    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    If these Gobo and Red figures don't have the same fragility issues as the initial release, I'd be tempted to buy them to replace my figures. Mine haven't broken yet, but I think it's just a matter of time. I wonder what is the hold up on the NECA Sesame Street figures. I've heard the licensor...

    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    A classic Mokey and Gobo with in-scale Doozers are up for pre-order. Bbts also has basic versions of Red, Wembley, Gobo, and Boober for $20. I'm very excited BFS is making a classic Mokey. It's also cool there will be some in-scale Doozers. I don't really want another Gobo figure, but having...

    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    Oh man, I hadn't even considered this. How many thousands of dollars am I willing to spend to buy hundreds of blind boxes for the small possibility one includes the likely unproduced figures? What will I do with hundreds of Animal purses? I think the blind box has been around for a while, at...

    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    I saw this blind box on Instagram and thought the packaging looked like DST's. It turns out Stylinboxes is also owned by Ad Populum. I guess the DST Muppets will live on in packaging design cannibalized by Ad Populum's subsidiaries. https://stylinboxes.com/products/muppets-mystery-box

    Naughty or Nice by Fresh Monkey Fiction

    Is anyone else crazy like me and ordered 9 of the reindeer? I like having a full set, but I think I would prefer the colors weren't so different between the 4 different reindeer. It's nice that each reindeer has a uniquely painted head (though that probably isn't obvious to anyone who isn't...

    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    I wonder if any of the DST prototypes will go up for sale? It would be such a shame if they were all just thrown away. It's such a bummer all around. In kinda good news, BFS said to keep an eye on their socials for wave 3 of their Fraggle figures. I'm hoping that means they get shown before the...

    NECA - General Thread

    Is there any way to avoid this from happening? I understand a company's reluctace to invest so much into a line without some evidence figures will sell. But, you're right, that probably leads to reduced sales due to some people holding out. I guess pre-orders help address this issue, but...

    Naughty or Nice by Fresh Monkey Fiction

    I assume the next round of Christmas figures will go up for backing soon, right? I'm curious if they tweak Mrs. Claus from the prototype they showed at SDCC. Maybe the one at SDCC is a young version, and they will also solicit an older, Grandma version. I'd prefer a more traditional looking Mrs...

    Wow, the hat and piano work great. Nice! Is that the Star Wars Bean Bunny? It looks pretty good with the Palisades figures.

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    On one of their socials, Boss Fight responded to a comment that they would be announced soon or in the near future. Who knows what that means. Maybe before the end of the year? I'm also surprised they are planning to make a 4th wave because I assume this line isn't super popular, and they are...

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    The head looks a little weird to me in the first promo photo. I think it's because the angle is not how his head is usually drawn. The Jon figure looks good in the other promo shots. I'm pumped to add him to the Garfield and Ode figures we should be getting any day now. Can I stick with just...

    Diamond Select Toys is Shutting Down

    DST filed bankruptcy separately from Diamond Comic Distributors. DST's bankruptcy filing report notes their debt was higher than their assets. It's just check boxes in broad dollar values on the form. It was something like assets <$1 million, and debts $10-50 million. I don't remember the exact...

    Diamond Select Toys is Shutting Down

    I assume they didn't have funds to make steel molds for new figures. My understanding is that is the biggest single cost in production. It's curious which figures were prioritized over the last couple of years and which ones sat in production limbo. I would have thought Annihilus pre-orders were...

    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    I don't think I'll be burying my DST Muppets in the backyard, but I am actually hoping NECA makes some updated, Palisades-style Muppets. At this point, even I have to admit the DST line is done. With Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock figures fitting in scale, I'm more focused on the Palisades line...

    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    I was really hoping, at least, Sweetums would make it out. I guess I no longer need to wonder if any of them are coming. Although, there's still a chance NECA resolicits them, right!?!? It's healthy to never let this go, right?

    Ghostbusters General Thread

    Could they do an Ecto-1? I don't know if Mondo has made any vehicles in the past. I also don't know if cost would be too high. I would certainly be interested in a cartoon version of the Ecto-1. As a kid, I used to play with the dish soap one all the time. Having one with moving wheels would be...

    Boss Fight has waves 1 and 2 of their Fraggle Rock figures on sale for 20% off. I hope this means they'll be announcing/soliciting wave 3. I'm curious who will be in the wave, besides classic Mokey.

    JADA TOYS General Thread

    Nice timing. Toy Migos posted this interview with Juhn yesterday. Juhn said Fred and Barney should go up for pre-order before the end of the year and will ship sometime early to middle next year. It sounds like it's a bit up in the air if or how they'll continue the "line" because getting...

    McFarlane DC Retro (Batman '66, The New Adventures of Batman, Super Friends)

    Yes! Plus, Mad Hatter? My guess is that Super Friends is the focus of the retro line now, and Batman 66 is done. But, I would love a final wave of Batman 66 figures. Keeping my fingers crossed!

    Most are interchangeable. Olive Oyle has a smaller peg than the medium sized male characters. Toar and Bluto have bigger pegs.

    Muppets (including The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock)

    Apparently, Frazzle was put on display accidentally. It seems like someone mistakenly grabbed the Frazzle prototype instead of Herry. I haven't seen any new photos of the display today. From what I've seen, Herry, Grover, and Mr. Johnson are not on display. I wonder how many more characters they...
