Who will release Muppet figures in 2007?

[The Count]

Well... I do recognize and think that should a figure line be offered in the scale you propose/champion would offer a potential for a greater character array Corey... But at that scale, some of the detailing work that set Palisades line apart from the rest of the pack would end up being sacrificed, at least for people like me it would. Guess that's why I'm a bigger proponent of the 6 inch scale as a starting point, though they don't all have to be that height, just so long as they're properly in scale with each other.

I was happy with the the Long-Haired version of Piggy. The Pigs In Space First Mate Piggy was pretty descent as well.

Not really the sculpt of the hair was bad, it was the COLOR. It was just a solid light yellow. That's adequate for kids, but that line was meant for collectors.

That's why i repainted mine and added proper eye lids. HUGE difference. Pigs in Space version was nice, but I don't think it was needed after I modified my EB exclusive. Oh, and the EB version was originally the series 1 regular version, but the EB exclusive rooted hair Piggy fell through and a new head was made for series 1 Piggy.

As for who might make new figures? I don't know, but I think it should hold off for a few more years. It's too soon. The fans of the first one are tapped now. We got a huge amount of figures from the Palsiades line too.

I'm hopeful Disney will start releasing a small scaler Muppet figure line. I'd probably be more happy than even the people who like the 6" line^^

I only needed Bobo, Bean, Sal, and articulated normal Robin and I felt that my Muppet Show figures would have been complete.

Now, all i have is the fantastic Super Grover, but MAN! I wanted Palisads to do Sesame Street.

What's the deal with folks getting the Sesame license for action figures and then going bankrupt or something? Reckon we're just not MEANT to have those figures??

Small scale Muppet figures

There would probably be a better chance of micro Muppet non action figure and micro bobble heads coming out.The figures that come in a plastic bubble and you get from those gumball machines.I think Tomy make them and they already have a license with Disney.The figures are about 2 inches tall.Is that too small for you?

Those cheap wastes of plastic that still cost a dollar? Yeah...

No seriously tho, if you go to the Disney store they have a lot of really cool figures based on all sorts of classic and current properties. I see no reason why they can't give the Muppets that sort of treatment.

If you saw the 2003 Jack in the Box fast food Muppet figures or the 1978 Fisher Price Muppet figure line, that is exactly in my opinion the sort of Muppet figures we need.

This whole 7" post Mcfarlane style has run its course. Do we really need every figure to be like a statue? I gave away all my Palisades Muppet figures, and I had virtually every one. Just took up way too much room. Way too much. I prefer smaller, smoother figures. Just my preference.

Sone of the capsule figures comin out of Japan of late have been very good actually. Still not works of art, but ok for collecting.
