LAST UPDATE - 5/31/05.  One of my favorite lines from the last few years is the Muppets by Palisades.  I am a completist with this line, which for me means one of every unique figure at least.  I also have a complete set packaged, and pretty much a complete set open, and also have a number of the package variations, like blue box and red box Kitchen set.

I also have a number of pre-production items from this line, and if you're looking for more info on them, check here.  Like I said, I have what I consider a complete collection, but there is one figure I still may hunt up - the second version of Adventure Kermit.  The problem is that I'm extremely color blind, so picking out the difference in pant color between version one and two is pretty much impossible on my own.  The difference between one and three was much more obvious, and so I have them packed away.

Oh and yes, that also means I have all the lunch box figures that Toyfare offered.  Yes, when it comes to a line that I'm a completist on, I get very weird.

Here's a shot of the main four shelves.

Above those shelves, much higher on the wall, is a single shelf that's also all Muppets.  This shelf helps with the oversized megas.

On the left side of this shelf, there's the very cool wedding set.  I've added a second shot of that set, since it's one of my favorite sets in the whole collection.


On the right side of the shelf, there's nothing too exciting, just lots of regular Muppets.  There are a number of Rizzo's though, including a pre-production version with the whiskers attached differently.

The top shelf of the main bookcase has both the Backstage playset, along with the Kitchen playset.

The second shelf has all the Fozzie's, Gonzo's and the Pigs in Space set.  The packaged Gonzo in back is one of the planned Target exclusives.  When the deal fell through with Target, the Gonzo was used as a show exclusive.  But they did package a handful of Gonzo's to show to Target, and I've added a second shot of it because it's another of my favorite items.


Next up is the Lab and the Electric Mayhem, with all the corresponding characters plus some.

And finally, the bottom shelf has a hodge podge of figures, including both Holiday Kermits, the Toy Fair Rowlf, and my packaged Swedish Chef.  Why do I have a packaged Swedish Chef out on the shelf?  What's so special about him?  The last photo will answer that question!


And that's the Muppets, at least for today!  I have a couple things that still need to hit the shelf, like the checkered Gonzo from the Collector's Club tins, but I'll do my best to keep the page updated.

Somehow I managed to forget my entire display of all the Sideshow mini-busts in my last update, so here goes:
