Fozzie is holding him?

When I saw him he was in a bunch of props. Is he in that scene more than once?

Fozzie's holding him during the "Magic Store" finale, with all of the Muppets.

Oh, right.

Here's another little Robin thought. After Robin had a giant part in MCC (I think) at Tiny TIm, why was he moved back to just walking out of the pub in MTI?

That would've been cool, but I guess there wasn't really any place for Robin other than a cameo in Muppet Treasure Island (hey, at least he was in it :smile: )

The reason Jim Hawkins was not a muppet was because it is a coming of age story and the muppets are ageless and far too well known. It made much more sense to have a person play that role coming in as someone the audience does not know.

I know, I know. But Robin needed a bigger part!

Hmmm. I missed Robin's cameo in MTI. I'll have to check for that again. Actually, my copy was taped off of ABC, so maybe they edited something out. I don't know.

Speaking of which, was Robin even in MFS? :confused:
Yeah in the early scene where they're eating breakfast and Robin goes to Kermit and says "Say Uncle Kermit, what're you gonna do now that you're on vacation?"



:cool:
