Sorry, I didnt realize that. I have lived in Japan so long I am not sure what is released in the states and what is not. I figured the "import" section contained all of the items from abroad and the other sections were local products. I will keep my eyes out for Japan specific stuff and let you...

That is fantastic! I will definitely check the store out! Thanks for the info!

I just came across this site offering some cool Japanese Sesame Street merchandise. It even has various imported goods from other countries! http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/sesame/ Sorry, it is only in Japanese it looks like...

Kiddyland Kiddyland... I have heard of that store before, I will have to check it out! Were the things that your sister found Muppet Show related merchandise or Sesame Street?

Well, I have some bad news. I went by the store with all the Muppet stuff and it was all gone! It had been replaced by some Sesame Street items (mainly Elmo dressed up like other characters)... It must not have sold very well... Sorry

Sounds like a plan!

Muppets in Japan Well if you have any questions about culture or anything, I would be happy to help!

Sorry for the late post! Yeah! That looks great! I saw some really cool signs of the Muppet Show in Japanese where I bought that japanese muppet stuff before but unfortunately they were not for sale.

Nice to hear from you! I like your gif images! For the Muppet Show one, drop out the の　in the middle and it will be perfect!

I was just cruising around the forums and saw these posts. Did you ever finish your story?

Kermit's World Tour looks way cool. I wish that I had one, I would love to show him around Japan!

Haha! I never thought of it like that, but thats true! They come with little comics that show why Elmo dressed up like them. Elmo wanted to be slimeys friend so he dressed up like oscar. Then he wanted to sleep in big birds nest so he found a big bird costume. Finally he saw a cookie so he...

Here is the next big muppety thing here in Japan! Elmo dressed as big bird, oscar, and cookie monster! http://www.strapya.com/products/21847.html

Wow! I have no clue what it says, that is way too small. Maybe its some good Engrish, lol.

Or how about Sesame Street pictures with a slight Japanese twist: https://www.akane-shop.net/cargo/goodsprev.cgi?gno=610C27Y1

The same thing has been happening to the ones I sent my mom from Japan! The ones that she purchased in the states haven't chipped yet though.

Oh yeah! Peek-a-poohs! My mom actually collects them. This was the first time that I had seen the same idea applied to Sesame Street characters though. I looked all over for them but haven't been able to find them...

Wow that is really great! I will have to see about getting myself one!

The Japanese people have a "fatal addiction to cuteness" as Gwen Stefani put it. And I agree, these are pretty darn cute: http://my.tomy.co.jp/yujinp/meisai.asp?n=4904790953989

Response Hi! I have never heard that the Dark Crystal is popular here in Japan. It seems like they would like it though. Nightmare Before Christmas is huge here, but I have yet to meet someone who has seen the Dark Crystal and remembers it...
