I don't think theres a general negative vibe, but obviously people know what happened with Master Replicas so are wary. I try for a balance between realist and fan myself. I think marketed right, with the right balance between accuracy and price point these could be hugely successful.It isn't just about that, it's about the whole negative vibe that always surrounds these kind of situations. eFX has only just announced the news they will be continuing the line and already people are ready to jump in and say they won't be successful.
Apparently, Rizzo should be the first off the line from eFX. Here's hoping we won't be left naked!I hope Rizzo is made first, prefereably in his modern "Muppets From Space" outfit!
I agree completely but maybe, with the problems that have already been faced with Fozzie, they have better ideas for the pig. I am still curious to see how the Fozzie prototypes from China look. How bad could they be?I do think the line-up would be way better subsituting Fozzie for Piggy though. They would be the two higher price ones and Fozzie is the one people have been buillding up for, just look at the poll.
That's partly my point about Piggy. Some fans consider the TMTM or later being the "classic" Piggy where I think she was best during season three of TMS.I am excited about Miss Piggy! If I can afford it, I am sure as heck going to buy it! My ultimate dream though would be Janice. But I think Piggy would be awesome- as long as she is the later Muppet Show Version, and not the early version, or the Muppets take manhattan version- or any later one. I'm sure I'd still want her, but I love "classic" Piggy. And Pepe! Love him!
Hey as long as she does not have brown hair then Ill be happy.There is no real reason they shouldn't but let's not forget that Piggy has had many changes and face-lifts over the years so not everybody will be 100% pleased with the final result, however she looks.
That wouldn't be a bad look but I remember her best with longer, almost mousey coloured hair. There is a great photo in one of the annuals where she is wearing her signature purple dress and gloves.Hey as long as she does not have brown hair then Ill be happy.
I would like her to look a bit like the Piggy pictured above the guide tab, what do u think
Thats partly the problem with her like you say, one person likes one version, one person likes another version. And then you get the "cool" collectors who don't have the same level of Piggy fan'ishness as we get here who just won't buy a girl/pig.That's partly my point about Piggy.

So maybe they EFX should pick a poser that has not changed much....SCOOTER.......sorry but I couldnt resist!LOLThats partly the problem with her like you say, one person likes one version, one person likes another version.

It may well have something to do with how hard it sounded like Fozzie was to make in China - though he is just a bear when it comes down to it. I would have thought the Pig and Pepe would be more complex.
