    ToyFare: Allen hints at something "so big"...

    Ok, my two cents' worth... personally I'd love to see a set of arches like the ones used in the opening sequence be released... maybe ones that can be snapped together, put on top of each other to make your own customised set of arches, as your own space and budget allows Cherry "no...

    Big Bird in China DVD

    I don't know if this should be posted under Classic Sesame Street or Sesame Merchandise, but I just wanted to say that I managed to get hold of this DVD last week, and it was such a treat. Sesame fans with yearnings for the old days should definitely consider getting hold of this treasure...

    Figures released in red and blue boxes

    K, that makes sense... if it was picked up with the later series, the packaging would need to be in sync with it Any collectors on this forum hardcore enough to try to get one in each type of box? Cherry "enlightened" Pizza

    Figures released in red and blue boxes

    Anyone have any idea why there would be a picture of this in the blue box, when it came in the red curtain-designed one? Cherry "Out of Chef's frying pan, into the blue box" Pizza

    The Series 9 Chef Figure

    I agree in essence, but would be very wary of using the word "silly"... As Muppet fans and toy collectors our passion, our spirit is so great that we couldn't possibly believe that anyone or anything could stop this line from living on and from bringing out more and more brilliant...

    Now I've seen it all

    I saw one at Kmart... since it was on the shelf it was still in demo mode... but it sang something to the tune of "pop goes the weasel" about learning to use the potty *shakes head even more* Cherry "pop goes the Cherry" Pizza

    Funniest rip-off...

    Back when the Flintstones were being immortalised in the big screen, the dollar stores here in Aus had toys called "The Stone Family". Two packs of two squeaky toys, which looked suspiciously like Fred, Barney, Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm. Knowing my fetish for cartoons, these were brought home for me...

    Funniest rip-off...

    K, I guess we're all familiar with the bargain "variety stores" "clearing houses" or whatever they're called in your neck of the woods (thanks to Al Roker :)), and everyone's probably come across the rip off toys that are different enough from the trademarked items to avoid the lawsuits but...

    One day late, but happy birthday Bob

    How could this one have gone by unnoticed? It was on the 11th of July that Sesame Street's beloved Bob McGrath turned 71. What would Sesame Street be without Bob? How can you describe him? Silly, funny, fun, warm, gentle, sincere... such a wide scope of adjectives because, quite simply, he...

    Muehl or Meehl

    While we're at it, for so many Muppet projects in the 70s and 80s, Caroll Spinney is credited as "Carroll". What was up with that? Surely they didn't mis-spell his name for so long without it being noticed Cherry "perfekt spellar" Pizza

    Jerry Nelson - active or not?

    I couldn't find this one being addressed anywhere... Listening to the Count, Mumford and Herry on later SS episodes, it's apparent that either Jerry's voice has softened or there's somebody else voicing his characters. I know that as recently as the late 90s, he was still a credited...
