So i remember seeing sketches on the Palisades site a long while ago for a figure based on the Jim Muppet. (Did that Muppet have a name? Was it from TMS?) It was planned to come with a mini Kermit puppet. Is this my imagination or was it real? What are the details? Accessories? Dates?

The Jim Henson Muppet will be coming in 2004. It will be an exclusive but Palisades hasn't decided where yet. Any way, it will be available through their collectors club. It looks great!

It doesn't come with a Kermit puppet now, that was decided against.

CC members will get a discount, and they want to sell it at a Muppetfest, type of place.

I'm looking for the proto picture, it was revieled at WWChicago.

He looks GREAT! But...Jim was a vegitarian. Would he have worn leather? I can't picture it.

Keep in mind the figure is modeled after the Jim Henson Muppet (from the Country Trio) not necessarily an exact likeness of Jim himself.
