I voted Walter. I know a lot of people don't care for him, but I have a soft spot for the 2011 movie, and I've always connected with Walter on a personal level, lol. :wink:
I've got more appreciation for Walter now he's not being shoved down our throats

I love Bobo the Bear because of his gruff, faux-sinister voice, sounds perfect for an "In a world..." commercial spokesman. He has that ironic, deadpan humor that I really admire, and I think he was a perfect fit for the Muppets.

I really love Johnny Fiama and wish they would bring his character back. Of course he really works best with Sal who is very much a Brian Henson character that would be hard to recast, but I just loved Johnny so much. He's also one of my favorite Palisades figures as well, so I am use to him being without Sal. (yes, I know I said I had plans to make a Sal figure and maybe some day I will, but I just can't bring myself to start).

Sadly we will probably never see Johnny again, but at least I got to hear his voice in Happy Time Murders via the character Phil Philips.

Plus Bill Barretta stated that both the Johnny and Sal puppets have deteriorated.
