How much are exclusives such as the statler and waldorf set and the chef with banditos? I just wanted to know the price the Palisades collectors club charges for their exclusives and mini figures etc.

Thanks,
from Paul :smile:

This first part is for Ken- the new pictures I've been seeing of the Swinetrek- can't remember if they were the final pics or not- have the regular starfield in the viewscreen. Can I take this to mean that the regular starfield default is in? Also, in the test pic on the Palisades website Daily Bit, what are those objects scattered on the left and right in front of the Swinetrek?

Also, someone refresh my memory- between the two of them, Statler and Waldorf come with the avacado from the Pearl Bailey episode, 2 tomatoes (one of which looks just like the one from the show) and a carrot. Which comes with which?

In the section on the main site it neglects to list the avacado; I wouldn't think it's been scrapped as we've already seen the sculpt of it.

Anybody have the picture or the link to it? Thanks.

Both of them have 2 tomatoes each. Statler has the carrot and avacado.

Got the word from Ken- Statler comes with 2 tomatoes and the Avacado, Waldorf with one tomato (a duplicate of one of Statler's 2, the smiley one I think) and a carrot.

Someone help me out here- do Link & Strangepork's waists move, and are Link's hands supposed to turn? And, of course, the MAMMA antennae question- which way? How do you fit them in there and get 'em to stay? Dang. This must be the Series 4 'issue'. That there's only one per series considering everything that could be an issue is staggering.

(unaudible cursing)

Link and Strangepork both have swivel waists and wrists. The antennaes go in thick ends out.

The Avacado was a little something 'extra' Ken added in for the fans after the initial accessory announcement for S6 - that's why the main site neglects to list it right now. It came later than the update.

Ken,

Just compiled the info you gave on S8 on the Palisades board before you announced it:

1. There is a new exclusive being sculpted that has never been mentioned before today to replace the Sweetums which was delayed from S8 time period. It is a TMS designated figure.

2. One figure has a book.

Sam's book of ethics?

3. One figure has a single accessory only.

4. One figure has 9 separate accessories.

5. One figure has a magnetic feature IN the accessories but not in the figure itself.

Oo, oo, I think I know this one- one I mentioned to you. Is this magnetic Muppaphones that stick to the table? While on the subject, how many Muppaphones will there be?

6. One figure has ball jointed elbows.

Phil?

7. One figure has an accessory that you can put other accessories into.

8. One of the figures has a very large accessory, one that will be a challenge to fit inside the blister.

9. One figure has an accessory that we are trying to work an interesting mechanism into.

10. One figure will cause a major discussion on the board when people find out what he will NOT have packed with him.

Better not be Marvin with no Muppaphones.

11. One figure would fit in nicely to an existing Playset display even though he wasn't really associated with that Playset.

Care to shed any more light on these, now that the cat's out of the proverbial bag?

Newsflash

Ken just announced the series 8 lineup

Sam the Eagle :attitude:, Movie Usher Scooter :wink:, Dr. Phil Van Neuter, Marvin Suggs, and an improved exclusive Animal :halo: in his standard outfit with bongo drums (placement yet to be determined). There was no mention of a playset, but you can't have it all. What do you guys think? Are you excited? I am! :smile:
