Hmm im kinda happy they photo puppets.
I would have no use for real puppets, i want to let em pose and just stay there for display.
I agree with you Andi, Im one of the few who is actually pleased that these are photo posers rather than puppets!

It's an interesting point about the not being real puppets. I must admit when I first saw them in a shop window I wasn't sure since before that point I'd never known photo puppets existed/had never thought about it. But at the end of the day they're Muppets and I just had to have at least one of them in my room for that reason alone.

I agree workable puppets may sell better, but if I had an actual puppet it would be wasted on me since I'm so useless at any character voices.

My sister was in Pasadena yesterday. She sent me a pic of a Reporter Kermit that was in a window display there. He looked fantastic, just like the EFX Kermit. I called her this morning and asked what that was about. She told me it was a window display for a shop and he was interviewing Rizzo and both were in director chairs. More to come...

You can also see Rizzo's foot a bit. Sorry I don't have a full Rizzo pic. It was my sister taking the pics. She obviously doesn't understand.:wink:

She didn't happen to catch the name of the store, did she? Or could this be where eFX headquarters is located? Curious minds want to know!
