I think the DST Piggy figure is pretty spot on. The Palisades Pigs in Space is good, too, except her hair is too brown. That said, I'm excited to see what NECA makes and hopeful it will be the best version so far.

Is that true for most of NECA's lines? Is their Sesame Street line exceptionally slow, or is that the norm for them?

NECA's post is back up, with a slightly different message to announce their Muppet figures. I am really excited for this line and very curious how it will go. Will wave 2 be Piggy, Rowlf, and Animal to knock out the big six? Maybe they'll include a less well know but wanted character like Bean...

The early series of the Palisades figures really are lacking in articulation, which unfortunately includes most of the main Muppets. It will be nice to have updated versions of those characters. I remain partial to the Palisades line becausr I don't see any way the NECA line could get as deep...

Agreed. Having Scooter isolated next to Ernie really shows the difference in body size beyond just height. So far, the difference between the lines hasn't been enough for it to bother me. I just hope the new NECA Muppets don't look too wonky next to the Palisades figures, and the future Sesame...

I added some more comparison photos to the end of this album and noticed a few things. First, I now agree with you that the NECA figures do seem to be about half an inch taller than I would expect for the characters. In the full display, I don't notice enough for it to bother me, at least so far...

Wow! This is great news! I would love updated figures of Kermit, Piggy, Rowlf, Fozzie, Animal, Gonzo, Bunsen, and Beaker for the Palisades collection. Could this mean NECA will continue the DST line?!?!? That's not totally unrealistic, right? Whatever their plans, I am so pumped! Hmmm, I may...

I initially thought they were a little too tall, also. After putting them on display with my Palisades figures, I now think they scale pretty perfectly. Ernie is slightly taller than Scooter and shorter than most of the other Muppets, which feels about right to me. Bert and Count are also taller...

The solicitation states Big Bird is over 10 inches tall. The Palisades Sweetums is 10.25 inches. I'm hoping Big Bird is at least a little taller than Sweetums, but I'm fine if they're similar height (which it seems is the case). I'm happy with the scale in the photo.

Someone on FB speculated that the unannounced figure could come out at Target's Haulathon in March. This seems like a fair guess to me because it helps explain the long delay between Count and Big Bird releases. Maybe NECA was producing the next figure to be ready for March. NECA could reveal...

Big Bird is available for pre-order on the NECA site. It's $59 plus shipping, which is less than I expected. Do folks think it will show up on bbts and ee, too?

In his interview with Veebs a little while ago, Trevor said Oscar would be coming out later in 2026. He also said that a previously unannounced character is coming after Big Bird. Since he mentioned Sesame Workshop wanting more characters to be represented in the accessories pack, I'm guessing...

The Instagram posts says, "Coming to theNECAStore.com and your favorite NECA retailers on 1/21", which makes me think the figure will be available to purchase on Wednesday.

And definitely don't blame the people who started the fire or fanned the flames.

Thanks for the name correction. I'm not sure why Oxblood is often selected from the many big guys Popeye boxed, but it seems like he's usually the pick for merch. Personally, I think Kid Mustard is a more interesting character because of the whole spinach eating thing. I agree the line will...

The only information I've seen is that Popeye figures will be shown 'later'. That was the response BFS sent me when I asked about Popeye reveals showing up during their advent reveals. I hope we see them at some point in Q1 2026. My guess for the wave is pretty much the same as you. Alice and...

Diamond Select is (not really) back! Ad Populum is apparently using the name Diamond Select for its revamped distribution processes. I doubt this is any indication the DST products will come back. It is just more weirdness to add to the weird decisions by Ad Populum. I don't understand why they...

I'm also expecting Big Bird to cost at least $80. Bbts has the other three figures at around $40. From the interview, it sounds like it will come with two heads and the teddy bear. Does anyone know how tall the figure will be? I think the Palisades Sweetums is 11 inches tall. Big Bird is taller...

Apparently, Big Bird is next and due out early 2026. After that, it will be a figure that hasn't been shown yet. I wonder if it's Cookie Monster to give them another popular character to raise interest in the line. Maybe they're concerned a less well-known character, like Herry, won't sell well...

Trevor was interviewed by Veebs. The Sesame Street talk starts at 1hr 35min. It's nice hearing the line isn't dead, although Trevor is tempering expectations a bit about the speed for future releases.

I saw that posted somewhere else, too. Maybe on Reddit. Though, I thought the poster said they were just joking. I could definitely see Sesame Street Workshop not being happy with their characters being shown in such a way. But, I don't know how widely any of the figure photography is reaching...

Thanks for this suggestion! I've been stumped on who to use to make Hilda. I'll have an extra Gobo that I think will work. I just hope the joints hold up to the customizing. Now where are those NECA Sesame Street figures?

I pre-ordered the 4 basic Fraggle Rock figures and plan to use the originals and new series Mokey for customizing, assuming the joints don't break. Currently, I'm thinking Cantus, Convincing John, Large Marvin, and the World's Oldest Fraggle. Is there another classic Fraggle character I should do?

Yeah, seriously. What is taking NECA so long with this line? Since the next set of figures are supposed to be out in Q2 2026, I think they will go up for pre-order soon. I hadn't heard before Thanksgiving. That obviously didn't happen, but it's gotta be any day now, right? BTW, there is a...

Fred and Barney go up for pre-order at noon EST tomorrow! Finally! I hope there will be more cereal/food mascots in the future. In an interview with Toy Migos, Juhn implied they were broadening out the line.
