the first one is certainly the right one. Connecting talk to telephone operator is just way out there. People forge the muppet show had a good deal of sexual jokes and such. Piggy was even called a sex symbol in one of the muppet specials. Everyone always seems o forget stuff like this. I...

They do, or did, on Sesame Street. I think. I believe there was a time where Cookie Monster and Grover were on screen at the same time and one of them was Frank for sure. Can't remember now, but it was neat seeing the two characters done live. Anyhoo, it's sad Frank seems to want nothing to...

That Piggy sculpt is rather good. I'[d be happy with that.

I think it is too early to judge the sales. Kermit is the only one out and as popular as Kermit is, I think most people are kind of sick of him. I know I was going to pass on Kermit because I didn't want to end up with just a Kermit. there is a lot of good Kermit merch out there. So while he...

Well for one I don't see the EM as obscure. if we are talking Marvin Suggs then I agree totally (though he would be neat) but not the EM. When it comes to high end products like this you will always attract the hard core fans. No one who is a casual fan is going to buy a 400 dollar Fozzie...

I disagree because the people buying these are people who know the characters and the show. Kermit may have been bought by anyone, but the further down the line you get the more hard core fans you have. It's like the action figure line. No one though someone like Lips would sell, but he did...

Rowlf would be cool. it won't look much like the puppet though as the puppet is a blanket puppet. Rowlf didn't have clearly separate arms like Ernie, Fozzie, and Link. He has arms like Chef where Rowlf really has no shoulders. Janice would be cool too, and Floyd is visually stunning like...

Well I don't see this as being a hoax. I just wanna see something more close to the actual product before I start waiting for it. I'm rather annoyed that Piggy is just a straight up pose head. They did the same thing with the motor cycle figures and I was very disappointed.

Plus Scooter is making a come back. In the last 2 TV movies Scooter was there. With lines no less! Plus he was part of that Muppets TV show in france. Hopefully this is a trend that will continue.

I think a bunsen and beaker set would be so great, but I dunno if that will happen because they'd really need to be done together. Scooter is one I really want cause I always thought he had a great design and color scheme. A camilla might be cool for Gonzo, but I don't see myself spending too...

Statler and Waldorf are photoshopped too? It looks like Fozzie and the Chef are added digitally, but they look like actual sculpts too. I wonder just how awful the piggy sculpt is since they left the pretty bad Scooter. Edit: Also, notice Fozzie is missing his eye lids too. Some of them...

It's probably a real product, but it is definitely photoshopped up a lot. And it looks to like the Piggy head is all photoshop, taken from the tilted head pic they like to replace old piggy heads with. Edit; looking at the pic they gave Fozzie a tail. Fozzie doesn't have a tail.

Hmm. I wonder how long they have the license for. Is it for an amount of time or number of characters perhaps. Considering how long it takes to produce each one perhaps we won't see as many as we'd like, Though we will have the top 5 plus Rizzo. I can't wait for Fozzie and as soon as we see...

I don't think that's gonna work. 1. More than 100 Gonzo's will be made. 2. If the foam degrades faster for some people you'll likely see more than 1 nose replaced per replica. 3. The cost of storing that many Gonzo noses in proper conditions would probably cost more than the profit...

Wow, that actually looks good. piggy is surprisingly good. Most times sculptors never get her right, but this is spot on. I agree about Scooter though. He's way off. Everything else is rather good. Edit: after looking it over, is this the actual product or are some parts photoshop? Piggy...

Interesting, but I'm not sure how that could be done once the poser is put together. I do hope there is a way around it and I also hope the final products of these look a little more like the original hand made prototypes. I got Kermit today and while he is cool, it's lacking compared to the...

I JUST got my Kermit in the mail and all I did was open the box and was amazed already. It looks great! I will try playing with the poses today. I hope i can take pics. My camera took a bad fall onto a cement floor a few hours ago. :(

Fleece does not look like foam and will not look right. You said it yourself, whatever is used has to look right. As for the we should be happy we get anything comment, no we shouldn't. If we are spending 250 on Gonzo it should look right. Sure some things being off are part of the process...

All I know is that any fabric covering won't look right. It's just too dominant a feature to mess with like that.

No, it seemed like he was attempting the current Fozzie, but it was just so robotic. He tried Fozzie's "ahhhh" but instead he sounded very robotic and monotone. Plus the move with the hat just looked so bad. It's like he didn't even come close to his mannerisms, first or second season. It's...
