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

    On thefwoosh.com forum, DSTZach said he thinks they'll make a set of new Muppet figures after Sweetums and Robin. So, no variants yet. Who do folks want to see? I'm hoping for Lips and Lew Zealand, which I think could actually happen. Lips seems likely to me. I could see him being paired with...

    Boss Fight Studio's Fraggle Rock Action Figures

    I thought I saw somewhere that they were finally on the water from China a little bit ago. Hopefully, we get them soon. I forgot that these were originally supposed to arrive fall 2023. Maybe we'll get them by fall 2024. 😂

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

    Thanks for the reply. My question is really if the same pattern is true for variants of 'main' characters? Does a Kermit as Captain Smollet sell better than a Newsman? I guess it probably depends on the variant and character. Personally, I'm guessing MCC variants of main characters, or even the...

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

    Do variants generally sell better than new characters? Personally, I would love MCC figures and think there would be lots of interest in those. I don't know if Pigs in Space and Vets Hospital variants would be more or less popular than new characters. Someone on FB suggested DST make characters...

    Sesame Street Figures from Super7

    I haven't seen anything about wave 3 or any recent updates about wave 2, not even product photos. It seems like Super7 is in a bit of a slump lately. I wonder if that is impacting this line. The Yip Yips came in a two-pack for series 1. Is that what you're asking? I'm not aware of variants of...

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

    Awesome! They actually showed the prototypes of the figures during a live Q&A on YouTube last night. A screenshot is posted on the Muppet Merch section of the ToughPigs Discord. The more I look at the Sweetums figure, the more I like it. I'm curious how it will look once we can see additional...

    Boss Fight Studio's Fraggle Rock Action Figures

    Sprocket seemed a little big to me. Is he bigger in the new show? Maybe I'm just remembering his size wrong. I'm exactly the same when it comes to Mokey. I was planning to just wait for an original version, but now I'm planning to get both and just think of the new one as a different character...

    Thanks for sharing the YouTube video! Veebs posted some size comparison photos on Instagram. The 7th photo below shows how well they match Palisades.

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

    On the Fwoosh.com forum, Zach said that Lew, Sweetums, Newsman, and Lips are on the 'sooner rather than later' list, which sounds great to me! I think DST may have another production run of the several of the Best Of packs in 2024 (ee and bbts show several packs are restocking in 2024), but I...

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

    There was an answer to a question about more Muppet figures on today's AskDST. "Graham T. I saw that Uncle Deadly and Pepe went up for pre-order on October 20th. That's great news! How soon can we expect to see the next Muppet figure two-pack after them? I hope y'all are planning many more...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    I should have clarified that these are all DST figures not Palisades. I don't have enough Palisades figures to even think about messing with them. Plus, they are in limited supply. It looks like many of the DST figures are included in another production run and available in June 2024, with the...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    I used Gonzo for Nigel, Dolores, and Louis. For Bobby, I used Scooter. To make Nigel and Dolores a little taller I cut their thighs and added about a quarter inch of miliput. For Louis and Bobby, I added ProCreate to make their jackets bigger.

    Custom figures and dioramas

    I finished customs of Bobby Benson, Nigel, Dolores, and Louis Kazagger. Overall, I am happy with these, especially considering they are my first real attempt at customizing. I appreciate any feedback and constructive criticism.

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

    I'm curious everyone else's opinions about which Muppets could get figures next and, really, which Muppets are more popular now. I assume every Muppet that has appeared in productions available on Disney+ is an option for DST, which I think is pretty much all of them. Here's my guess for order...

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

    Zach Oat, from DST, has said they are moving away from full waves and focusing on individual releases because they had trouble when releasing full waves. He also said that the figure after Deadly and Pepe is sculpted and ready to show, but they will probably wait a bit because they just...

    Boss Fight Studio's Fraggle Rock Action Figures

    This second wave looks great! I'm happy they're making all the main characters in the first two waves and that they'll be making a classic Mokey later down the line. Hopefully, these sell well enough for them to get to that figure.

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

    It could be a single figure with many or large accessories, maybe the Newsman and desk or Marvin Suggs and his Muppaphones. Here's what Zach recently said, "Not sure we'll have the next one at NYCC -- sculpt is done, but there's a lot to paint..." So, maybe it won't be at NYCC. His comment...

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

    Hmmm, I wonder if they will make figures from the EM show. Hopefully, a second season will be announced soon, now that the writers' strike is over. Zach, from DST, mentioned on the Fwoosh forum that the figure coming after Deadly and Pepe is already sculpted and MAY be shown at NYCC, if it can...

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

    They made Minimates of Pigs in Space. If their Select line continues, I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually make a 3 pack. There are also Minimates of Lips and the Newsman. My guess is that DST will make a Select figure of Lips before Pigs in Space, since he was so prominent in the new EM...

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

    It would be so awesome if they made all these figures! I hadn't thought about Beverly Plume before, but now I want them to make her so I can turn her into the Christmas turkey from A Muppet Family Christmas. Maybe they could make the snowman as part of A Christmas Carol, since I assume Disney...
