Ten Favorite Muppet Products of All Time

[BlueFrackle]

Guys,

Ok, here is mine...

1. Sigma Mugs. Especially Gonzo.
2. Kermit and Fozzie Sigma Bookends
3. Of Muppets and Men: The Making of The Muppet Show
4. The Muppet Movie Soundtracks (All Of Them)
5. The Muppet Movie DVD's (All Of Them)
6. Fisher Price Plush and Puppet line
7. Jim Henson: The Works
8. Rowlf and Sam Busts from Sideshow
9. Franklin Mint Miss Piggy 2000 Doll
10. AT&T Kermit Phone

The Sigma mugs are just the most fantastic items. They are so classy,
And the likeness in them are wonderful.

The Kermit and Fozzie bookends have the same quality as the rest of the sigma line. You can see Fozzie struggling to hold up the books, While Kermit is just sitting there holding them up with one finger, Without much effort. Just like always.

Of Muppets and Men: The Making of the Muppet Show, Well do i need to say any more?

The Soundtracks are fabulous, There is lots of great songs, fun songs and emotional songs. You can really feel them too.

The Muppet Movie DVD's. All three of them are spectacular. Its just so great to have them available to watch so quickly, With such great quality.

The Fisher Price Plush and Puppet line are probably the best we have ever seen. The Kermit is just dead on. The Piggy puppet is the best ive ever seen, Animal too. And i always loved having a Fozzie puppet. And Scooter is great too.

Jim Henson: The Works. A Great book, Not as good as 'Of Muppets and Men: The Making of The Muppet Show', But still fantastic.

Rowlf and Sam busts. Sam is standing to the left of Gonzo just looking at him, One of these days i think he is going to talk, He looks so real.

The Franklin Mint Miss Piggy doll is the best doll i have of Piggy, Hopefully I can get the Enesco dolls to stand next to her.

AT&T Kermit Phone the likeness is perfect, and its so nice to see Kermit sitting back in his chair. Its also great to know that Jim had one of these too.




There you have it folks...

It makes for a better list to cite your favorite soundtrack and favorite Fisher Price plush instead of citing the entire line. Just makes it more interesting. I could have put all the Palisades figures at number one, but listed Gonzo as my favorite. The Kitchen set almost made the list, but if it had, it would have been seperately numbered.

LOL! That's still three puppet. You crack me up, Warrick. I love those old FP puppets too. They have yet to make a Piggy that good - either in figure, doll or bust form. I remember taking it to my first day of school as a kid. Yes, we know that I'm strange.

Jamie,

Ok, The Fozzie puppet. When i got that puppet i just could not put it down, Then when i got another one my Mum made it into Emily Bear. They are so great. I love them !

 

[Gonzo]

I remember taking it to my first day of school as a kid. Yes, we know that I'm strange.

When I was a senior in high school, I took her as my date to an awards ceremony where I got "Best Actor in a Comedic Role." It's one of those statewide things. Guess it was fitting that I got it. And took her as my date. I was busy pining away over a girl who was with another guy anyway. I got her later. And then we broke up.

The End.

 

[frogboy4]

LOL! I always brought a beautiful girl to school functions to the shock of my school mates. However none of them could measure up to Miss Piggy. (Had to say that in case she's listening)
