Indeed, Miss Piggy was suppoed to be Miss Piggy Lee (but Peggy Lee asked them not to do so) and she was supposed to be a background muppet but a combination of factors including Erin Ozker leaving and Wayne, Wanda and Sam not working out quite as expected. That led to her becoming a major character from second season on.

You are a Muppets EXPERT, Troy, wow! Maybe YOU should be making this set instead of me? Anyway, I got ROWLF THE DOG on his way tomorrow! Keep an eye out for him! Todd C WTIC

I'm enjoying what you're doing. I am a longtime Muppet fan so I do know quite a bit but I'll just enhance your stuff with a little history.

I'm not sure I'd make Kermit that much better than everyone else.. sure, he's the MC, but is he really the star at the beginning? I feel like it was more total chaos than Kermit being in command at the beginning, but maybe I'm mis-remembering.

Vegas, can he be contacted on FB or Instagram? You could ask at least, not sure if he'd reply though. Anyway, here she is because you KNOW you want her: MISS PIGGY!
Note: She isn't Championship material here because not only was she puppeteered by two puppeteers in the first season, her character hadn't been fully developed yet. Season TWO she will get an upgrade! I've added stuff for when she wrestles men ("male" puppets). Comments? Suggestions? More Muppet mayhem soon! Todd C WTIC Are we counting the films as well? Because in the films, most of Piggy's stunts were done with highly-visible doubles that were basically people in costumes, as opposed to muppets. This makes your card of her work well. Regarding Gonzo, I was going by the films, where he took a beating but got right back up. Off the top of my head, he got thrown from a plane, run over by a car, blown through a brick wall, and stretched on a rack. Kermit seems okay. He tends to get knocked down and out rather easily, but he is pretty quick. And in Muppets Treasure Island, he performed flips and beat Long John Silver in a duel, well until he lost his grip on his sword.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone! I'm enjoying what you're doing. I am a longtime Muppet fan so I do know quite a bit but I'll just enhance your stuff with a little history. That'd be cool, Troy! Thanks! I'm not sure I'd make Kermit that much better than everyone else.. sure, he's the MC, but is he really the star at the beginning? I feel like it was more total chaos than Kermit being in command at the beginning, but maybe I'm mis-remembering. I might scale him down a little in the next draft, but not much. He is, afterall, the only Muppet that everyone recognizes in the first season. Are we counting the films as well?

I will keep this in mind if I ever do up a batch of MOVIE Muppets though, thanks! --------------------------------- Anyway, here's today's Muppet: THE NEWSMAN & ROWLF THE DOG! Note: News Flash Blast on The Newsman is a Forearm Blast from the 2nd rope. Sam the Eagle is up next! Comments? Suggestions? Todd C WTIC

Sam clearly needs better stats against non Americans.

I think Rowlf should have a Raise His Leg Superkick. Did Miss Piggy use a filter for her card pic? Looks like she had work done lol. Keep up the great work.

That's how Piggy looked in season 1. They modified a lot of characters during the show's run.

Oohhh... Rowlf is a BEAST. That's good... I'm a fan . The newsguy (did he never get named?) I remember getting abused pretty good, so he makes a great jobber!
