You do know that's a rather lengthy list, don't you? Another thing to consider is that as a customizer, he makes the figures he himself wishes to make. If he asks for opinions on which he should make next, that's a different thing altogether. Consider too, he shares his custom work with us out of joy and happiness in letting the other Muppet fans who would love to se these too to view his amazing portfolio of Muppet customs. That said, there is one way you can get him to make these figures... PM him and ask how much would he charge in commission to make "x" figure you want.

Hope this helps and please keep that in mind, as I'm sure he has a very busy schedule in pursuing his great Muppet customs.

Do you cast the sculpts you make out of sculpy though when you sell them to others? and if you do how do you do it and do any of your sculpts ever break?

Yes, every sculpt I make.
Once the sculpt is finished, I make a mother mold out of silicone rubber. The rubber gets de-gassed so there is no air trapped. Then you pour it into the mold box your making. Depending if it's a two part mold or a one, or a Matrix mold.
Once that rubber has cured solid, the original is taken out Which most times do NOT survive. Sad but true, thats why we now have the molds to make resin copies, that when poured is and exact copy of your sculpt only in hard plastic. Once the mold is ready to take the liquid resin, before it gels I place it in a Pressure tank squeezing the air bubbles out.
But to anser your question, Yes they 99.9% break when your remove them from the silicone.
