Agreed! They could really cash in on this now with the anniversary in full swing. I SO want videos of the panels and especially Muppet Show Live.

I emailed Creation about it about a month after MuppetFest and never heard back. I think it's about time I sent another request.

Who's up for bootlegging MuppetFest`03? :stick_out_tongue:

Just excuse me for one moment but i'm having this vision of you riding on the back of a Greyhound to Muppetfest. People - If you will insist on bringing large dogs next year please make sure they don't poo poo on the puppets !

I wonder if puppeteers will sign their figures. That would be cool, but it may be asking too much, huh. A signed figure would increase the price greatly - like I'd ever sell it!

It would be SO COOL to see the figures being signed by the puppeteers - i think that is a definite on the ol' 'wish list'.

The puppeteers were so generous and happy to meet the fans last time, I can't imagine they'd refuse to sign anything. I'm sure we could get signed figures. We just need the right sort of pens.

Last time my daughter had a Muppet picture we were getting signed. Unfortunately it did not have a single Jerry Nelson Muppet, but Jerry was as a nice as he could be when we saw him in the museum and he signed the picture without even mentioning that it didn't represent his work.

Well i hope the Henson dudes are told they MUST sign it personalised with the persons name - otherwise i can see a lot of scalpers finding their way to Muppetfest.

Great solution, Luke. As true fans, we want the autograph for our collecton and personalising it would mean more to us and would make it weirder to sell. Weeds out the bad eggs.

I would MUCH rather have someone autograph something to me PERSONALLY!! I just don't see myself ever buying an autograph.

I bought Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, Jack Haley, and a few other autographed photos of Wizard of Oz stars (that I could afford)! That was cool.

I'm searching still for a decent priced autographed photo of Ray Bolger signed "The Scarecrow of Oz" since that was the title of an original Frank Baum book.

My autographed photos that I have from the Muppets are signed to ME! I just wouldn't want anything less.

I think we're allowed to boot-leg now, right?
