Yay, its November and the holiday months have officially belong. For me they start in October, but for the rest of America November seems to be the it month. Stores bring out the Holiday decorations, and the malls begin to cast their parade of holiday colors. Corporate America starts showing slews of holiday commercials. Im not saying this is bad, no on the contrary this helps people get into warmer moods, it brings in the holiday cheer.
As a kid I always remember McDonalds having some of the best holiday commercials and happy meal toys. One of the promotions I remember best were the Muppet Baby holiday plush dolls they had in 87. I didn't own all three but I did own the Fozzie Bear one. I was always a fan of Fozzie, maybe it was because he seemed to be such an underdog in the show. He was riffled with tomatoes after his jokes, but always got up for more. I actually remember really liking this doll enough to keeping it around even when it was time to get rid of old toys, sure he sat on a shelf but every time I looked at him it brought back memories of the holidays and good times with it.
McDonalds also had Miss Piggy, who always seemed like to much of a bitch for any kid to want to own her, and the Kermit. They were cute and Cuddly and were dressed to make you feel a little warmer for the Holidays.
Any body else remember or own any of these?
