I take film, tv, etc, and draw them as if they appeared on the cover of a manga magazine.

For the Muppet Show, I went with a different approach, and reimagined the series and characters as if they originated from traditional Japanese theater and entertainment, being Noh, Kyogen, Kabuki, Bunraku, Rakugo, Sarumawashi, Manzai, Sumo, Geisha and Taiko drumming, spread across 3 covers. 

Noh: Gonzo, Rizzo (based on characters from Kurama-tengu,) Kyogen: Beaker, Honeydew (based on characters from Bo Shibari,) Kabuki (Aragoto): Fozzie, Camilla, Kabuki (Wagoto): Sam, Bunraku: Scooter (lead puppeteer,) Pepe (stagehand,) Johnny Fiama, Swedish Chef, and Rowlf as puppets, Rakugo: Kermit, Sarumawashi: Sal Minella (based on the Japanese macaque species,) (Early) Manzai: Statler, Waldorf, Sumo: Bobo, Geisha: Miss Piggy, Geisha w/ Shamisen: Janice, Taiko: Animal.

I made him in February and its my best puppet puppet! And JEFFY to

since no one likes my fakemon, i decided to talk about LISA BUCKLEY and her role as BETTY LOU, and her DOLLY whose head always pops off

Hello! The Great Muppet Caper is my favorite soundtrack from a Muppet movie by far, but unfortunately the versions of the soundtrack available on YouTube are pretty low quality (I tend to be pretty particular about my audio haha). This might be a long shot, but does anyone have this soundtrack on CD and would be willing to rip it directly and share it with me so I can listen in the best quality?

...in the talent and professionalism of his disciples.

Dave Goelz could not have been kinder at NYCC this weekend in signing my LP.

Good afternoon! I am currently parting with my entire record collection and I still have this Muppet Movie record available. If you’re interested please message me!

The Muppet Movie - Original Soundtrack Recording (Light In The Attic exclusive scooter yellow vinyl) $39.99

I recently purchased the Jim Henson Muppet Palisades figure and read that he originally was supposed to come with a puppet Kermit, but because this was the Muppet version of Jim Hinson, the license holder didn’t want a puppet holding a puppet lol. I stumbled upon this picture while researching. So the help I need is finding a little Kermit puppet to fit on this figure’s hand. I would prefer cloth, but I’m open to all suggestions. Thank you!

Edit: this is the best community! Nobody has even commented on any of the others I’ve posted to lol.

Whenever I think of things like The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth and The Storyteller, it reminds me of how Jim desperately wanted to create these beautiful fantastical worlds. Despite putting his heart and soul into doing that, each of them was a financial failure. Dark Crystal and Labyrinth were box office bombs while Storyteller got stuck as the second half of a weird Muppet Show reboot.

As Jim got older, he wanted to move past the more comedic Muppet stuff, but he was unable to. He was only able to create a handful of serious fantasy productions before his tragic passing.

One of my friends recently called Jim Henson a "comedian". While I get where she was coming from, I don't personally believe he would've wanted to be remembered that way. As time went on, he dipped his toes into more serious writing and each time it was amazing! People just weren't able to appreciate it until after he was gone.

This came up again when I saw a video earlier today of a guy exploring a Henson museum tour when he encountered the majestic Thought Lion puppet. I literally thought to myself that if that was me, I would break down crying in it's presence! I know it's just a puppet, but knowing the history of it all, that lion represents such a bittersweet thing to me.
