didn't use those terms I wouldn't find their puppets.
My biggest problem with my sort of lifelike Grover is they want to grab his big nose, but I think it's just glued on so it scares me. It's cool they want to get closer and are interested, but they can hurt our puppets! I try to yell for mommy when it happens, but sometimes their mom doesn't care...
It sounded like Steve to me, although he didn't use many inflections or get very excited which may have made it seem "kinda off." I thought the puppetry was more off a couple of times than the voice, but I am no expert - just a wanabee.
I have this "represent" shirt. I think I got it at Kohls a few months ago. Or maybe my wife bought it for me from Target, I can't remember. Kohls did have some neat sesame shirts, but I think they were all XL . . . it's been a while. It's a very cool shirt. I think they are just trying to market...
I will assume puppet and sasquatch are both positive names, ha. :)

If anyone can ever figure out the translations, I'd love to try and dub over some of the voices. I could try to do all of them, and if any MC member has a better voice, they could re-do my bad ones. Now, how to figure out the best software / approach to dubbing the voices? I bet we could just...
He's already back with a new user name with zero transactions. That's at least the third username he's used in the past...what 6 - 12 months? This was the first time he had made Kermie, maybe that's what got him. He's even got a myspace page now. Regardless of how you feel about it, those are...
No, it's always a good reminder for one to realize how great your wife / girlfriend / boyfriend / friend is. That's all I was trying to say, she'll be by my side next Halloween! Thanks for caring.
Thanks for reminding me about my wife. She supported me when I was buying all of those Muppet puppets on eBay 8 years ago in college, the videos and records I mimicked for hours (I wish I still had all that extra "college time"!), the way too many palisades figures, the $200 Kermit, and she...
Melonpool - PLEASE steal the idea, the more the merrier. Post some videos, too! If you could fly from Mexico to Indiana we could put on a funny show, just kidding.
Thanks to everyone for the nice comments, and to fragglemuppet for the reminder regarding Grover not using contractions. I don't...
Wow, thanks guys that really means a lot. Shouldn't have mentioned the copyright deal, please no one else mention it either!
It is so much fun for me to do. Luckilly my wife understands how crazy I am about the Muppets, and helps with it, and doesn't make fun of me when I am running outside...
Here is my meeble feeble attempt at the Muppets on Halloween. I do this every year to greet the Trick-or-Treaters and it has become my favorite holiday. Yeah, I can do a better Kermit, Ernie, Fozzie...etc, but try changing voices at the whim of a doorbell! I won't mention the couple of beers...
Are there any plans for a U.S. Muppet Show?
Do you have any tips / pointers for practicing puppeteering?
When practicing with just a naked hand and two ping pong balls, what is your hand supposed to look like? What type of movements are the best to give the best expressions?
And the obvious...
Terry, your work is simply amazing. I think we need to all step back and realize these are still early prototypes, but I'd be happy with them as is. They are awesome! We should all be thankful that you agreed to do this. You are the perfect person for the job, and proved that with Kermie. Can't...
Those are some of the funniest poses I have seen on here. You have a major talent! Too bad there's not a big calling for "professional posers" . . . thanks for sharing!
