I think you're right. I'm happy to upgrade those 3 figures in my Palisades collection. I hope they make Piggy, Rowlf, Animal, and Bunsen figures, too, because I think those figures could also use upgrades.

What are folks' expectations and hopes for new reveals for this line at Toy Fair in a couple weeks? I expect they'll show the next figure coming out, which I think will be Cookie Monster, and that will be the only reveal. Since they've already revealed several figures that haven't gone up for...

They just need to add like 20 more Sesame Street figures, and the scene will be all set. These 4 do look great together!

Someone on FB suggested the unannounced figure could be available for purchase at Target's Haulathon in March. That makes sense to me. The figure could be shown at Toy Fair in February to build excitement before it's sold in March. That would also shorten the time between releases for the line...

I'm so excited! My guess is Big Bird will be $79. Do y'all think it will be more or less than that?

Since Muppet sizes vary so much depending on characters in the shot, I don't get too concerned about the sizes of the figures, unless it's way off (like the DST Rizzo). Though, even that figure's scale didn't bother me too much. The only thing that would really bother me is if the scale of the...

I hope a Simon head is included in the set. In his interview with Veebs, Trevor noted that Mr. Johnson is a whatnot Muppet that can be used to make multiple characters. It would take a little bit of customizing to turn a Mr. Johnson head into a Simon one. I plan to buy at least 3 sets to make...

Based on comments from Trevor in the recent interview, my guess is that Big Bird, the unknown character, Oscar, and the Grover and Mr. Johnson two-pack will be the only NECA Sesame Street figures that will come out next year. I'd be happy if they release 5 or 6 new figures every year for the...

Elmo is a good guess. I was originally thinking Cookie Monster, but Elmo makes a lot of sense. I agree, he is likely more appealing to retailers. I think NECA could also have avoided having him displayed at shows to avoid potential backlash from older collectors that want the line to focus on...

For anyone who hasn't already seen it, Boss Fight Studio has new Fraggle Rock figures up for pre-order. There's a 'classic' Mokey, Gobo with in-scale Doozers, and basic (no accessories) versions of Gobo, Red, Wembley, and Boober. They are supposed to be out Q3 2026. I'm so happy they're making...

Trevor, from NECA, was interviewed by Veebs recently, and he gave some updates on the Sesame Street line. They start talking Sesame Street at 1hr 35min into the below video. Apparently, Big Bird is next and due out early 2026. Next will be a figure that hasn't been shown yet. I wonder if it's...

Thanks! I missed that info. If the next figure(s) are supposed to release in Q2 2026, I'm guessing they'll go up for pre-order soonish. Or is Q2 when they'll go up for pre-order? I'll scroll back in the thread to check the original post. There's a long list of characters I want NECA to make, and...

Any guesses on when the next figure will go up for pre-order? Will it be Herry, Big Bird, or Oscar? Maybe they're waiting for all three to be reading to solicit together. It's been a while since the Count went on sale, and I'm eager for more figures.

Based on comments from DSTChuck, I think orders for the Deadly and Pepe two-pack were low. I'm guessing the company decided not to use their limited funds to start production for a relatively unpopular product. I get the impression pre-orders for Sweetums were higher, so I was hoping that figure...

I wonder if Sweetums didn't jump Deadly and Pepe in production order based on number of pre-orders. I wouldn’t be surprised if none of the figures made it far into production, likely not even to the tooling stage. During their 25th anniversary livestream, Chuck mentioned that pre-orders of the...

At this point, it seems increasingly unlikely any of the Muppet pre-orders will be released. Apparently, EB Games has canceled a bunch of DST pre-orders. The list seemed to cover all items the sell, but there may be a few products still coming. I received an email from DST customer service...

Good questions, Count. The Count figure is also available on Big Bad Toy Store for $42 and $4 shipping. With taxes, that's still closer to $50. I agree, these prices are making it tough to collect the line...

Now that I have a Count figure, and he is becoming available at more places, I'm starting to get eager for the next figure. Will it be Herry Monster? I think the NECA folks said he was further along than Big Bird and Oscar. Whichever figure it is, I hope it goes up for pre-order soon. Maybe it...

I feel terrible for Zach Oat and all the former DST employees who lost their job. I hope they're all able to find new work quickly. Diamondselecttoys.com now shows a message about DST being on pause as they prepare to show new offers and keep checking back. I'm not sure if this means lines will...

If this purchase goes through (fingers crossed!), I wonder how the Disney license will work. I don't think it was included in the Alliance purchase. Maybe it will need to be renegotiated. Having DST continue their Muppets line, including the figures already solicited, plus NECA making updated...
