The Pigs in Space set was the fourth playset in Palisades Toys' line of Jim Henson's Muppets action figures. It featured interchangable cardboard video screens, doors that could be opened and closed by shoving a button, a controll panel with moving levers, and three chairs (including two for the Link Hogthrob Action Figure and the Julius Strangepork Action Figure. The playset had hinges so the doors could either be shoved towards the controll panel or extended.

The Piggy figure looks much better than the Miss Piggy Action Figure and the Glamour Piggy Action Figure. Her skin has texture, her hair is blonde and her face is a lot more detailed.

The playset came with computer screens and other machine parts which could be turned into any kind of crazy machine possible.

The playset was planned to be released around the same time as series four, but ended up being released with series six.
