The woman I asked in the store last night said that they didn't know when they were coming in, and they weren't even in the computer system yet. (Of course, she said all this out on the floor without going to check the computer. I never know if they really know what they're talking about, or if they're just telling me something to make me go away.) Her only advice was to keep checking back.

Hey, y'all, check out the Palisades Daily Bit ... they put up a couple images of Rowlf, including a sitting one. Thanks, Ken! :big_grin:

Here are the first three entries in my countdown:
26. Delly Monster visits the zoo where she soothes a zebra by playing music from her zither-shaped Z.
25. Little Bird wears a yamaka and swings a yellow yoyo from his perch inside a Y-branched tree.
24. Sherlock Hemlock expertly examines an x-ray of a skull and crossbones aided by an X-marked x-ray machine.

The more letter scenes like these that I post means the less I have to wait until Series 2 arrives home to the EBX stores at Puerto Rico, and then to my home and collection.

they're just telling you something to make you go away.

well, depending on the store at least...but the series 2 figs are in the computer already in my EB. Series 3 isn't yet, though....

Series two has been in the TRU computer system for over a month!

if you don't have the SKN #s (which I'll get and post tomorrow) all they have to do is search 'muppets' and series one, two, and both playsets come up

You know what is the most annoying part? If this were YuGiOh, or Power Rangers or something that little kiddies like, TRU would be falling all over themselves to try to put thses things on shelves and ship them the day they came out.

Then a week later they begin a looooooong stay on the shelves.

I'm mean! What do you expect?

:big_grin:

And I'll be driving to get the repaints!!!!

And as everyone suspected, the TRU reps did not know what they were talking about... The gentleman I spoke to today said that the earliest they would hit the warehouse would be next Thursday... He actually had a clue about the whole port strike issue, etc.

But hopefully next week then right?

You know, i know of a nice small toy store, and they sell a lot of nice ,expencive toys. i think when tux Rowlf comes out i'll bring him there and ask they guy if he has any doll house piano bench that rowlf could sit his dupa on, maybe i'll buy two, but when reg Rowlf come out i would hope he would come with a bench and and up right paino. plus i'd probaly pay 15 to 20 for one little bench, so maybe not.;-)


Zack)Rowlf the)I Don't care of rowlf looks like bubble gum now, that's no reason to chew on him!:smile:Dog.

I really liked the pictures of Rowlf. He looks great and I am excited to see how the finished product looks. I guess it is too late to add a bench with piano. Although I was thinking of this small observation:

Don't get me wrong... I think it is wonderful that Rowlf can sit, but I was thinking that he would have to sit away from the piano even if he had a bench, because of his legs sticking out straight. Unless somehow his legs would slide under the piano? Does this make sense. It would be great if he had articulation in his knees so he could sit in a regular postion. Oh well, I am probably off on a tangent!

Any Rowlf figure is great, bench or not, sitting or not! Rowlf rocks and I am happy that we can soon buy one!
Maybe nekkid Rowlf could have articulation in his knees, if it is not to late or too difficult.

it might make him look funny..that's the main problem..ruin the lines of his leg...

but I know what you mean..sitting he'd have to have a pretty low bench..I was actually thinking an adjustable stool would be better...

but then again, I might just have him stand, as that's cool too...

I dont' know, I jst can't wait to get him, or any other muppets! Mmm..muppets :smile:
