    Sesame Street Canceled Figures Interview

    There was a photoshop revision done that address the eye brow placement as well as the hair. I have the picture that was posted online if it from years ago and used it for my own version. I have one that is like 80% complete as far as sculpting goes, but I couldnt get the joints that way I...

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    I mean.... if you all really want the thread to go away you could just stop posting in it... one person posted something a few days ago and then everyone started posting about how bad it was for someone to post in it.

    Sesame Street Canceled Figures Interview

    Well yeah, none of the Palisades set were in scale with the figures. They were all too small, except maybe the drum set. Chef is the size if the fridge in his kitchen and his hand is bugger than his sink. Plus, i think this playset was going to be done DST style where you buy figures that...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    Another Ask DST was posted and the future of the Muppet line came up. They said they would have to sell a great deal more Chefs to break even. And if they just broke even they would release more figures. So, if anyone hasnt gotten a Chef please do so now, and probably be best to buy directly...

    Sesame Street Canceled Figures Interview

    I saw this a while back and promptly snagged all the pics I could. That Bert was an early prototype and I believe was suppose to go through revisions to make him less.. ugly poser like. One day I hope to be good enough to sculpt characters like Oscar with the same level of detail as this. I...

    Video: Kermit on The Tonight Show January 7, 2019

    Remember when the Muppets were on Carpool Karaoke and at the end they started to play Rainbow Connection until the group complained that they always sing that song, and then Kermit publicly sang it about 3 times immediately after that episode was released?

    I dunno. Its not really competition. I belongbto both Tough Pigs and Muppet Central. They arent competing in my mind. I go to which ever is most active. Tough Pigs tends to be up on news, and this forum tends to be better suited for none muppet talk, oddly enough.

    Doing one's best and obtaining results are two different things. One can try really hard to accomplish something, but at the end of the day either it was accomplished or it wasnt.

    Video: Kermit on The Tonight Show January 7, 2019

    I know, but someone on Tough Pigs charted all the times it was performed and Jim Henson only performed it like 7 times, Steve didn't perform it at all in the first decade he was Kermit, and Matt has done it at least once every 7 weeks on average, maybe more by now. Its getting a little...

    Video: Kermit on The Tonight Show January 7, 2019

    It's always nice to see Kermit or any Muppet make an appearance, but why is it ALWAYS Rainbow Connection? Perhaps with a new performer still being introduced to the public Disney is making sure to push the nostalgia button extra hard until everyone just accepts the change.

    Are the Muppets as popular as they were 30 to 40 years ago?

    Question. If the Muppets were popular again, but only as CGI characters on a similar (though higher quality) level as the new Muppet Babies, would you guys be ok with that? I really dont know if i would be ok with that. As for Disney keeping its charactrrs alive, not really. Mickey and...

    Boy, is this forum dead today or what?

    I mean that is great and all, but I would think one would want to activate accounts ASAP, especially on a site that has had decreased activity

    Things the Muppets can't do anymore

    My understanding is that Sesame Street characters fall into 3 categories. You have those that are literal children like Elmo, Big Bird, Zoey, etc. You have those that are adults like Oscar, The Count, and Kermit. They live on their own, hold jobs, and understand that world as an adult would...

    Things the Muppets can't do anymore

    Horatio is safe for two reasons. One, no one knows who that is. Go up to any almost anyone and ask them to name 50 Sesame Street characters. I bet Horatio the elephant never comes up. Two, gay stereotyoes that you can laugh at is just fine by anti-gay groups. But Bert and Ernie are just...

    Things the Muppets can't do anymore

    In a way that goes along with the original point i made. The Muppets can only do safe stuff now. They cant rock the boat or express an ideology. They cant do a thought provoking musical piece about war using woodland creatures or weird aliens anymore. Personally, i would like to see Sam...

    Things the Muppets can't do anymore

    So, I've been watching old Muppet stuff, pre-2000's, and realized just how much stuff we will never see The Muppets do again due to it not being PC that I wanted to list here. Please feel free to list the things you think we will never see The Muppets do again and post clips if you got them...

    This got off track real fast. Personally, i am sad to see that Muppet Central lacks updates on its main site. This is the site where I learned about the Palisades line that in many ways changed my life. Now there is almost nothing new on the main site, even though things have happened. No...

    Boy, is this forum dead today or what?

    I just want them to work. I don't really use my computer as much. It acts more like my entertainment center. I would think he should be happy if others offered to take over certain duties for free, even if he still paid for the domain. It's just sad that there is no new news being posted at...
