I guess you're right, I suppose I'd just rather see something along the lines of the much-delayed coffee table book or even a refreshed plush line if we're talking high-end. I know it's hard for them to find outlets for merchandise, but these things are just ugly.
Heh. I don't think there's any logical way to make these things look
good. Maybe if they were like, five feet tall or something. I guess this is for that small overlap of Venn Diagram that both remember Fraggle Rock and like string dolls. I don't see the appeal on either side other wise ... I mean, these things are
10 bucks! 5 bucks, sure... but
10?!?!
Other than that, Fraggle Rock's least accessibility of the main 3 Muppet Franchises doesn't lend itself out well to mainstream products. I really miss the days of Sababa Toys and finding them at Target, Marshalls/TJ Maxx and KB Toys. We have a decent (at best) looking plush toy assortment that only retails at Yuppie toy stores. And that's the most accessible of the bunch. And that darn coffee table book is taking its time (wonder if its going to be released at all, since they keep moving the goal post). It would have been great if the Doozers series popped up on something that's
not hulu. I coulda seen this thing on The Hub, and having Hasbro release small Doozer figures like the Sesame Street Buddy Packs.
