Ask Ken at Palisades

New!!! Pink and Chewy Rowlf figure!

Did any one see this? It looks like Rowlf was made out of Strawberry Starburst. Boy! That ROwlf sure can play some good Bubble Gum music! And his eyes are missing as well! Man. Aren't prototypes just the Funniest things?

To everyone on the MC forum boards and consequently registered over at Palisades' forum as well:

I'm deeply sorry to have created such a firestorm over Series 5 Gonzo and Camilla. I was trying to help Phil update the Muppets figure release listings by telling him the accessories that Ken just mentioned for S5 Gonzo. I said: "Gonzo would come not with Camilla, but with all the other goodies." when I should've said: "Gonzo will come not "only" with Camilla, but with all the other items as well."

Once again, I ask forgiveness for the confusion.

ah hah, so you're the culprit!! That's cool, don't worry about it Count....

to quote Big Bird -

Oh everyone makes mistakes.
Oh, yes they do
Your sister and your brother and your dad and mother too;
Big people, small people, matter of fact, all people!
Everyone makes mistakes, so why can't you?

in other words, don't worry about it.

ON Wisconsin!!! On Wisconsin!!! And then some other words.

Two Nates on the board and both from wisconsin, Whoda thunk it.

Love the Pink Rowlf!

I just love Rowlf period!

At first my heart sank when I read that Camilla wasn't coming with Tux Gonzo. But now that it is all cleared, and it was a little "woops".... I am happy to know that she is coming with Tux Gonzo! Now the two of them can "cluck" together as I am sure they did many a time back stage! Ha ha!

 

[bc-fraggle]

I just looked at my Gonzo and Camilla joke and thought to myself that it was really lame and bombed!

We'll all just pretend that I didn't post it!



Sorry I may have missed something, but did I read that the exclusives for Series 2 are coming out later on? Was this so for series 1 ( I started collecting in September - so everything was available). If the exclusives are coming out later... what is the reason? Just curious - not impatient.

 

[Stryder Wolfe]

probably to keep all us muppet fans from starving to death buy spending our entire paycheck on muppet stuff and then not eating for two weeks. This way we can save money for food and then buy the exclusives on the next cheque

Ken:

Just to comment on this all the EB Piggy's I have seen (like 5 or 6) and the 2 I ended up purchasing have fairly poor paint ops on the shoulder joints. Meaning, you can actually see were the arm joint mets the shoulder. Clearly 2 "shades" of skin color. Almost as if not enough of her "skin" color paint was added to the top of her shoulders.

Not complaining, wouldn't even think twice about it on other lines, you guys just do such a great job, the whole "higher standard" thing.

I discussed it with some friends of mine, and we figured it must just be because her skin is a very light color. Just odd how this is an issue on the EB excl. fig and not the standard release.
