I just came across this site offering some cool Japanese Sesame Street merchandise. It even has various imported goods from other countries!

Cool, but it looks like quite a bit of the stuff came from the US. The Gund Finger puppets, the Kurt Adler ornaments....

I'm much more interrested in Japan specific stuff, myself. Especially their own coproduction characters. Someone once posted a blind box toy/Candy set that I'd love to get my hands on.

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 know!

Some of that stuff is really cool - the Sesame figure sculpts especially! I haven't seen some of those around. The Kermit one, however, I do have. I'm not crazy about that particular sculpt. It's been around for a while (pre-Palisades) and I now compare it to the Palisades Kermit log mini-pvc of the similar pose. Makes that one look like Pac-Man. LOL! :smile:

But some of those SS PVCs look impressive compared to what I see these days in the stores. And the Radco (sp?) ornaments are beautiful as well. Thanks for sharing the link! :wink:
