Hi there, I've been a Muppet Fan forever. I have every Palisades figure, bar 2, and the DST figures, as well as many I have customised over the years.
I'm hoping you guys can help apparently some of you have discussed similar issues - I commissioned a full body Janice figure from a chap. Until I paid he was responsive and professional. I paid £3000 (about $3750) and now I'm worried - he only rarely responds to message (usually after I get angry) the figure is 8 months late and I'm worried. He regularly self promotes and his reasons for not responding and the delays are always that he is just far too busy. The quality of his work is second to none, and he has shared a photo of a reasonably complete Janice - which he said was mine when I asked him. I then found the same photo had been posted a year ago. I very much want to believe him but wanted some advice as I don't know what to do. I have picked up some unsavoury comments on the individual which I have had to dig for as his page/company has changed names. I have tried to make a complaint to the American authorities but they need a business address or something tangible. Can you help - or do you know who may be able to advise. The chap is Mike Lisa and the current company name is MJL Puppet Design.
I really hope you may be able to help
