Animal and custom stage

My first post in the new direction. This is Animal and the Electric Mayhem stage set.

The Animal figure come with the set witch includes stage and drums 6 spotlights, 2 speakers and 2 drum sticks. All amazingly sculpted and painted. The pics i have are after i have modded the lights and stage sign.

The lights are LED X-mas lights. I measured the LED's against a drill bit to get the right size and drilled into the back of each light and round the stage sign and VOILA!! stage lighting.

I'm going to add small but loud speakers in to the speakers so they will give out Muppet songs.

This was a super quick and easy mod/ custom bit to finish up my Electric Mayhem set. the next post will show you how to do a two piece mould for things like action figure of Lego spares.

So until next time ENJOY YOUR TOYS!!

ZOOT! nuff said

There's not much to asy about this muppet really eccept he's a homeless jewish sax player who if he was anymore laid back, he'd be asleep.

Zoot is from series 3 of the Palisades Muppet show figures. Zoot has 13 points of articulation. Zoot comes with a "25 years of the muppet show" figure base, sax case, 2 part sax, magnetic hat and music stand. As per usual both paint and sculpt are spot on. As with all members of Electric mayhem zoot has a variant version that has a blue glasses instead of clear a silver sax and a brownish/tan top.





next I'll be looking at Janice the lead guitarist AND I'll be doing a FREE toy give away!!





untill next time......... Enjoy your toys!

Mr Peppers Electric Mayhem Band

Hey! The frog is not around....... time to lay down some serious sounds. That was the first time I had heard floyd speak and knew he was cool.





Floyd is from series 2 of palisades Muppet show figures. Floyd looks like he came straight off the cover of The Beatles Sgt Peppers Lonely Harts Club Band (Hmmmmm I wonder???). Floyd has 9 points of articulation, and comes with Bass, amp, magnetic hat and "25 yrs of the Muppet show" figure stand.


As allways the sculpting is perfect as are the colours. Floyd has a variant figure that has a blue top instead of red, green pants, green amp and a white bass. The only thing i dislike about Floyd is that the amp is attached to the Bass. As with all things the muppet line is now finished, I was gutted not only because the figures are the best figures in many a decade but also because I always wanted a Floyed with closed eyes for that ultra cool look....... ho hum! Any got a spare I can buy to do a custom??


Next time I'll be looking at Zoot.

Till then....... Enjoy your toys!

It's Time To Light The Lights

Sorry its been so long between posts but I've been very busy with a new job, new car, kids etc.

This post is about one of my favorite toy sub sets ever. The amazingly sculpted Electric Mayhem Muppet band from Palisades Muppet figures. I have the complete set and will be shortly (HA!) working on a custom diorama for them to be displayed in which will hopefully look somthing like this.

I'll also be working on a display/shelving system to display my other muppet figures that will hopefully look somthing like this.

So, lets look at the members of the band.......

DR TEETH

Dr Teeth is the laid back founding member of the band, the key board player and lead singer. His character is mostly based on a jazz musician called Dr John

This figure, as with all the Palisades muppet figures is fantastically sculpted. There are 7 or 8 points of articulation. His colours are show perfect. There is a black and white stripy top variant but i like the show colours best. Although he has limited poseability, he always looks good behind any desk or piano. The good Dr comes with a "25 yrs of the muppet show" figure stand, his keyboard and his trademark hat. Dr Teeth is from series 1 which is before Palisades started using magnets to keep hats on but its not a big issue it just means that his hat is a little loose.
All in all a great figure.

Next time I'll be lloking a Floyd Pepper.

Till then..... Enjoy your toys!
