How the Muppets Escaped the Studio and Took Over the Real World

How the Muppets Escaped the Studio

You ever wonder how a felt frog can ride a bike better than you? Or how a bear with no visible joints managed to drive a Studebaker across America without causing a ten-car pileup? This video from Alex Boucher peels back the curtain (and trapdoors, and underwater barrels) to reveal the tricks behind some of the Muppets’ greatest stunts. No CGI. No AI. Just good old-fashioned puppetry, wires, remote controls, and Jim Henson crammed into increasingly uncomfortable places for the sake of art.

Watch now and see how far a puppet will go when you give it a dream, a camera crew, and a suspiciously deep trench to hide the guy operating it.

Hasbro Takes the High Ground with SDCC 2025’s Anakin vs. Obi-Wan Black Series Set

Anakin vs. Obiwan Black Series Figures

It’s over, collectors. Hasbro has the high ground, and your wallet doesn’t stand a chance.

In a move hotter than Anakin’s skin-care routine post-Mustafar, Hasbro just dropped their San Diego Comic-Con 2025 exclusive like a flaming Jedi into a river of poor life choices. It’s a glorious Black Series two-pack featuring Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi locked in their most dramatic workplace disagreement. You know the one. There’s yelling, fire, betrayal, and a firm lesson about having the high ground.

Anakin and Obi-Wan

The set features highly detailed 6-inch figures of both Jedi at peak emotional damage. You’ll get lightsabers with clash and swing effects, dramatic interchangeable Force hands, and a two-piece lava base that clicks together so you can recreate the ultimate “bad idea, Anakin” moment in all its smoky glory. All this for $109.99: less than the cost of rebuilding your limbs after losing a duel to your former mentor!

Anakin vs. Obi-Wan Fight

Exclusively available at Hasbro booth #3213 during SDCC, with a limited number also landing on HasbroPulse.com for those who prefer to shout “I HATE YOU!” at their computer screen instead of in a convention line.
