>Sesame Street is give out licensing right for merchandise nowLol, I guess those money got cut by the GOP must come from somewhere else. I know they are Muppets and specially for count von count, counting with his finger is his thing but I really wish they give people both set of pair of hands like with transformers
sesame street always had merchandise why are you so dumb op?
>>11622495The only thing you can COUNT on anymore is people bringing up politics out of fucking nowhere
>>11622522Yeah, kinda fujny a guy who barely understands english is bringing up americam politics. Blokees are pretty cool, wish i could find them more often because at around $5 its a good value.
>>11622493....Sesame Street and Children's Television Workshop have been releasing Sesame Street merch since 1971, literally season 3 of the Sesame Street.
>>11622493elmo on the packaging, line dead before it even launched
>>11622493I never grew up with Sesame Street (Bri'ish) but Burialgoods' narrations of various Bertstrips give me enough laughter I might have to get at least Grover, Kermit and Cookie Monster.>>11626409I'm sorry, what?
>>11629631>I'm sorry, what?To put it simple, Elmo is the Urkel of Sesame StreetFor the first 15 years or so of Sesame Street, the cast was primarily the muppets you see in >>11623229 plus Big Bird and the occasional Kermit appearance. The puppet that would become Elmo was actually made with the intention of just being a generic crowdfiller muppet and would be used like that for years until the mid 80s when Kevin Clash created the Elmo that everyone knows today. The character became so popular that Elmo was shoehorned more and more into the show until eventually getting his own segment that took up half the runtime of full Sesame Street episodes. By the 90s Elmo was the face of the series, and I'm sure you're probably familiar with how Tickle Me Elmo was the biggest toy of 1996 (Against competition like Beast Wars and the Nintendo 64). Elmo is also linked with the shift in Sesame Street being a show "for kids" to a show more specifically for the toddler demographic, with Elmo acting as an identifiable character for kids watching.
>>11622538>AmericHam
>>11629842>admittedly most popular character of the show by far on the packaging >line dead It's neat that you know so much about Elmo but you're contradicting yourself.
>>11630040Wrong
>>11622493I love them and hope they will make more. I need Grover and Telly. Would love to get Fraggles like these as well.
>>11633386pic related my messy shelf
Just pointing out, Abby is the one to hate now, not Elmo.>Super7 Re-Action releases a wave of two characters: Grover, and Abby Cadabby>Line haults>They release an entire Elmo wave>People are buying them again
>>11633439>>People are buying them againNope
>>11633454Here we go, the one tard that hates Elmo for some reason. Everyone, don't worry, he speaks for all of us and his opinion is final. He says Elmo, the most marketable character on Sesame Street, isn't popular.
>>11633510Holy fuck, get some therapy
>>11633517elmo loves you.
>>11633439I love Abby, what's wrong with you
>>11633530Just trying to fit in, it's cool to hate on Muppets made to appeal to literal 2 year olds on /toy/.
>>11630040I think he's trying to say that older fans of Sesame Street (which, apparently, are a thing for some reason) don't like Elmo for being a bit of a Poochie and putting him on the box won't appeal to them, so the line is dead. Which is a bit silly because kids who grew up with Elmo are in their late 20s and early 30s now and are thus unlikely to be dissuaded from buying the figures because, uh, Elmo is on the box logo?A bit weird honestly; I'm sure there's good reasons not to like Elmo but believing the line is objectively doomed because Elmo is the example muppet on the "building toys" symbol is ridiculous.
>>11633548Someone got really upset that someone else pointed out Elmo might get a NECA figure, and got multiple people banned over it. Went around claiming Elmo kills toy lines.
>>11633549He does ruin and kill toy lines. That's just the truth.
>>11633550Provide proof of this 'truth'.
remember the tickle me elmo riots
>>11633818Things that never happened, the post.
>>11633387if you had all of your pokemon cards in a card box, it would be a big step in straightening up. Sometimes all it takes is 1 move to kickstart into tidying up! I believe in you, anonTyping this has inspired me to tidy up my desk too...
>>11633838People already know, you can’t hide it.
>>11633550Only a fake fan that doesn't understand the role he played in one of the most pivotal episodes of Sesame Street in the 80s would think that.
>>11633838Can you please provide evidence that Elmo kills toylines?
I'd also like to squash the rumors and misinformation that Elmo 'replaced' older characters. By the time Elmo was Elmo, with Clash performing him, puppeteers of the older crowd where VERY busy.>Jim was off doing Creature Shop stuff while also focusing more on Muppets>Frank was off Directing Movies>Jerry Nelson was flying from New York, to Canada to London to be involved with everything.>Richard Hunt was doing that tooSure their characters still showed up, and they showed up to puppeteer, but they weren't as present as they used to be. They where trying to keep the street populated, so Telly Monster, Elmo, Buster the Horse, Hoots, and all them showed up, while Carol's Big Bird and Oscar where mainstays and Prarie Dawn kept appearing.
>>11633942Nobody cares, at all.
>>11633945We know you don't, NECA anon, you won't even post your collection. Look, hate Elmo all you want, you can't change the fact he's one of the, if not the most popular character on Sesame Street. Again, don't know why we even bother to argue with you, you don't buy toys.
>>11633846Thanks I actually tidied it up month ago. Its old photo.
I can't wait for the Big Bird, Oscar, Elmo and Grover NECA figures, I got the Count last month and he's pretty good.
>>11634076They're not making Elmo, psycho.
>>11634076I'm looking forward to displaying Elmo with Snuffleupagus and Big Bird.
>>11634146Psycho?They probably will, it'll probably be really good too since they've been knocking it out of the park so far.>>11634158Snuffleupagus would be cool, might be too big for them though but then again their Big Bird looks huge.It's cool that they're doing the side cast too, wonder how deep they'll go into those.
>>11634173>wonder how deep they'll go into those.Whatever they do I hope they include Slimey the worm with someone (maybe Oscar).
>>11634174Good news anon they are including him with Oscar! NECA seems set to give us the entire cast, it's awesome.
>>11634158They aren't making Elmo
>>11634180Oddly, Slimey wasn't at the same display recently, where they showed off Sherlock Hemlock
>>11634183Blokees has already made Elmo, retard.
>>11634259Remind him of the tickle me Elmo craze that caused mass sell outs and rioting
>>11634207So what? Blokees ain't shit.
>>11634282Well Blokees have been kicking a lot of serious ass these couple past years, a lot better than Funko too.
>>11634286Show us your blockee collection then.
Imagine hating a muppet
>>11626409>>11629842>>11633945
>>11634158I'm gonna display mine with Master Splinter from the First TMNT movie and Baby Sinclair and my Palisade's Clifford. Got a lil Kevin Clash collection going.
>>11634282>Blokees ain't shit.Correct. They are the opposite of NECA, who are shit.
>>11634538Neca isn't shit, so your post is complete nonsense.
>>11622493Pulled Elmo today
>>11634830>Chunked a Big One today
>>11634830That sounds dirty.
>>11635086I pulled Big Bird last night. Probably pull him again tonight.
>>11636513I yanked my Mr. Snuffleupagus till it was raw.
>>11637613You did the Shuffleyerphallus?
>>11634180That's not Snuffy. Those are Oscar's pet elephants.
>>11634180So when are they doing Elmo?
>>11642641No, anon is talking about Slimey, Oscar's pet worm next to the shoe.>>11643866Soon.
