Ask Ken at Palisades

[MaxGoof]

Is that all the outstanding questions?

Ken

No... you missed one. Penguins, Ken. Give us an update on the possibility of Penguins.

I'd also hope people are a bit more intelligent to start any kind of 'flame war' over someones opinions on action figures.

Not a question, but a great post worthy of response. YES, YES. Always speak your mind even if it peeves people...this is a forum...differing opinions is what makes it worthwhile to read.


Ken

No! Flame wars are evil! People with differing opinions suck!

okay, maybe I'm just not sure I can keep up with more than two pages of new posts a day...

My votes are nurses as per the show (scrubs) and Rizzo with singing/talking cheese, and other assorted talking food that didn't make it into the kitchen.

But opinions are coming in late, oh well.

Nurse Piggy & Janice_I don't see why you can't just make the regular figs in scrubs (now I can't stop thinking about that TV show) and some exclusives in nurses outfits.

14" Beaker_Yay!!!

Flame wars_Sounds like fun. *picks up a huge blow tourch* Who wants some?

Response to the questions:


1) I vote for Piggy and Janice in scrubs
2) I already mentioned it a while back, but talking food for Rizzo

How is Sam looking, more like the old or the new? The new Sam has much more round features (and looks less like a bird for it) but as you may recall the Sideshow bust looks EXACTLY like the Sam we all know and love from TMS Season Two on. I'm hoping that the Henson company didn't give you the pic of Sam with the big round eyelids and the rounded off beak, esp. since they didn't force it on Sideshow.

One last quick question: is there a payphone in the Swinetrek? If you've seen the John Cleese episode you're familiar with what I'm talking about. It was supposed to be an intercom; the pay phone is a design flaw that slipped by them. If this was forgotten or unknown when it was designed and sent into production then no biggie but if it's in there I tip my hat to you (although I'll tip my hat to you anyway for everything else you've done on this line.)

Landed about every new Star Wars fig from AOTC, a second set, that I spent many hours opening and positioning for display. Some had some cool little surprises...some I was majorly disappointed in out of the package.

opening for display?
You played with them!!! Just like us, ya nerd!!!

gooobooo gabaaa gooobooo gabaaa one of us, one of us......(Go rent Tod Brownings Freaks if you missed that refference.

(RE: YWOSC Figures) ....Santa is much bigger though in our line. The PM Santa is a bit small if you ask me. Have you opened up and/or played with a Hermey? Great hip joint, a split ball. Look for something similar on Statler and Waldorf. So they can sit and ALSO look great standing with no visible T-crotch.

I agree Santy looks like he is on the same diet as Piggy.
Yes, I opened and positioned for display the Hermy
The joints in the leg are impressive. My only complaint is you have to practically nail his hat on. and he can only hold one of his accessories. (the pliers)
I also like the neck joint in the Mezco Popeye (At least the Series 2 in the dress whites, that is the only one I opened and positioned for display so far.. I needed him for my bald figure collection - between Homer and Yoda)

Theres far too much Beaker about, i'd like to see a 14" version of one of the other characters first, then maybe go onto someone like Beaker.

Now a 14" Animal - that would be cool ... and i'm not going to do any jokes along those lines so everyone can relax.
