I read this earlier at the Palisades board, and I am still upset. I would love to have all of these figures so badly. It is so sad that the line must come to an end. :cry:

You know... Posted a reconfigured possibility of all those figures over in the threads at PT's forum.
Maybe the truly motivated and talented customizers will attempt all of this? Who knows.

I think some of these are wishful thinking and even if the line had continued I don't think all of these would have been made (especially the multipacks)

However, I'd have loved Sal Manilla, Bobo, Lewis Kazagger, Bean Bunny, Mahna Mahna and the Snowths.

This is exactly why I kept saying folks should buy the merchandise, because without consumer support, there's no retailer support, and that is the death of a retail line.

Mulch?!? Mulch would have been made? Whoa, we sure are missing out on a lot with the Muppet line closing... how tragic.
