Ok, we can accept the fact that Sesame figures won't make their way to the Palisades line, but hey, there's nothing wrong with fantasising. After all, if all we're doing is dreaming, our ideas don't have to be compromised by pesky little inconveniences as sculpting, cost, marketability and all that krap. So a few ideas that have crossed my mind...
A deluxe Big Bird set, containing an original village idiot version of da bird, the standard BB we all know and love today, a blue-painted BB from Follow That Bird and a few of the foreign Big Bird equivalents.
Roosevelt Franklin Elementary School playset, with Roosevelt and friends
A playset that answers the eternal question "what's behind the green door?" Y'know, those green doors in the arbor area of the street that, before the area became Gina's surgery, were seldom opened... perhaps it could be a Sesame Street storage area, where one could spend a whole day looking through the "junk" and having a wonderfully nostalgic time. Amongst the things that could be stored in there are Don Music's piano, Oscar's ice cream stand, photos of old SS friends, a stack of old invitations to Maria and Luis' wedding, the pictures that Big Bird presented to his "grown-up friends" when he then learnt that Mr Hooper had died, the old soda fountains/store dressings from the original Hooper's store, menus from Charlie's Restaurant... and so the list continues (anyone care to add?)
I've said it before and I'll say it again: the world NEEDS figures of the Dodos from Follow That Bird... not to mention a Miss Finch
