We may do an Animal outside the Playset this year as another show exclusive. A black T-shirt version like the current art that is circulating. Might do it for San Diego, not entirely sure yet.

Got a question...does anybody have a pic of the robot Kermit from some cover of a mag? I am not talking about the one in the episode with the thing in his back...I'm talking about the picture of an actual robot Kermit. Jamie knows more about it than I.

Here's a bad idea I got from the picture of Bunsen, Beaker, Gonzo and Janice working in the lab with Kermit ducking in the foreground, would it be pausible to make variants of Janice and Gonzo where they're wairing labcoats? Does anyone accually know of the pic I'm talking about?

I know that picture - it's on the back of the first It's The Muppets video, right?

I thought Gonzo didn't wear a lab coat, he just wore his natural vest... have to check that pic out.

I noticed at www.ebgames.com today they have daredevil Gonzo and the Electric Mayhem set available for preorder.....

First, I thought it was odd that they only have these two pieces from series 2.
But, and I could be wrong, but didn't Ken at one point say that the Electric Mayhem set WOULDN'T be available for series 2 because of unexpected costs and delays in sculpting or something like that??

ebgames.com said that these two pieces would be shipping on August 3. Also, they have the EM set selling for $19.99 as opposed to ML's $21.99. Any ideas as to why that is?

So if anyone, maybe Ken :smile: , could tell me what's going on it would be much appreciated!!

Thanks,
Jim

I have been kicking this idea around in my head for about 3 months. Since we have been talking about what WE want in the line I thought I would throw it out here for conversation. Whatnot Figures!!!!! Using Kens's marvelous magnet technology we would get blank faced figure and all the parts. It would include everything you would need for backround characters: hats, eyes, mouths, noses, molded hair, even ears! It would be like Mr. Potato Head but without all thoses holes.

I had the same thought! There could be a a few of them-- with different colored and shaped heads and in different clothing-- each coming with two or three noses, sets of eyes, hats and hair. Maybe even some eyebrows and beards or mustaches.... The accessory possiblities are endless.

But all the pieces would be lost within 5 minutes, surely!

Not if it came with a little magnetic display board. The set could even come with a little chest of drawers. I would like to see the Whatnots in a 2 pack. The figures could all be different colors also all randomly packed together.
