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

We need to get Bills All Day over here. Don't think he popped up over on the previous boards either. That said I never knew if he was a Buffalo Bills fan or was just sick of paying bills all the time.
 
and if you watched the recent Mayhem series, Lips is all over it!

Hopefully summer!
I never really cared about Electric Mayhem, but I absolutely loved this show. Without a doubt the benefits Muppets release in years.

Also, a Muppet Babies release would be amazing! I still lament that Palisades never made it to the finish line with these.
 
No judgment, Muppet Babies is great, but you're missing out on a few great TV shows and a dozen or so movies! Sweetums, Robin, Uncle Deadly, Pepe the Prawn... all are pretty big characters in at least one of the shows or movies, not to mention records and storybooks. Lips and Lew Zealand... are maybe a little obscure, but Lew has a great scene in Muppets Take Manhattan (I honestly can't recall any SPECIFIC Muppet Show scenes), and if you watched the recent Mayhem series, Lips is all over it!

Hopefully summer!
Any idea when Pepe and deadly will ship?
 
Went to my closest Target Friday. This store sucks for Haulathon stuff and for collectibles in general, but I work from home and needed to get out of the house for a while. I was absolutely shocked to actually find a Haulathon shipper, and with the number one item I was looking for, Count von Count. Bert, Ernie and Count are a great start to this line, and the next figures can't get here soon enough.
 
I just found the same thing. I haven't been to a Target in a while and happened to be near one after spending the morning helping a friend scrape/sand the bottom of his boat to prep for painting. I got the Count as well as Pee Wee. I also saw the Ben Cooper Batman and Joker so I picked them up too. I'll get around to opening them tonight or tomorrow.
 
Oh man, I wish I knew about this forum earlier. I'm happy to be finding it now, even though the Fwoosh is back up and looking good. There's lots of exciting Muppet figures news that my wife is sick of hearing me talk about.

Are folks having any issues with joints on the new Fraggle Rock figures? So far, mine seem good, but the joints are so small I still worry about breaking them. It seems like the joints were lubricated out of the box. Overall, I'm happy with this wave and really excited for wave 3.

The bankruptcy sale of Diamond Comics and affiliate companies, including DST, seems to be really messy right now. I hope things work out for the best for the employees. At least, I think either buyer will retain employees and continue figure lines over the short-term. I'm feeling more confident we'll get Lips and Lew. Hopefully even more. Recently on a YouTube interview, Zach mentioned Bobo and Walter as a potential future two-pack. Given the lack of merchandise for Bobo, I think Muppet fans could get really excited for that set.
 
Cool what's the recipe
I made George from a Bunsen figure, which I resculpted and repainted. I also sculpted the mop. Next up is Mildred, which I am making from Beaker and should be done in a couple weeks.

Looks like the Alliance Entertainment purchase of all Diamond companies has been accepted by the courts. I hope that works out well for you, Zach, and your colleagues!
 
Does anyone know what's up with the Count figure on the Target website for Haulathon? It shows up on the week 3 drops at the Haulathon website, but then I can't find it in the Target App when I click on the link.

I think the Alliance purchase of Diamond was finalized today. I assume the first order of business Monday morning will be starting production of Uncle Deadly, Pepe, Sweetums, and Robin.

Does anyone know if Boss Fight Studio is doing any streams this year to announce upcoming figures? With the wave 2 figures being better than wave 1, and the classic Mokey figure getting teased a couple months ago, I'm really eager to see what's next.
