I stopped making Buffy customs for a while, so I moved on to another line. Muppets . I never thought to post them at BtVSfigs, so I decided to post them here. I doubt most of you will recognize what I've made, but I'm not surprised. Either way, here's a few of my pieces.

OMG! These are just way too cool. Yeah, I wanted to get into the Muppets line a couple of times but by that point, the line was ending and I felt like there was just way too much stuff to go back and try to get, with some of it reaching ridiculous price points already.
Plus, I already had a Buffy collection going and I also collect WWE figures, so I try to keep myself in check everytime I think of brancing out.
Personally, I love that Scarecrow Kermit the most. I think the sculpting you did on the overalls is just way too cool. I love the hay coming out of the bottoms of his pants, too!

Thanks, Matt. I was in the same boat as you. I got started with the line back in March 2006 (18 months after the line had died), but I managed to get a collection I was happy with for a decent price. I'm still missing a few I'd love to have (Sam, Scooter, Rowlf, Backstage Playset), but I'll take what I can get coming into the game so late. Statler and Waldorf arrived today, and they are truly works of art. It's so sad to see Palisades go . At least they left some goodies behind for my custom fodder . Thanks for the comments on Kermit. He was the most sculpting I've ever done on a figure, especially since I started with a "nude" Kermit. I plan to have TIN thing Gonzo and Cowardly Lion Fozzie done very soon

These are so cute!!! The Ms. Piggys are my favorite. Are they figures and you sculpted the clothes/hair? It's great work!! Keep it up! What was the movie that had that big baseball diamond. I used to love that one. You should make a custom from that one!

These are adorable! I love the Muppets. Have you made any customs of Bean Bunny? He's my fave.

These are great John! I've not seen that much of the Muppets before, the shows/movies etc, but they're a great bunch of characters who are very versatile to customizing! The possiblities are endless, can't wait to see what else you have in the works Kermit's definitely my favourite of what you've done so far, the sculpting on those clothes rock, really, and the painjob is awesome too
