Create Your Own Muppet Whatnot
Forget Elmo, what the kids might be craving this season is their own custom Muppet Whatnot. What's a Whatnot? It's basically a Muppet extra, one of the background Muppets. Manhattan's FAO Schwarz has created a Muppet Whatnot Workshop which turns out the puppets which have moveable mouths, and hand-rods. You can specify color, eyes, nose, hair color and outfit to create your own creation either at the store or online. The Whatnot is $90.
