Hey Rob I'm from the UK too. Yup, the figure and playset prices are a b**ch over here - Palisades would like to get them lower but it's hard for them to do that. As for Animal, there's always 'Tour Animal' - a black t-shirt version - they are selling him at conventions in the states for...

It's just satire, it's comedy, he's the INSULT dog - what do you expect him to say ? He loves em all and thinks they're cute. It's just a grown man writing that anyway, i hear the dogs a fake ! :sympathy:

Re: My Views on ABC TV I get your point - TV ideas need to be more creative, but the networks don't want to spend money on trying new unproven things without track records. I honestly think there is mileage in Celebrity reality shows - but obviously the key to that is getting decent celebs...

Re: 311th post on 3/11 LOL - Yeah i went away at the last minute for a long relaxing weekend and all heck breaks loose with the sale - i'm suprised ALF isn't president too !. The thing with Sesame is meant as an example of how EMTV has mismanaged Henson. Obviously they cut the price of...

Lists like that probably use the wires and articles as sources for news too i would imagine. There was some confusion with the Valentine thing. EMTV announced the current deal had failed, which i believe if he had an exclusive negotiation period for that exact specific deal they would have to...

No Muppet definitely is used as an insult of personality over here, but at least its more affectionate that others terms used. Just as long as yuou aren't called a 'son of a Muppet' !

Yeah whats there seems to be more accurate now, i think the last thing Ken said about Fozzie was that it hinged on what the new retailers wanted, maybe he can clear that up for you. You could always do an official line-up and a projected line-up i guess. Ken, Jamie & All :- What happened...

I don't think they're dropping like flies at all - Saban tabled his offer long ago and knew it wasn't coming off, Valentines deal has not been cancelled or dropped at all (i know the Reuters headline was confusing but just reading the text surely people would get that). They simply abandoned...

The legacy stuff sounds cool, can't wait to see the box. As for the MC lineup - seems to be a few more changes aside from Henson and the S7 PVC's. I didn't think Palisades had announced the S7 lineup at all, but there's nothing to say that on the site. Also BOP Fozzie hasn't been confirmed...

Excellent - good to see ALF re-infiltrating the states. Lots more good stuff to come apparently - there should even be some non-articulated figures out in some shops.

Yeah, as a Muppet fan who isn't so obsessed that everything has to be EXACTLY the same as the show, i would also have supported Ken doing a bit of artistic tweaking. I remember saying that the first time i saw it. I think doing it to things when neccasary gives us a more interesting stand...

Oops yeah sorry, i'm so used to saying Sheperton because they are film studios here i've worked at. The spelling is :- 1800 Sheppard Ave, East.

Looked it up on the web :- Toys Toys Toys 1800 Sheppard Ave. East, Toronto, ON M2J 5A7 Mall Telephone :- (416) 491 0151 Store Telephone :- (416) 493 5416 (Edited the correct address)

If your main priority is completing the band and you're on a limited budget i'd say Tour Animal - you don't specifically need the playset (and you didn't say) so that would be cheaper at $15. Swedish Kitchen is fantastic though, and don't expect it to sit on shelves for months.

Yeah, that is wierd - real wierd. Comment on todays bit - i'm warming to the Swinetrek. I hated the Toy Fair photos, it just looked plain boring, especially with unpainted figures sitting in it. Palisades official shot makes it look funkier and brighter, a real good wide shot with decent...

It's nice to see more and more companies asking the fans what they think - good to see the survey not being carried out by Muppet Central though but still getting coverage as 'news' - we as the real hardcore group are like the Muppet version of the Jedi Council, our opinions can be sought but...

Great news ! I didn't even realise there was a whole Pez community out there - they have PezCon !

The board was only ever down for a few hours so i guess it wouldn't be extended - lots of sites have sporadic uptime/downtime that doesn't last more than a few hours. MM - that entries completely fantastic - lotta work there. I bet Ken has a hard time choosing the winner.

Realize you are anxious about your figure Count, but these kinda detailed trade messages should probably be emailed privately - it can make the other person look like they are slow and affect their future trades.

Re: Guys, Relax Warrick, i kinda know how you feel. Mr Rogers seems to have had a big impact on the states but we never heard of him. It kinda makes it strange to see him front page on a Henson fan site and on the radio, but sounds like he deserved it.
