    Toy-Pix!

    I hope Phillip doesn't mind my posting this here - if so, simply delete. Since there were a couple autographs that folks here might be interested in, I wanted to let them know. I started a concept awhile ago called Toy-Pix. The idea is that fans are becoming more and more aware of the...

    Rainbow Connection Kermit Review

    The final figure in the Muppets series from Palisades is the Rainbow Connection Kermit. Dedicated to the memory of young Cooper Perry, the small boy who lost his life to brain trauma caused by meningitis, this Kermit in the classic pose is the perfect way to finish things up. And no, I...

    Uncle Deadly review

    Tonight's review brought on mixed emotions - elation for finally having not just one but three Uncle Deadly figures, and sorry knowing that this ride is almost over. Uncle Deadly looks great in all three paint schemes, and which one you like best is probably going to be very much a personal...

    Cabin Boy Gonzo/Rizzo review

    The Muppets line is winding down to a quiet end in 2005, but the ride isn't quite over yet. Like a roller coaster with one last, hidden hill, there are several great releases this year. One of those is the Muppets Treasure Island versions of the Cabin Boy Gonzo and Rizzo, released at the...

    Super Grover review

    Not sure if this belongs in the action figure board, or the Sesame Street collectibles board... This weekend was the Wizard World show in Los Angeles, and Palisades new tour figure for 2005 made his official debut. It's Super Grover from the new Sesame Street line, complete with phone booth...

    MWC's Picks for Best/Worst of 2004

It took a whole lot longer than I had expected, and it's a long read, but check it out in the new feature and let me know what you think...

    Muppets series 9 review

    The last four weeks have certainly seen a tidal wave of Muppets merchandise - the Backstage play set, the Jim Henson figure, the Santa Chef, Sweetums, three versions of the exclusive Animal, and now series 9. This series, perhaps the last regular series of figures (although rumors abound of a...

    Sweetums review

    How sweet he is - Sweetums, that is! If you're a muppet collector, you've been waiting for this figure for what seems like an eternity. Thankfully, the wait is over, and the omgcnfo.com exclusive is now shipping. He's one of the best figures of the year, and he might be the best figure in...

    You can pick up the Santa Chef on ebay: Santa Chef ebay exclusive This is actually the second listing. They sold about 105 in 40 minutes or so, then closed that auction and started this one with another 500 BIN. Michael MWC

    Muppets Back Stage playset review

    It's a huge month for the Muppets, with Sweetums, Jim Henson, Santa Chef, series 9 and tonight's review, the Back Stage play set all hitting. The set is a tad expensive at fifty bucks, but it's huge with lots of pegs for hanging tons of older accessories. It also includes the signature version...

    Mini-muppets wave 3 review - all of them!

    The mini-muppets might be cool, but sales through bricks and mortar stores were only meh. Palisades took them to their own on-line store to release series 3, and if sales of the series are strong enough, they'll most likely do the same for series 4. Series 3 consists of Kermit, Doglion, Beaker...

    Animal 2 (all of them) review!

    What's better than a Muppets Animal action figure from Palisades? How about a resculpted version, with added articulation and new accessories? Better yet, how about three versions of this new version, each with a different paint scheme? That's what we got this week! Tonight's review covers...

    So Palisades helped set a record yesterday...

    As you might guess, I get a lot of packages. But yesterday was a record day, all due to Palisades. I came home to find THIRTEEN boxes on my porch. I can only imagine what the mailman thought. See, my club order showed up - two of each of the new mini-muppets, two of the tan pants AK, and...

    Super Beaker review

    The Mulder and Scully review sure generated a ton of discussion, both good and bad, and I suspect that tonight's review of the SDCC exclusive Muppet Super Beaker will do the same. No, sir, I didn't like it. Yes, the sculpt looks good, and the paint ops were decent (but tacky). No, the big...

    Mini-muppets now in the Palisades store!

    The first two single carded mini-muppets - Kermit with banjo and Doglin - are now available in the Palisades store. CC members should buy them through the club page, since they'll get free shipping. Hit it! Michael MWC who would love to see many, many more mini-muppets

    Muppets series 8 review

    I love dem Muppets. This line, from Palisades, continues to be one of the most imaginative, creative, and finest overall lines on the market today. They've just released wave 8, consisting of Dr. Phil Van Neuter, Sam the Eagle (normal version), Movie Usher Scooter, and Marvin Suggs and his...
