The most sensational inspirational celebrational Muppetational
I recently bought Todd the Muppets Lab Playset with Beaker. Palisades Toys has the coolest Muppets desktops if you dig around the site a bit. Here are just a few (image 1, image 2, image 3, image 4, image 5, image 6, image 7, image 8)... Future sets include Pigs in Space, the Swedish Chef Kitchen, a Kermit and Miss Piggy wedding cake topper (next to impossible to find other than eBay), and finally Pepe. We might as well sign over any tax refunds now.



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



So excited you had to say it twice huh?

Frankly the thought of the Sweedish Chef kitchen set is nearly enough to make me wet myself. I'm going to force myself to not buy any though. If I bought one, I'd HAVE to buy them all and that would just get expensive.

All bets are off if they come out with a Veterinary Hospital set or a Sweetums figurine though.

Heh. My server's got the hiccups. *hic*

They did have plans for a Veterinary Hospital, btw, but are having trouble with licensing agreements on that one so it's temporarily on hold.

Thanks to a post a few months ago by someone who shall remain nameless (but her initials are QOTWFI), I already signed over my refund for the Time Life Muppet DVD set. The whole 15. Wokka! Wokka!

I fell in love with that Beaker playset a couple of months ago. That thing is the shiznit. If I remember right, it's the only way you can get the Beaker figure. That's cool. If Todd notices it missing one evening... It WASN'T me.

Thanks for the linkage. I own a Muppet-themed domain where I blog, and I really enjoyed finding out about the toys and desktops.

Ahh, the Muppets take me back to the happy years. Elementary school, swimming lessons, climbing trees, Star Wars bedspreads and the Atari 2600! I think that Time-Life is going to get some of my hard-earned dough too!

There it is ... the scientific evidence that does indeed prove beyond a shadow of a doubt ... that Todd is in fact my karmic twin.

I don't know if they have the same promotion going on where ever you are but Starbucks here in Toronto, CA has a new series of finger puppets. The first set is Kermit, Fozzy and Beaker. The next set is coming out May 28th and is rumoured to include Animal, Ms Piggy and Gonzo. I picked the first set up and travel everywhere with Beaker...
