    Well, i'm going to see what happensin terms of takign him out of the package. We'll see what happens. Ya know the way these guys have been flyin off shelves, fans and collectors will probably get him before anyone else can "what the...?" So you never know. I've seen a lot of stores that have...

    question

    Hmmm, I'm thinking Swinetrek. From about day 1, it's been the playset I've been looking forward to the most. I guess it all comes down to personal taste. I like Chef and all but Pigs in Space has always been one of my favorite sketches. So that's the one playset I REALLY want. it also...

    Sweetums eyes I don't know about a figure but there also used to be these little rubber puppets (mid-80s ) that had this feature. I can't rememebr what they were called but they were little monster puppets that cam in a little "cage" box and had a mech inside that allowed you to shoot the eyes...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Sweetums eyebrows Ken, I know you hate 'kung-fu grip" action figures and I'm inclined to agree, but this may be one of those places where you say "there's an exception to every rule". What I was thinking is that you coul hide the trigger (some kind of slider bar across the back) somewhere...

    Pepe shouldnt be included in the 25th celebration? BAH!

    Yeah, if I were incharge, I'd hold Pepe unril the lin needed a little extrag as and then put him in. As well as Johnny, Sal, Clifford, Bobo, and Dr. Phil (not in that order). right now I think the line has enough gas to get to end of '03. I'd put pepe in 8. Ken has said there are decisions...

    Miss Piggy glove up for auction

    Yeah I decided to put my money more towards Muppet figures instead of this, but I figures someone on this board should have it. That's why I posted the link and BTW: Thanks Cindy for fixing it for me. I'm no good with these things. Good luck gang. I'm away from my computer this weekend so...

    Annie Sue Figure

    I don't know. Im inclined to agree with Nate about her character. I just never cared much for her and actually have tough time really recailling her so I'd say no, except I had a cool idea this morning for a great variant for her which is a Pigs in Space Annie Sue. OK, I know this never...

    Is this rumor about the Electric Mayhem true?

    Dr. Teeth is based on Dr. John??? I thought he was based in Mac Rebbenack. Are you sure about this? --Matt PS--Just kidding. FYI: Dr. John IS Mac Rebennack.

    What size do you want the Rizzo figure?

    Re: I might have my Muppet license revoked I was thiking about this too and something hit me. A rock, I couldn't quite tell casue I was unconscious for abotu 5 mintues or so. All I know is it was big and it hurt. Anyway, after the swelling went down I went back to pondering the how does...

    What size do you want the Rizzo figure?

    Mike Crawford made a point in the other thread that got me thinking. I think Rizzo shold be articulated but maybe not necessarily to the point of the others. I would make Rizzo the same size as Kenners' Yoda figure (which would put him at about the right scale with about the ame articulation...

    What size do you want the Rizzo figure?

    I vote as "in-between" but I would be all right with an inarticulate one too. I don't think he should be anything over 2 1/2 inches. Actually once you get him on his legs that would be about the right size for him. Talking about "Muppets scale' is an odd thing cause rules don't always apply...

    Most obscure TMS character you'd like to see as a figure

    my top to obscure I'd lik to see are Uncle Deadly and Lips. I think ken had said at one point (on the old board) that Uncle dealdy was a strong candidiate for '03. I'm still really pusing for Lips but I doubt we'll see him. It's weird cause he has such a cult following but really he's just...

    Re: Longevity of the line I don't entirely know about that. I mean, it's true to an extent but around here I know of at leat one store where all their Piggy's were still there while Kermit was mostly gone and Teeth and Bunsen were completely gone. And the pattern is prety much along those...

    An Idea: The Granddaddy of all Exclusives!

    radionate Yeah, I remember the bust. But the tone is different. The bust seems to honor Jim, in that it bears more of a physical resemblance and it surrounds him with his creations. I think when you start talking about a 5 inch plastic replica (even if it is a slightly abstracted replica)...

    An Idea: The Granddaddy of all Exclusives!

    Yes, Ken said Henson has nixed the idea of a Henson figure. He tried though. I can kind of understand that. I mean, in a certain way it is a little glorrifying and crass. The line of figures itself is something I think Jim woul have really approved of but I don't think he would have gone for...
