I found out that Universal Japan has their own Sesame Character named Moppi who is Elmo's best friend. I find this very interesting. Anyone else think they should westernize him and bring him to Sesame Street on TV? May be a good distraction for Elmo and the controversy

Abby Cadabby seems to be the new Elmo these days. Either her or Murray Monster.

Moppi is an exclusive character to the Universal Studios Japan show, Happy Surpise. I believe Moppi's name comes from the word, "Muppet". Here's a video of Moppi in action.
