[Ignohippo]

But they're still coming with the director's chair, right?

We don't know if they're even still coming at all.

Well, I contacted their facebook and supplied this image of the shop I manage in order to coax some information.

Hey guys, I bring you OFFICIAL news from EFX regarding Rizzo!
Found on the front page of Action Figure Insider: www.actionfigureinsider.com


"[FONT=Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial]Upcoming Disney-inspired pieces from eFX include an 18-inch Rizzo the Rat Photo Puppet ($379, or $329 for D23 members), which celebrates the enduring appeal of the Muppets and will be available for order shortly. It’s a detailed and accurate replica of the full-size, three-dimensional “photo puppet” used to represent favorite Muppet characters in photo shoots. Fully articulated, the eFX Rizzo the Rat is created based on reference patterns and materials supplied by Disney’s Muppet Studios. Rizzo’s dressed in a T-shirt and a letterman’s jacket that features real suede-leather sleeves and a “Ratpanic” embroidered patch on the back. Worldwide, eFX is limiting the edition size to 1,000, and each piece will come with a numbered plaque and certificate of authenticity."

Hmm.............................interesting.

Well that's good news, but still no ETA on Rizzo or even the pre-order. We do have a price! That's good. Still, I'd like it to be under $350 without having to join something. We'll see.

I have just received a press release, but I see the news has already broke.There was no news about the muppet replicas, just that effective immediately, eFX will offer special discount to members of the D23 club.It also mentioned that the Evil Queen's heart box from Snow White will pre order on May 4, so we wont see Rizzo pre order before then.

Not a bad US Dollar price at all. It sounds like they have brought down the price compared to what the UK distributors had been told. Maybe they realised they needed to stay on a bit more of a level with what Master Replicas had been doing.

Just looked into it. A D23 membership costs a minimum of $35. So even with the discount to members, you'd only be saving $15. Granted there are a few other perks with the membership through Disney. But for those that were considering getting one just for the discount on Rizzo. It's not a huge deal.

Nice to hear they're still alive over at eFX. Does the price announcement mean they sorted out the fur then?
