OK, I finally assembled a collection of Sideshow's Muppet busts. Got all of them except for Bunsen so far.

I just wanted to say that I think they are pretty **** good. I really like them. Yeah, you can quibble over likeness issues, but having dealt with the varying degrees of both subtle and major changes in the puppets over 25 years I can say that their take is a pretty good one.

Beyond that, they are just really good products. Well constructed, very good paint apps, really impressive sculpting. All lined up on a shelf, it makes me jones for the complete set and I hope they go all the way with these and do everyone they have planned.

Good stuff...if the prices are holding you back, I understand that. But if you can find a way they are really worth having in my opinion. Some of the best Muppet product I have ever seen, and through Travis and you guys I have seen quite a lot!

Ken,

I agree.

They all look fantastic, Although I am only keeping Kermit, Gonzo, Rowlf and Sam on the shelf for the moment.

Bunsen and Beaker will come out sometime, But Statler and Waldorf can stay mint and put away.

I dont think the Statler and definetely the Waldorf sculpts are too good.


see ya
