So I hauled out my two Sesame Street playsets from the 70's just now, and I was surprised at just how complete I'd managed to keep them. In fact, the only pieces I ever lost were when my parents moved to a new house around 1976: Cookie Monster and Grover. (I also lost a Child Guidance Grover...
I've got all of the Star Wars MPH's. Even the variant of Darth Tater with the chestplate, and all those which were exclusive to the Disney Parks.
I've got several others from over the years, too. Ever since I became a dad, seems like we've always bought MPH.

This isn't an online bargain, but a friend of mine in CA told me about a clearance item at his Target, and sure enough it's on clearance here in AL too, so that seems fairly nationwide.
The Fisher-Price "123 Sesame Street" playset is currently half-off. Was $34.99, now $17.48.

Hey figmental,
Wow, your very first post was in my thread? I'm honored!
Love your avatar. And is the name 'figmental' a reference to Figment from EPCOT? I only recently learned that Dave Goelz took over the voice for Figment after Billy Barty died.
Glad you like my efforts here. Someone...
The 'WWE Dr. Teeth' recreation is something that I've been tinkering on in between progress on a couple of commissions... I noticed how close I was to having him complete, so I went ahead and finished him off...
Another good illustration of why a customizer should never pay inflated prices for something that is essentially just a re-deco of an easily available sculpt...
No customs today... I'm working on several, but they're not completed yet.
But I did want to toot my own horn, if I may.
I was over at ToughPigs.com and checked the winners of their caption contest, and I am happy to announce that I was the winner on Photo #3 and a runner-up on Photo #2...
I only very recently learned of the existence of the Ideal puppets... when I saw the commercial playing at the Jim Henson's Fantastic World traveling Smithsonian exhibition, in fact.
I don't care too much for Kermit's red torso, and the Rowlf pales in comparison to the Fisher-Price version...
UPDATE...
It was a regular Chef apron that had the black smear on it.
I do have a spare Chef hat, but it's the Culinary Catastrophe hat, with the smudges painted on the front.

I *think* I have one left over from a custom... I'm not 100% sure though.
Seems like I remember having one that had gotten a smear of black paint on it, and when I decided to customize a different Chef, I gave his good hat to the one with the messed-up hat... so what did I do with the...
Another correct answer on the first try! (Although not quite as impressive as GelflingGirl's two-minute turnaround on the Tony Randall question!)
Yes, this is from the Cloris Leachman episode, when the pigs take over the Muppet Show.
Here's another shot that shows what might have been...
I had to click on this thread when I saw the title...
My kids dug their Wubbulous DVD's out of the cabinet yesterday, and have been watching them for two days.
So, the Wubbulous World is playing on the TV behind me right now.

Let's play again...

Name THAT episode!

Ooh!
I just thought of a really cool custom, and I've already got the body and the hat on hand...
Nobody's got JUST THE HEAD of a Link Hogthrob figure, by any chance?

I noticed a typo at the Muppet Wiki that was really bothering me, so I created an account and edited it... while I was in there, I altered the Fuzz Brothers entry so it no longer says they were upside down.
