New pictures from D23 on Muppet Wiki...
New Sam Puppet
Huh, I take it back what I said about the new Sam Muppet. He doesn't look bad when you see him closeup like that. His "hair" is sticking out a little more like it used to, otherwise, he looks great!

Any closeups like that of Gonzo?

Cheers,
:smile:

Love the Janice look in the Bohemian Rhapsody photo! The longer, thicker hair looks good on her. :flirt:

I like the new Fozzie (though not too new anymore), Sam (looks just like Muppet Show Sam again with a nice sharp stern beak), Bunsen (In the youtube shots it looks like they fattened up his head again) and Animal (again, back to his muppet show season one hair). Gonzo is BAD and I really hope they don't use him. I mean, I can live with the face but the pupils are TINY.

All in all, this is one heck of a muppet day. I just pray Steve Whitemire will be part of all of this.

Edit:

I was wondering why they were doing the Bohemian Rhapsody video on youtube, but it seems there are a bunch of videos of puppets singing this. The muppets doing parodies of these youtube videos is just perfect and so well done and a lot of the youtube videos are reminiscent of muppet show skits.

Wow...muppets on youtube is basically the same as Jim Henson's InnerTube from the Jim Henson Hour pilot. Talk about a man way ahead of his time. This is the muppet show of the future he was trying to create, or at least the beginning of it.

I like how Sam Eagle looks too, But what happened to Gonzo's look?

You're right, His pupils do look small!

I knew Gonzo would make the cover of TMS season 4 DVD! They picked good picture of Gonzo too and I also like the idea of TMS logo being silver. :concern:

I also can't wait for the upcoming Muppet Youtube Videos!

The new Muppet Whatnot Workshop feature look AWESOME! Especially the Monster features! I can't wait to see or hear more about that.

Things seem to be going really good for The Muppets, I just hope we find out about what Steve Whitmire is doing.
