Wow, you're poser is actually better than the one from the compnay. looks like the old Kermit we all love! Howm uch is it to make and at what price would you sell one?

So I guess "MR" doesn't just stand for Master Replicas anymore, because starting in 2006, they'll be offering Muppet Replicas!

Master Replicas, the creators of licensed prop replicas from such licenses as Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien(s), and Predator will soon be offering authentic Muppet replicas.

Early last year, Master Replicas aquired the license to create Disney replicas. On the slate so far has been Cinderella's Glass Slipper, and coins from Pirates of the Caribbean. Coming very soon are some great replicas from Chronicles of Narnia, and the Rocketeer.

Now, being shown to the public for the first time ever, is Master Replicas newest addition to their Disney licensed replicas collection: Kermit the Frog!

For those of you not familiar with Master Replicas, they are the top dogs when it comes to replica merchandise. You're going to be able to count on Kermit being a top notch replica, the closest you can get to owning a real Muppet. I dont have any more details, other than it will likely be part of the 2006 product line, given that they are now previewing it.

I'll keep you all posted with new info, pricing when I can find out, edition size, etc. I'll definitely post a review once it's released.

Kermit will be the be all end all of licensed Muppet merchandise, and I can guarantee you wont find a better item elsewhere. I'd definitely recommend jumping on board when ordering is available, as Master Replicas items tend to sell out very quickly. I fully expect this to be an ongoing line, pending the success of Kermit, so if you ever want to see a Gonzo or Animal replica, make sure to jump on board and support this up and coming line!

Oh, for a minute there I thought you were saying "Muppet Replicas" as in puppet replicas of the the muppets. Silly me.

Just had a look at Master Replicas blog that they updated on Dec 22, and Animal is no longer on the list!? Just Kermit for 2006.

Hmm...too much argumentation about the creation of these perhaps? Or, just not enough time? Maybe if Kermit sells well enough they'll sell Animal after all?

I'm just looking forward to my Mokey from Sababa!!

I think the major element is time.

I know the fellow making the prototypes (perhaps he even lurks here), and I know he wants these to be spot-on... not only in his prototypes, but from the manufacturer as well.

When I visited his shop a month or two ago, he didnt shw any signs of working on Animal... he was, however, completely engrossed in getting the Kermit proto up to snuff.

I look forward to seeing the final result... and hope that the sales go well enough to justify a Rowlf replica!

What? No love for Gonzo?

 

[spcglider]

UTMOST love for Gonzo.

Heaping, steaming, squishy, peuce-colored, cornucopian love for Gonzo.

Lets hope they do them all. Under license.

Yeah, but I want puppets, not posers!

Can you imagine how big a Fozzie poser would be? He'd need his own chair!
