    Disney Channel Preps for Muppet "Mini Movies"

    I'd like the muppets to take on some issues like they use to. Like the anti-war stuff they use to do in the 70's. I think we could use some good old fashioned peace songs again. Same Eagle is the perfect character to use right now too. I mean, that is what I love about the muppet show. The...

    Disney Channel Preps for Muppet "Mini Movies"

    Very true. Actually it's very muppets tonighish. Muppets Tonight had a lot of good but the stand-by of humor became bad puns and poor delivery. Puns are great when used sparingly, but Disney does nothing but that with their shows and I think that might have been what infected Muppets Tonight...

    New Fraggle 3-Disc CD Set and Clothing Line

    That's some cool news. I really like the way the fraggle merchandise is being put out. The box sets are a good deal imo and the cd sounds good. There is still am ovie in the works right?

    Disney Channel Preps for Muppet "Mini Movies"

    Yes I know they will attract an audience, but at what cost? I cringe at Zack and Cody talking to Kermit. The disney star act poorly and rely on bad jokes. Sorry, just not a fan of them. It said to see the muppet go from the likes of Bob Hope to the likes of Hannah Montana.

    Disney Channel Preps for Muppet "Mini Movies"

    Good that they are doing new stuff but the part about having Disney channel "star" cameo's made me cringe. I mean I get that the muppets have to use current stars, but why the manufactured disney channel teeny-bopper ones?

    Photo Replica Speculation - Coming next?

    Who knows why, and like i said it's only a guess. It's possible that the patterns were bought by Disney from the Jim Henson Company but Puppet Heap actually made the piggy molds themselves. The patterns are more intellectual property while the molds are something Puppet Head made themselves.

    Photo Replica Speculation - Coming next?

    My guess is that the molds are owned by Puppet Heap even though the character is owned by Disney. Piggy is an intellectual property while the molds are physical property that took money to make. Disney pays for the services of Puppet Heap and may even own the actual puppets, but not the tools...

    Preorder the Animal Muppet Replica

    When was the pic of the dressed Gonzo posted? It looks al ot different than the first shots I saw of the head.

    Hoots the Owl's eyes!

    The original idea was to have the street look real. No street in NYC is squeaky clean. I don't see the point of showing kids a squeaky clean street when trying to relate to them because when they walk outside they are still on a run down street. I know hwen i grew up my street wasn't perfect...

    Next Muppet Replicas: Gonzo, Animal

    Gonzo use to be smaller, now he's larger. Few people realize that he changed size over they ears. The palsiades figure reflects his Muppet Show size more, but since then the puppet got larger I believe.

    New Muppet comic Strip

    Cool. I use to get Disney Adventures as a kid years ago. This would be a reason to at least pick up one issue again.

    Truth commercial: Muppets & smoking

    The commercial is misleading. I saw it and it didm ake me question their tactics. The Muppet Movie was not released as some kid movie. It was released with a huge celebration by hollywood stars. It was star packed for crying out loud. For some reason people think it is ok to lie if they...

    Kermit on American Idol

    That was it?

    Next Muppet Replicas: Gonzo, Animal

    To add a bit, the Star Wars stuff is also a totally different process. I would think it's a lot easier to make a light saber look the same over and over again than a Muppet made of foam and fur. Question: Is Gonzo as far along as Animal? If not, would you guys consider releasing Animal...

    Muppet-Puppet Replicas on Ebay

    I saw the Piggy before it was taken down and it looked interesting but like all the others it was off enough to not be good.

    Battle Within: The Spider-Man 3 Thread (Spoilers Ahead!)

    The game looks as good as the movie! Are those in game or cut scenes?

    People who like these must be easily impressed, considering the influx of good merch we had during the 25th anniversary.

    Muppet-Puppet Replicas on Ebay

    Don't get me wrong, I wouldl ove to buy an illegally made muppet replica is it was good and cheap, but not one of these expensive things that aren't even real looking. Still illegal though....I would just be ok with breaking that law, though I'm not actualy sure if it would be illegal to buy these.

    Muppet-Puppet Replicas on Ebay

    No...they stink compared to the real thing. They look like crappy knock offs, which they are.

    Muppet-Puppet Replicas on Ebay

    They are not hi own creations. They are characters created by Jim Henson and currently owned by Disney. It is illegal to sell them whether he says they are "real" or not. It's why companies like Master Replicas need to pay companies like Disney money in order to make and sell replicas. You...
