I would like to point out that one idea that I mentioned, which is going into the homes of the main characters, I had this idea before Muppets From Space was released, so if a Muppet Boarding House was at the theme park, then individual homes would be unneccessary.

I also had the idea that, if you stayed at a hotel, you could be loaned video copies of every Henson production (but up to three at a time). Of course, with being able to watch every henson production you want for free, then you might not want to go on the rides and see the attractions. (I had this idea before I knew that most episodes of Sam and Friends were not saved)

I also thought about having Muppet Money. Kermit would be on the one dollar bills, Miss Piggy on the fives, Fozzie Bear on the tens, Gonzo on the twenties, Rowlf on the fifties, and Sam the Eagle (or maybe JP Gross) on the hundreds.

I have been wondering... why stop at dollars? There can also be Sesame Street coins! Big Bird on the Pennies, Ernie on the Nickles, Bert on the Dimes, and The Count on the Quarters.

I wonder if it would be too tasteless to have a Doc Hopper's French Fried Frog Legs Returaunt (or stand) at the theme park. Of course, I'd rather have a Don't Drop Inn grouch resturaunt. Plenty of toss salad to go!

How about an Electric Mayhem stage where the EM could perform? They could use radio controlled puppets and recorded voices from TMS of Jim, Frank, Dave, Richard, Jerry and Steve.:zany:

I don't really like to ride on roller coasters, but these would be some cool ideas for some muppet roller coasters....

One would look like it is partway inside a big cannon. An animotronic of Gonzo and maybe one other character (either Kermit, Rizzo, or Scooter) would be in the front. The other character could tell the customers to put their seat belts on while Gonzo would be against it, preferring to ride a roller coaster without his seat belt. An animatronic of Crazy Harry would be at the bak of the cannon, and it would look like the cannon is shooting the roller coaster out. Maybe animatronics of Statler and Waldorf can be in the last seat, commenting on the ride.

Another one would be a Muppet Labs-themed roller coaster, with animatronics of Bunsen and Beaker in the front. Obviously, Beaker would be scarred. Bunsen could say that he built the roller coaster. Or better yet, this could be an indoor roller coaster, with some video images and movements so that the audience would feel like they were on a really imaginative ride. The feel of a roller coaster would be there, and the video images would start out like a regular roller coaster, but then it would switch to different locations. First, the roller coaster would "fall" and take you uinderground, then it would get blasted into the sky, then it would land on a track in a different country, then it would lead to the inside of a super market, and then it would take you back to where you started.

There could also be a smaller Fraggle Rock roller coaster, with animatronics of the fraggles, maybe an excited red or Gobo and a scared Boober.

There could also be a gift shop called "The Golden Age of Jim Henson". This shop would sell merchandise relating to Henson productions from before 1969. Itmes would include Sam and Friends t-shirts, cans of Wilkins Coffee and bags of Purina Dog Chow, Sam and Friends plush toys (maybe a vintage Kermit, Sam, Yorrick and Harry), Sam and Friends pencils (with small toys of Sam, Kermit, Harry, Yorrick, Icky Gunk and Moldy Hay as pencil toppers), a Yorrick ball, PVCs of the Sam and friends characters, a set of notebooks (promoting Sam and friedns and Wilkins Coffee), posters, toys of early commercial characters (Wilkins, Wontkins, La Choy Dragon, Freddie, Tommy, Mac, Nutty Bird, and Sour Bird), and a storybook adaption of Tales of the Tinkerdee. There would also be a teleision inside the store that would show these classic programs, including complete Sam and Friends episodes, Timepiece, Youth '68, The Cube, Muppet Meeting Films, the Wizard of Id pilot, Tales of the Tinkerdee, Land of Tinkerdee, the Cinderella pilot, and sketches from The Jimmy dean Show, Our Place, The Ed Sullivan Show, and The Today Show.

i would love to wear a miss piggy costume.
My point about having full body costumes was because obviously even if I could buy a floyd costume, even for me, miss weirdo, it would be disturbing without a mask:sing:

Did anyone mention having live stage shows you could get invided up on stage?

I thought of something that would of been so cool! An arcade with Muppified versions of clasic arcade games, like Asteroids, Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. Plus, there could be Muppefied versions of newer games, like Dance Dance Revolution and the drum machine games! That would be so awsome!

I just thought up a rully fun idea! Muppet Labs Candy Store. There would be twisted versions of normal candies, like Crazy Harry's Bomb Rocks (Pop Rocks) and Muddy Mosquitos (chocolate-dipped gummy bugs). Plus, there would be sour liquid mix stations and sugar candy filling stations, each with a Muppet twist. Some of the flavors could be: Mayhem Mango, Fer Sure Fruit Punch, Heckler Huckleberry, Moi Marshmallow and Wocka Wocka Watermelon. All of this would be in a setting like the Muppet Labs, and classic, plus new Muppet Labs sketches would play continuously on televisons around the store. Think of all the fun one could have there!
