Presenting, Jim Henson and Kermit the Frog

[noelani72]

Quite the fun one to do. Saw the head in a bin at MegoMeet and knew instantly how I'd do it.
Type-S body, vintage Mego clothes.
Sculpty Kermit body and head, fabric wrapped.
Backdrop built by The Boy

Enjoy.

Just wonderful, I have something in my eye.

If you do Fred Rogers, too I'll lose it.

Phenomenal idea and wonderful execution.

Fantastic! Now you need a Frank Oz to be with him. Maybe the AO Rudy Wells head with the hair and mustache painted darker.

Out of curiosity, do you know about the statue at the University of Maryland? Hard to believe it's been almost three decades since he passed.

How cool is that?!? Great work and very creative. Jim is probably smiling down on that custom right now.

I appreciate all the comments, thanks.
I grew up on Mego and Muppets...seemed fitting that those worlds would collide someday. Funny how it was mentioned, but yes, I have envisioned Frank and Fozie Bear in a style like this. Maybe someday.
