Well to the majority they ARE mainly for kids and they only had so many plushes - it makes sense to make the young children a priority ! I'd rather a child have a Muppet plush because they wanted it than some adult taking one just because they could get a few dollars for it on Ebay. I...

This is the thing though - this is the 25th Anniversary, we DO have the chance to be choosy, we ARE seeing a lot of competition out there in the Muppet merchandise area. It's GREAT for fans - although without the good ol' "25th Anniversary" carrot unfortunately it might not last long.

Re: Rooted Hair For Beaker? Jamie, just looking back, that's really not how either of your two posts sounded at all. In fact, you gave reasons why people wouldn't want Beaker and you said you would have liked Kermit yourself. I dunno if you didn't come across how you meant to or something...

Cory - the more obscure figures were short packed and thus with less available to actually put on the shelves, it 'looks' like they have done better than the main characters but in reality there are more Kermits and Piggy's left because there were more put out there in the first place.

Yeah maybe we can have a retro night one time and post as if it were those times on those topics - it would be wierd to put yourself in that situation and see what you'd say.

Uncleduke & Muppetquilter Actually looking back, i don't think there were people drooling for this large scale Beaker figure. Ken asked people what they thought about them doing it and got a few lukewarm replies. I don't consider that drooling compared to the amount of people who voiced their...

How can you say that when the whole idea why the Palisades people are here is to get opinions. You can't just expect people to be butt kissers, if they like it or not they should give their honest opinion. The feedback be it positive or negative should be valuable. You are quite right that...

The thing is, it hasn't particularly pleased anybody, and this is the most eager group of customers you are gonna get, and the people have loved absolutely everything else - people were even positive about the regular 'Miss Piggy'. The idea that Beaker stuff sells like hotcakes is a bit...

Yeah i thought this was what Ken was hinting at in his last list and once before he mentioned a larger version of beaker. Personally, i agree with the former poster - why do we need another Beaker ? There are too many Beakers around even right now and it's not even as if it's the most major...

Check out www.store.nascar.com or www.thenascarstore.com and there might be some stuff there !

I guess with EMTV on the skids they're employing Prawns !

Did everyone else get a wierd email from the UK Henson press office about this through a 'We Love Pepe' hotmail address ? Seems like the whole company is prawn crazy !

Well there is something called PHPMYCHAT or something similar to that - it interfaces with THIS forum script (Vbulletin) and you can see an indication on the main forum page as to how many people are chatting like 'XX People In Muppet Central Chat Room' - That would be very cool to have here...

Because i've tried, others have tried - while people express an interest in a Muppet Chat room, very few of them come. The CJB chat had 9 or 10 people one night but fizzled out. I guess 'Toughpigs' organised chats are the best idea right now.

Re: Say What? Simple Jamie - we don't allow Whoopi Goldberg on TV here aside for science fiction purposes. I don't think she's ever even dared come into the country for promotion. However we are all mad wrestling fans and if we go by the Hulk Hogan cameo - Goldberg isn't that far fetched !

LOL - thanks Grail, Smig told me about this a few weeks ago and i was blown away (very much like the Penguin will be). It is indeed a gratuitous use of penguins in explosive plush proportions ! :-)

LOL - it sounds like Bunsen and Beaker got bored on the ship so decided to try out some experiments in Muppet Labs but blew up the joint ! ;-)

Ken could always change his name to 'The Saviour Of Muppet Merchandising' ....... anythings better than a license for panties ! Luke

Well no, if we're all being honest - it's a major QC flaw - but glad you got what you wanted Smiggy and glad the figure was in one piece. Also glad you know what the heck to do with Super Glue to these things - i wouldn't have a clue !

Actually i'm not that hot on impressions - i've done voiceovers on TV though for some Uk channels. I think i can do a passable Kermit though.
