General Muppets Palisades Discussion

[Aaron the Great]

i have just started collecting the muppet figures and so far have only got cabin boy's gonzo and rizzo,i am wondering which other figures are worth getting . apart from the main character's like kermit,fozzie and miss piggy

\

Depends, if there are certain characters you particularly like go for them. Personally, Ive strived to get at least all of the individual characters and any variants I like.(although Im still workin on it) As for just which ones are "worth getting" thats kind of a personal preferance. Aside from some sticky paint issues they're aren't really any figures that are downright better than others imo. Id just say look at them and see which sculpts and whatnot you like the best. Although since you've already got cabin boy gonzo/rizzo id say go for Capt. Smollet Kermit, Sam Arrow and if you have the money and want the variant, the ghost of sam arrow figure. Its really all comes down to which figures you like the most. Im sure you can easily get a full list of the line around here somewhere.

Er, for RyNo's benefit... The only lunchbox+figures that should be recognized as part of the collection are the following:
1 Lunchbox Kermit, the first Industry Exclusive release from Wizard World Philadelphia 2002.
2 Palisades Collector's Club sign-up lunchbox kit with GITD Koozebane Kermit.
3 Palisades Collector's Club sign-up lunchbox kit with Checkered Suit Gonzo.
All others were just a surplus of extra figures packed in a lunchbox wrapped with shiny plastic that Toy Fare/Wizard World tried to sucker us into buying. Yeah, there was an element of mystery and chase with the Tux Kermit... But when they did it again with the Fozzie and Gonzo, we knew it wasn't worth it.

*Should consider posting my own collection list sometime as well.

Thanks Count

I have the WW 2002 "naked" Kermit lunchbox and the other two you mentioned... I'd like to have the others tbh, but I'm not desperate. They seem to be harder to find than the White Tux Rowlf... I've seen a few Rowlfs for sale, but they were all for crazy money.

You should post your collection. It would be cool to see

[Mo Frackle]

Cool, Count. How much did you have to pay for the Sesame figures? Or were they gifts?

 

[The Count]

For 2HM and Guy, about $1600, for Oscar and Ernie $1800. Now consider that and do the math.
Would love to get the proto sculpt of someday though.

can u post pics of the SS figures?

 

[The Count]

Sorry, but I don't have any to post. Yeah yeah, I know, I've meant to do so for the longest time. Thing is I need someone to take 'em for me and then send 'em and then I wouldn't know where to post 'em.

 

[muppetlover123]

well you could post them on like face book twitter muppet wiki?

 

[The Count]

Yeah, except I don't have a Twitter account and won't get one, I'm not a Muppet Wiki contributer and I've pretty much walked away from Facebook.
