    What's up with Piggy in the Frawley test?

    well, actually.... If this is the Frawley test I am thinking of, the one on The Muppet Movie dvd, then Piggy looked very much like she did during TMS late season 2 -- early season 3. Some episodes I can specifically think of comparing the "Frawley Piggy" to are Alice Cooper, Cheryl Ladd, and...

    Will EB Change the date again?

    isn't it odd But isn't it odd that the exclusive Piggy is still shipping on date --SUPPOSEDLY!! I just think it's odd that they are shipping her out, but the regular assortment is getting pushed back! Any ideas? Jim

    Hold Your Breath and Cross Your Fingers...

    Here's my idea... I've finally convinced myself that from now on I won't look at ebgames.com to catch the ongoing saga of release dates! I'm just going to sit back and wait for them to appear... sometime in August:D Jim

    Hold Your Breath and Cross Your Fingers...

    Well.... But it also says that the lab playset ships today too....and from previous threads, I got the impression that it wasn't due to ship until closer/into July. Could be wrong though.... Jim

    Hold Your Breath and Cross Your Fingers...

    I was just at ebgames and did a search for "Muppet" and *gulp* all of series one, excluding the Piggy exclusive and the Lab, were "under maintenance".... Now, I take this to mean that they are either setting back the shipping date or taking them off of pre-order status.... CROSS YOUR...

    The best Muppet moment ever!

    Speaking of Pigs In Space... Hey, Buddy Bert- On the lines of Pigs In Space, I always loved the episode in which Miss Piggy was so heavy that the Swinetrek was leaning to one side.... Now, that's funny in itself, but then Strangepork has a line - something like, "It'll sure louse up our...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    rural West Coast... If you think living in the rural West Coast is bad, try living in the rural MIDWEST!!! We seem to be the last to get ANYTHING!! That's why I have little concern about the continually revolving EB ship date...no matter how long I wait they will still ship here sooner than it...

    just saw the new floyd

    Floyd? Where did you see the newer Floyd at?? Is there something I'm missing? Or were you just late on seeing the Floyd pics? Jim

    EB PIGGY's Price

    If I remember... If I remember correctly, somebody on this forum once said that EB is notorious for high prices on pre-orders, BUT the price will in actuality be less when the product is in stock. Could someone back me up on this? I remember someone saying something like that, but I can't...

    The best Muppet moment ever!

    Muppet Movie I sort of liked the whole "Kermit in the desert" scene in which he reflects on his trip so far with the ending of him looking up at the shooting star.... Kind of like Grandmaster's idea, but I like this scene better because Kermit is ACTUALLY Kermit....a concept that a few...

    EB games strikes again!

    HA! You have my vote!!

    Check out the BIT!

    Beaker rules! It's funny how I never noticed the flaws in the old Beaker until I saw the new one!! Keep up the good work, Ken!! Jim

    EB games strikes again!

    good point! Yes, I guess that might be true. I could see how that might be due to the latest security measures....still, it's a real kick in the teeth!! :) Jim

    EB games strikes again!

    Well, I thought I would let you all know, EB games has again moved back the shipping date for Series 1 action figures.... Not a big move, June 6th now instead of June 4th, only 2 days, but still, a move back nonetheless! Just an update! Jim

    Valentine & Sex and Violence

    Okay, here's the deal.... I think I might be the ONLY person here at MC who HASN'T seen these two pilots! Now, for a long time this has been just fine by me, I have managed to live a completely normal life.... BUT, with the introduction of the new MC as well as the Kermitage episode...

    It's happened again!

    EB Games.... Sheesh! You're right about EB games! I just called them myself and they seem to be very flippant about it! I can't stand smug service reps....I was tempted to say that I have spoken with a representative of Palisades and know for a fact that there is NO shipping delay from...

    It's happened again!

    EB Games.com Yeah, I was disappointed too!! I was counting down the days. I also called the local Toys R Us and they told me that they won't have the figures until "sometime between June and August"! *sigh* Jim

    Do you want a Pepe figure in series 6?

    Good list, but... I think that SOME Muppet characters should never be made. For instance: Trumpet Lady Brown-haired female muppet WHO is the brown-haired female?? If a character doesn't have a name or if they have one like female #3 or blue frackle, they OBVIOUSLY don't have the appeal...

    Party Monster

    here's my idea... Well, think about Don Music banging his head on the piano or Roosevelt Franklin -- a minority in a very rowdy classroom. In an increasingly PC world, we can't offend and don't want to encourage bad behavior. Maybe Leo was too much a "crazy party guy"....I don't agree with...

    Party Monster

    Don't quote me... I think this same topic was brought up EONS ago in the old forum...now, like I said -- don't quote me, but I think the monster's name was Leo. I'm sure someone will come along soon enough to either affirm or correct me on that! Hope that helps! Jim
