    France Henson Conspiracy

    Holy moly. Why does France get all the goods? 2 Muppet Show box sets, Fraggle Rock, and... what the heck is this 2 disc Muppet Christmas thing? http://www.amazon.fr/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00007F7ZJ/qid=1068758044/sr=1-4/ref=sr_1_3_4/171-3706728-1830661

    German Edition: Merry Muppet Christmas DVD

    I keep getting more confused, trying to find the best possible version of this dvd (surprising, considering I was one who found it offensive and sad.) The UK edition is in 1:85:1 widescreen. The German Edition, according to German's Amazon site, is 2:35:1. What is the difference between...

    Its A Very Merry Region 2 - Is It Really Widescreen?

    DVD Debate announces that it is widescreen. Amazon.co.uk does not provide information. But this Ebay listing says it is full screen. I was going to order it, but how can we be sure that it's widescreen? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3361935445&category=2292

    Its a Very Merry DVD Region 4

    Does anyone know if Region 4 is in widescreen or full screen? Because I think it has the same extras as the Region 1 disc, so if it has widescreen, then its the best available dvd for this movie.

    Multi Region DVD players

    I just sold my NTSC Region 1 dvd player. I did it so that I could buy Its A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie Region 2 DVD- to see it in widescreen. I was going to buy Daewoo s151, which converts everything- but I heard that it "squashes" widescreen pal dvds so that they might as well be full...

    Very Merry Muppet DVD Observations

    Trying to ever figure out the so-called reasoning of the MPAA is on a parallel with trying to figure out how to remove a hickey before the sun rises. Good luck. That said, I was disappointed with A Very Merry Muppet Christmas movie. I liked its energy, but it left me merriless and depressed...

    Palisades Series 7 Official Line-up

    Hmm... Uncleduke' post can be taken 2 ways. 1) Series 7 is the magic number with fans... or 2) He has conveniently provided his company's email address, along with uber hype in hopes of turning a profit, due to lack of demand for Series 7. Call me a cynic, but MTI pose Kermits and Johnny...

    Palisades Series 7 Official Line-up

    This Series Is Running Amok. These things are coming out so freaking fast now that I can't keep up. I've been in another country for only 4 months and when I left, Series 3 had just come out in stores. Now we're talking about Series 7? It's making me lose interest actually. I wish they'd hold...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Okay, but a puppet is made for movement and expression by the puppeteer. They are given life when maneuvered. I have seen the Jim Henson puppet. But an action figure is trapped inside only one expression with no possibility for facial transformation. I need another look at the original...

    The Jim Henson Figure I had wondered what the Jim Henson figure would look like for many months. Turns out that it's a muppety-looking version of him, as opposed to a realistic approach. Okay, I can accept that. But can't we get a smile on him? The figure looks a bit ghostly and grim. Jim...

    I'm no prude- I've seen "The War Zone" and "Romance" in their unedited editions. This is the Muppets. I'm happy the movie made you happy, but 10 years from now... AVMMCM will be an obscurity, while The Muppet Movie will still be beloved. I didn't find a need for "God" in this sort of Muppet...

    Bollywood Muppets Sketch, maybe. But I meant a full-on Muppet Movie. Each of Jim's 3 films featured a specific place- Hollywood, London, Manhattan. So in "Bollywood Muppets," the Muppets would travel to Bombay. The colors of India would be an awesome contrast to the colors of the Muppets...

    Bollywood Muppets "Then why aren't the Muppet figures and to a greater extent, the playsets selling ? At least not in the quantities that they should be for a really popular figure line." I understand a lot of what you are saying Luke. But you are comparing Muppets with other action toy...

    "If you just had one incarnation of the most famous characters and only ever did them once then the rest of the line would be fillled with characters nobody except 600 or so die hard Muppet fans and figure collectors would buy" ---I would like to know what evidence this is based on. Just...

    Do you want a Palisades Muppet Babies Playset?

    Maybe I typed my thoughts incorrectly. I want Palisades to listen, but to be careful about what they read here, because there are many customers voices that are not being expressed on this forum, and many people who don't know this forum exists. Going by this forum alone, it seems that the one...

    No Repeat Characters Please I don't like the idea of having the same characters appear in different series. One Gonzo is enough- it should have come with Camilla the first time. It also leaves a space for a whole new character that we will otherwise never see. Is it too late to get a naked...
