Most obscure TMS character you'd like to see as a figure

    So, as series 5 and 6 apparently are shaping to look even more obscure(And thats a good thing for us fans!)
    In a perfect dream world, which ultra obscure TMS guys(or Muppet universe in general) would you like to see?
    (I mean if Robot Rabbit and Lobster Banditos can be made by Palisades, the possibilities are endless)

    Mine, tho JHH related would be Digit. Ive always wanted to see a Digit figure as he would just be the coolest Muppet figure.

    As for obscure TMS related: Behemoth, the 2 Bossmen, and
    DEFINATELY a Frackle!(blue or green, or both!)

    He isn't all that obscure, but I really want to see Uncle Deadly. He's such an interesting looking Muppet-- I'd like to see what Palisades could do with him.

    Plus, if they make an Uncle Deadly, my husband will stop going on about how much he wants one. ;)

    Ok, it's not exactly Muppet Show, but I would love to see any of the muppets from "Hey Cinderella" -- especially the King and the monster who says "Radish" -- Splurge? Did he ever make an appearance on TMS?

    As for the regular series, all my favorites are pretty much already planned. However, Wayne & Wanda would be great--as long as they each came with a great accessory that could fall on top of them.

    The guy that appeared third from the left in the "Baby goin' to Rio" Musical Number.... HA HA HA HA!!! Just Kidding! I'd like to see Digit. Maybe even some characters from Dog City, the Henson Hour Special?

    Besides Uncle Deadly (which I want), I'd love to see Bobby Whatever his name was with his baby orchestra! That would be too funny.

    I'd also love to see the Carrot from the Gilda Radner episode (one of my favorites).

    Oooo, Oooo, what about Emmit Otter (Thats my all time favorite Muppet Special. I still cry every time I see it).

    And last but not least. The Muppet Crew dressed up from the characters in Alice in Wonderland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Guys,

    Hey,
    Splurge never appeared in The Muppet Show , But he did appear in Sesame Street.

    It was Bobby Benson's Baby Band.

    I would love to see Annie Sue, Lips and Nigel (The Conductor) all from The Muppet Show.

    See ya
  7. matleo Active Member

    my top to obscure I'd lik to see are Uncle Deadly and Lips. I think ken had said at one point (on the old board) that Uncle dealdy was a strong candidiate for '03. I'm still really pusing for Lips but I doubt we'll see him. It's weird cause he has such a cult following but really he's just kind of the nmuppet trumpet player. he sang a verse of one song on theshow hadl iek one line on the show, and had one line in TGMC (which I didn't even realise was him until recently) besides that what does anybody know about him? So he's not really a great 'character' per say, but there's something about him that you want to watch (maybe it's the working fingers) Anyway, yeah he's the guys I really want.

    Too Many Choices

    Since Sweetums is already in the works. I would have to cast my vote for Uncle Deadly. I really liked the monsters. I also would like to see variants based on the Star Wars episode, or the main figures as superheros. Wayne and Wanda would be a fun exclusive.

    Even a Pig dressed as a viking, though it probably would not sing "in The Navy".

    I can't believe someone beat me to the carrot...
  10. scarecroe Active Member

    Mahna Mahna (with Snowths) and the Jim Henson Muppet (as exclusive if necessary).
  11. Sam T Eagle New Member

    The obsure I would Love to see are
    Nigel being my 1st pick, Mildred, & George and also like the idea of Wayne & Wanda coming with stuff that fall on them!
  12. Joe New Member

    any or all of the talking vegetables, I always thought they were neat, and my mom keeps asking me if they're going to make the talking houses, which I vaguely remember, but don't think they'd make it as figures (maybe as a backdrop to a playset, but weren't they their own skit?)
  13. Gorgon Heap Active Member

    Well, I think I'm sort of self-appointed chairman of the "We Want a Thog Figure" committee, but other than him I'd like to see Uncle Deadly, Mahna Mahna and the two Snowths, and for more obscure, my namesake Gorgon Heap (if he were big enough to fit another figure inside of him; of course, that could damage the other figures) and/or Behemoth, and Wayne & Wanda (who are a lot more popular in this thread than I thought they would be).

    It would be too cool if there were a collectors' exclusive Season One series- George, Mildred, Hilda, Wayne & Wanda, maybe an At the Dance playset with Mildred or a chorus girl, or a moonlit gazebo for Wayne & Wanda. I'm gettin' a little excited now so I'll just wrap this post up.

  19. Jara19 New Member

    Pops is my first choice, but Lewis and Mahna Mahna are close seconds.

    Re: NO excuse for not making them!!!

    I think the normal Link will be normal Pigs in Space Link, while the variant will be Link in an alternate "remote" space suit (I'm guessing he will end up looking something like Picard when they had to walk on the outside the ship in "Star Trek: First Contact").

    It would be cool if Spacewalk Link came with an air hose to connect to some port on the Swinetrek playset, since I really get into...ahem..."Linking" toys together. :)
