    henson shuts down the new york muppet workshop

    Does anyone know, if the Henson's plan on investing any of their own millions back into the company if a management buyout happens. Are they considered one of the outside investors with the buy-back plan? Not that I want to sound harsh, but the Henson children got their pockets well padded...

    henson shuts down the new york muppet workshop

    Do they have a puppet building workshop in the Chaplin Studios? Seems strange that they are doing this cutback now when it looks like Muppet productions are increasing. Also, one has to wonder how this will translate into changes in the Muppet look down the line. I know they have a well...

    Idea for poll for Henson Company

    Ok, Cool maybe she will look more like we remember her in future outfits. I hope with the addition of the seperate piece for the hair and ears you guys will be able to use old head sculpt. Thanks again for the inside info Chad

    Idea for poll for Henson Company

    Not looking for a specific season. Loved the head to the EB exclusive and hope they will use that one for the Piggys in the future since it is the retro look and fits Pigs in Space and Nurse Piggy. And if they could make her less skinny (may be asking too much) but that would be a plus. Chad

    Idea for poll for Henson Company

    Hey gang, Since Ken has stated on several ocassion that Piggy's new look is the way Henson want's her to look now. I think the new figure and facial features will not fit with her retro nurse and space outfits being made. This may be only my opinion but if i can't state it here where can I...

    2nd Series One Custom Pic

    Cool!!!! How did you get his shirt perfectly plad? I have thought of making some of my duplicates into Christmas ornaments with small eye-hooks and scarfs. But looks like I can take it a step further with some paint. Great job, since the Kermit version featured in MTM is one of my favorites...

    Dark Crystal Dolls - Available in the UK

    The Newbery Comics near Cambridge, MA has them for $40 each. The heads look better once out of the box. I think it may be that angle at which they have forced them in the box. But I had the same thought about my set and then too them out and I was much happier. I have an extra set of them for...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Ken, It may be a bit early to ask this but here it goes. Will Pigs in Space and Nurse Piggy have a body truer to the Muppet Show version or the new Henson "Slim Fast" Piggy? I like the fact that the hair and ears are a seperate piece on the exclusive Piggy. I think this could also help...

    Series 1 Arrives: When and Where

    Miss Piggy EB version Hi, Just received three of these in the mail. Two for me and one for a friend. The Exclusive figure is great but all three have paint chips where her shoulder joins the body. The area is a clear white type of plastic unpainted. So a small portion of her arm is...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Piggs In Space Reaching here. But I enjoy the episode of Pigs in Space in the Linda Rhondstadt episode. Piggy hides Kermit in a steamer trunk and they play along like it is from outersapce. Piggy is trying to hide her frog from Linda's advances. Cute variant of Kermit would be him in that white...

    Series 1 Figures and Busts Come To England !

    Busts Hi, Yes, I too believe the November date is correct. I just ordered the whole line to sell through my business. Sideshow said they would probably ship in November or later because factory issues could come up as they usually do. In addition, the Dark Crystal doll were long delayed...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Possible DC line Don't get me wrong I would like to see both made. After all, my Dakin plush of Labyrinth are starthing to age, but I think the characters are more intertwined in DC than Labyrinth. Labyrinth does feature a lot of one-sceen characters that are interesting. But besides Hoggle...
