NECA's Ultimate Sesame Street Action Figures

[anytimepally]

I do recall an interview with the NECA guy where he said they had planned for Cookie Monster to get the C until they decided to spell NECA, which moved C up. I wouldn't mind an O for Cookie Monsterm given how many he uses when he says "Coooookies!"

I'd like to see Herbert Birdsfoot come with the K, and I'd like to see a few more numbers mixed in. Four, as an example, would have been good for Bird Bird as a callback to "I Just Adore 4," which is one of my favorite songs of his.

Yes, with the letter O would be perfect. And then Don Music with a letter M, both as references to the What's My Letter? game show sketch since already has the X.

Herbert Birdsfoot with a letter K, due to his kooky poem about Kaye the Kangaroo who played kazoo in the Kalamazou Zoo.
Maybe The Amazing Mumford with the letter V and Lefty the Salesman either with a letter Z in reference to their respective stories from the Sesame Street A, B, C Storybook.

And... we're never gonna get any of the modern characters?

Seems a bit premature to say never, but I doubt Abby is high on the list since this is a line aimed at adults that uses theb1970s and 80s esthetic.

Well, so was Super7. And we know what happened to them.
