[tomahawk]

I'm going to stay overly optimistic and say we get more than a five year run. And I will post a list which I think would be a good line-up.


Kermit
Animal
Fozzie
Robin
Gonzo
Rizzo
Miss Piggy
Rowlf
Scooter
Waldorf
Dr. Teeth
Statler
Sam The Eagle
Floyd
Pepe
Zoot
Beaker
Janice
Bunsen Honeydew

There has been a lot of concern in making the larger figures because of the size. Every time I hear that concern I start taking about the giraffe stuffed animal I saw at FAO in New York and confidently say, “oh it can be done.”

This is AWESOME. I can't wait for my 1:1 scale Sweetums!!!

So thinking of my list...
Kermit (since he's already being made)
Animal
Fozzy
Gonzo (with Camilla!)
Piggy
Rowlf
Sweedish Chef
Beaker & Bunsen (can't have one without the other)
Sam
and then finish it off with the Electric Mayhem

This list is too big isn't it?

If given the choice between a small character (Pepe, Rizzo, Robin) and a large character, I'd pick large. Only because I would worry that they would take up a slot that a more popular character could/would take. But if they release the small characters as a pack (example...
Rizzo, Pepe as a pack, Robbin, Camila as a pack) or at the same time as another large character, that'd be great.

I was thinking the same but if they did have to do each small character (i.e. Rizzo, Pepe, Robin, etc) on their own then maybe add something with them like penguins... we all love penguins!

Fozzie or Rowlf for 3rd.

And congrats on the job Travis! I'll see you at Toyfare if you're there!

I heard about the new Kermit (and next up ... Animal) replicas from Cards Inc, the UK distributors at the UK TOY FAIR. It's good to know now, that such a dedicated group of people are behind them. I wasn't too sure about the idea of this one at first. Nice to see Trav involved too!

Welcome to our side.

I don't know who I want 3rd. Animal is a good 2nd choice though. I suppose Fozzie or Gonzo would be a logical choice. I hope they do not go with Piggy 3rd though. Piggy would be a hard sell, especially since she would look like a doll. PLEASE keep Piggy for last or at least go with a smaller run at first.

I would love to see Fozzie or Gonzo as the third one and Rowlf or so for the forth one or so.

Kermit (First)
Animal (Second)
Fozzie or Gonzo (as the third)
Rowlf or Scooter (as the forth)

I need a Rowlf for our piano .. and Animal would be cool with a set of drums... But we NEED a Rowlf..

I have some news...woo-hoo, I beat Kevin to posting the news!

Well, actually, we decided that I would be the one do it. But regardless, the spotlight is mine again! Mwahahahaha!

Sorry.

Here we go. The Kermit the Frog Photo Puppet Replica will be shipping in...





WAIT FOR IT





June of 2006

I know that there has been speculation and rumor. Some people were saying March. But there you have it, the official date from the Master Replicas Calendar. This will be the summer of the Replica Frog!

I love the line-up ideas that everyone is chiming in with. And it's nice to see some more old friends, too. (Yes Artie, I will be at Toy Fair. Booth # 5313. STOP BY!!) Luke, Kevin, everyone...it truly is nice to be back talking to you guys.
