Doll-A-Day 2019 #362: Jim Henson and Other Gifts

  Today we're looking at my other doll related presents from this Christmas. First we'll see the 'related',and then we'll see the doll. Here is the pile of doll related items everybody gifted me with.

The socks in a sweater set was a find of Ken's.

I'll have to take the stitching out of the bottom of the little sweater the socks came in, and then it will be a doll sweater. (They came from Big Lots,if anybody wants to see if their local one still has any. There were three styles.)
  Emma got me the set of tiny cleaning items.
 

The little mini Pac-Man game was from Ivy.When she spotted one a friend had, she knew she had to get me one.

It's tiny. It's sort of Kelly doll sized. And the best part? You can really play it!

Emma got me the set of little chairs at Ikea.

I think they are actually hooks to hang things on your wall.

They are just the right size for Tammy World.

  Of course,I got some things that weren't doll related.I got some items for my reading and viewing pleasure.

From Ken's sister Diane,from Ken,and from Emma.

And some things for my listening pleasure, from Emma and Ivy.

There were some other things too,like some lilac soap,pumpkin curd,(sort of like apple butter),some pumpkin spice syrup, There was also the doll for today from Emma, which is this guy.

It's Jim Henson,obviously,with Kermit.

He's a Pop Vinyl doll.

This doll does not have legs that long!

He's part of the Pop Icons series I assume.

Like all Pop Vinyl dolls,this one has a simple look that captures the character it represent in a few details.

In this case the details are Jim Henson's beard and gray hair.

And of course his Kermit.

  That's the doll for today. The year is almost over,but we have a few more days of daily dolls. Tomorrow we'll see another one.

Doll-A-Day 2017 #90:Emma's Collection Part 2,Muppets Pop Vinyl,McDonalds,and More

  Yesterday we started a look at Emma's collection of various figures and toys. Today in part 2 we're checking out her Muppets.

Animal and Fozzie hanging out with a recent Goodwill find, Jazzie.

Emma got her love of Muppets from me. I always loved The Muppets,and when I was pregnant with Emma I stocked up on Muppet teethers and rattles and Emma's first calendar,on which I kept track of her first tooth, first word, first step, was Muppet babies. For Emma's first Christmas I gave her a Kermit doll I'd had in my own collection. When she was tiny she played with my collection of early 70's Sesame Street finger puppets in the bath every night.

And I've started her on her own collection of identical finger puppets (The three on the right.).She also has McDonald's Muppets toys and the Kermit on a motorcycle I think came form her visit to Disneyworld when she went with the orchestra, in high school.

I never really had a favourite Muppet,but Emma developed an affection for Gonzo.
 

And his buddy Rizzo the Rat.

She's also pretty fond of Janice from the Electric mayhem band, here with band leader Doctor Teeth.

The Fozzie was a recent Ebay purchase. She says she's disappointed because she doesn't think he's a very good Fozzie, but I covet him!

Emma also has these Muppets Minimates and a Kermit Pez:

And you saw the Super Grover Pop Vinyl.Well, he's not her only Sesame Street Pop Vinyl.

Super Grover, Bert, and Ernie Pop Vinyls.

And there are a few random Muppet things...

The thing on the right is a picture holder she got at Disneyworld.

Tomorrow we'll see what Emma has for Shrunken Saturday.
