Ok well i think Phil did a pretty perfect job and i kinda agree with everything there. I also totally dig his extra ideas like Kermit in the trencoat, First mate Piggy, levers or buttons that make Animals eyebrows move. If at all possible - there really has to be some kind of extra draw to these figures even if it's just rooted hair but more would be good - i don't think people are worried about more articulation points unless they actually do something worthwhile.
My list, seeing as Beaker is gonna be first, and that the figures will follow the previous waves of sculpts already made is as follows :-
1) Beaker - Not my choice for first but it's happening so no point in adding a different character here.
2) Animal - Another character with lots of popularity with non-fans, and with moving eyebrows and things you can really do with the extra detail.
3) Vacation Fozzie :- I think i'd like to see Vacation Fozzie here rather than the normal one. The extra accessories and things would look great large and it's such a colorful figure it would look great supersized. A cloth shirt in the red Hawian colors would be PERFECTO !!!!!
4) Swedish Chef :- Another big favorite with non-fans and the whole Chefs outfit will look good supersized. Would be good if his Chefs uniform was cloth rather than plastic.
5) First Mate Piggy :- I do think Piggy would be boring as a regular outfit large figure but this gives it that little something different and is gonna be a big draw for Sci Fi nostalgic fans too.
6) Reporter Kermit :- For the same reasons as Piggy more or less. I think it'd be crazy to do this line without doing a Kermit - it's like the Muppet law there's always a Kermit.
7) Gonzo :- Another main character that always gets done. I think the extra detail on Gonzo's facial features (ie:- nose) would be cool. This definitely should be a regular Gonzo rather than a daredevil outfit.
8) Janice :- I think there kinda has to be an Electric Mayhem character and you can go to town with the colors and things on this, and hopefully rooted hair. I picked her over Dr Teeth as by this time he would be long gone and forgotten and the regular size Janice figure would be in peoples minds. Must come with guitar for it to be worth doing !
9) Sweetums :- Everyone is gonna love this because it means Sweetums really can finally be a larger than life character.
10) Pepe :- A good character to end with, and of course the one everybody will be waiting for. Definitely a regular Pepe rather than Tutu or anything else.
Hmmm doing this has made me slightly more enthusiastic about the line if the fans suggestions are actually taken on board - looks like Jamies done well building up interest for Palisades by creating the thread, Muppet Central should start up a PR company !
