For me I'd love my own Electric Mayhem - especially Zoot... but seriously I can't think of anything cooler than having my own Dr. Teeth, Floyd, Janice, Animal and Zoot!

I'm definitely gonna try and get Kermit and then support the rest of this line as much as my bank balance will allow me too!

Oh boy, I'd better start saving up. This line is looking better and better! Thanks, Kevin, for the candor and the progress report!

Rowlf is by far the easiest larger figure to tackle at 1:1. He is also one of the oldest Muppets and one that was always close to Henson. I also have a concern that the line will fizzle out if we release the “best” Muppets first. I want to be working on this line for at least the next five year! There is still some time before we decide the line up so please be very vocal about this.
Ha ha! Are you kidding?!? Rowlf is THE best Muppet! :smile:

I'm giving you a virtual hug right now man, a big one. I almost cried when I read your first post about Rowlf possibly being the third in the series. You guys are doing some great work over there, please don't let any negativity slow you down!

Anyhow, thanks for joining the forum and giving us great Muppet news! My vote: ROWLF!!!

:smile:

I'll be destroyed if we don't get Fozzie.

I can totally understand the idea of holding off on some of the major characters to keep the line going - that was Palisades approach with their series, but action figures are a lot cheaper than these posers are going to be, and while some people may have bought additional figures in the line while waiting for their favourites to be released, I'm not sure I can see this happening with the posers. So my vote is to release the "big guns" (Kermit, Fozzie, Animal, Piggy, Gonzo) first so we can be assured of getting them...and then go for Rowlf...cause I love that guy too!

Wow,

Its only one day later, and already some more great news.

Window box!! Whoppee!!

And WOW, what a great price, for a great item.

I totally understand what your saying about the release order, and the importance of the less popular characters being included, to keep the line alive. Rowlf will be adorable, as they all will. Just as Fozzie bear will be, I wanna touch his ears!!

Does anyone have a link to a piccy of the Actual Rowlf Poser, from top to bottom, I cant remember seeing one of him from top to bottom??

Of course I remember the wires in the Bendy toys. Living in the UK, where they were made, I was given a Kermit and Miss Piggy foam rubber Bendy Toys for my first birthday, after several years play the wires had broke and stuck through the rubber, but with the materials available today I am sure this will be sorted, and now at 29 yrs old I guess I wont 'Play' with a poser as much as I would have back then!!

A 5 year run on the posers, fantastic, I need to start saving, for the posers and somewhere bigger to display them all. I am mvery pleased though that the posers are 1:1, I think if they were downsized, it wouldn't seem right, and it wouldnt be an exact replica.

Excellent work, and enjoy your noodles Kevin!

Wow, how weird that Travis is now working for another high end collectable company doing a muppetl ine. Freaky.

Anyhoo, Are there plans for each character to be priced differently or would say a Rizzo replica cost the same as a Thog replica (exaggerating of course)? But really, should we expect Kermit to price the same as Sam or will price be a character by character thing?

We see KErmit being done in puppet like fabric of coursem but will other characters be done in their puppet material? Like will Piggy (if done) have a foam head? Gonzo a foam nose?

How will outfits for certain characters be handled? For example, Gonzo has had all kinds of "signiture" outfits. How will decisions about outfits be made?


Sorry for all the questions, but knowing that these things are really getting better made me all excited, The last pic I saw was good, and tweaking after that should be amazing! The figures were good, but this is a whole different level.

I vote for Rowlf, too. He's the only other character with a history nearly as long as Kermit's.

:stick_out_tongue:

Of course, if you were ever able to do the Sesame Street characters, then you know who I'd want!!
