I wonder if they use Statler and Waldorf, are they gonna use the cartoon voice actors or are they gonna use Dave and Peter?

These are just short videos so I don't think they will include Statler and Waldorf

I think that since Eric Bauza is dubbing over Eric Jacobson, his Fozzie voice is a little off here compared to the regular Muppet Baby series. What do you guys think?

Surprising how they made real-life Muppet versions of the Babies, which is very nice to see. I especially loved the boy trying to boop Fozzie on the nose in the first vid. :smile:

It's possible they could have been made while MB was in production and used as reference points for the CGI.

I really wish we had more info on who the puppeteers are besides Matt and Eric, so we can give them the credit they deserve.
