Found this guy in the shelf just now with Fozziddler... since I was using a Tux Fozzie for a custom back in December, I decided to customize his Chucky accessory while I was at it. Forgot I never took a picture of it because I didn't feel like dragging out the right backdrop while boxing stuff up for Christmas.

And I bought two figures off of eBay recently for grand total of $12.86 (most of which was two shipping costs.)

One was a Superhero Scooter with none of his accessories. The other, from a different seller, was a regular Scooter minus his glasses. Midway through removing the SuperScooter glasses to glue onto the blind one, I thought, hey, why not leave them removable, just for fun?

I still stand by the statement that you should try and make Fozzie's Mom.

Can't take credit for that one... he's a recent acquisition via eBay.

He came in a Disney Parks-exclusive set of five "Muppet*Vision 3-D" vinyl figurines. Each one of them is sculpted as a different filmmaking job; Bean is the makeup artist, with a big powder puff in his left hand and a makeup kit in his right.

Also includes Kermit/director, Piggy/diva, Fozzie/script supervisor, and Gonzo/clapper loader.

Really neat set. I had never seen it before, but as soon as I saw that auction, I had to have it for Bean. Got it for a good price too; I was the only bidder.

Probably because so few people know about it.

I took some comparison photos of the Muppet*Vision 3-D PVC set versus the vinyl figurine set, but I can't get them to upload on my regular site. Hopefully that will get fixed soon.

Also took several more photos of Saltine and have some other items I'll be photographing.

Six inches, huh? I don't have a Janice handy, but I've got a ruler in this desk drawer and that looks just about the right height.

The pin elbows really do make it look like a Palisades figure upon second inspection.

Anyone got a shot that shows the feet? Hospital booties would be ideal for what I wanted.

I could probably make this figure work for both Janice and Piggy in a pinch... but do I want to invest in $30 worth of Freddy Kruegers?

Speaking of which, that reminds me... somewhere I've got the old Maxx FX Freddy Krueger doll, and he's about 8 or 9 inches tall. I wonder how he'd look as a 'guest star' in a Muppet diorama?
