Do I really want to know what gorilla goo is?

 

[Drtooth]

GORILLA GOO ROCKS!!!! It's actually the glazing that leaked ovewr it's packaging in the Muppet Labs playset!

GORILLA GOO, BUBBLE GUM ROWLF AND MINIGOBO FOREVER!!!!

 

[Luke]

Yeah 'Gorilla Goo' seems to be becoming quite an affectionately known Palisades trademark - maybe they oughta sell it as a brand of soda ! LOL !

Remember, don't forget to shake your Gorilla Goo!

hate to disagree, but she's right....well sorta right. They really have no way of knowing unless it's in their wareouse. You can ask them to check the computer to see if it's in their warehouse. If it's not there then they really don't know. They're not psychic, there' no message form Palisades saying "congratulations, we've just sent you your Muppet figures! they should be their on the 15th!" It's just not possible!! I work at a KidsRUs and believe me when I say.....the employees CAN NOT KNOW WHAT IS COMING IN UNTIL IT IS IN OUR BACK ROOM! It's not possible! So let's lay off the TRU employees a little ok? A lot of 'em are good peple who work very hard and get paid miserably.

One other thing, if you're going to ask someon to check the computer, it's best to go to customer service and not someon on the lfoor. if you go to customer servi e it means you'll get an employee who has been trained there. So you're woman on the lfoor may be tellingthe truth....she may have no way of checking the computerand depending on how long she's been there, she may not even stop to consider that an option. She not an idiot...she may just be new.


Anyway, let's just chill out a bit ok? I said this on Series 1 and I'll say it again here and probably again when series 3 rolls out. I want these figs as much as anybody (Fozzie and Floyd are two of my all time faves) but wether there are figds on the shelf or not, tommorow the sun will come up I'll get up and feed the cat and life will go on. So please, we're almost there...be patient. Rememebr it just pieces of plastic (albeit awesome-shaped pieces of plastic, but pieces of plastic nonetheless)

--Matt

Matt, when I questioned them I was told that they can't look up anything at all, including whether or not it's been received in the warehouse ... and this was from two people behind the customer service desk standing next to a computer which they never touched.

I don't have a problem with being patient while I wait for the figures, but I do have a problem with poor customer service. I didn't intend to attack Toys R Us in general and I'm sorry if I offended you. Believe me, I've worked my share of retail jobs and I know how hard most people work for little pay.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. My fear has been put to rest.

Though Walker Boh and Matleo had the right notion,that it's not the employees fault, I have to say a lot of people working at these things aren't so qualified and well basically a Goo-less Gorilla can do this job. I'm saying this because I had my fair share of rude people working there! Plus, I tried to get a job at one and they never called me back! Drat.

But I rully blame the company! I mean, I saw this ad (during Recess today, DON'T JUDGE) in which they will have all this Cabbage patch Stuff out by Saturday (or something like that). The company cares more about the rebirth of some ugly fad from the 1980's (Heck, even the SMurfs were cuter than those) than the Muppet line. I mean, if one of us were to choose between an ugly baby doll or a Crazy Harry (or Gonzo, Fozzie, Floyd...) I mean, the choice is stinkin' obvious!


CRAZY HARRY PLAYS WITH ELECTRICITY AND DOLLS...HEEE HEEE HEE HEEE!!!!!!

 

[The Count]

Hey, Luke: So even if the figures aren't at the stores on 15 November, I gotta' have something to do in the meantime until we approach the date. Even if the figures aren't there, at least I had fun with a small creative endeavor to whittle away the time. PS: Gorilla Goo might make a nice cola and maybe I'd like its taste, but nothing can make me dissolve my loyalty to Figgy Fizz!

 

[Drtooth]

Well, Count, it looks like your letter countdown (which Rocks, I must say!) can't quite be used in New England...unless of course you use the extended alphabet from the Dr. Seuss classic on Beyond Zebra (in which the Doc invented new letters). It's going to Stinkin' take forever for those things to ship to toys R Us. Unless it was Yu-Gi-Oh or Harry Potter, in which case they'll send for some super sonic speed to deliver them the next day!

Man, I hate Priority shipping!
