I was thinking back to the three decades Ive been collecting Muppet stuff(tho sadly, most of it was long ago sold) and as much as I liked the 2002-2004 tsunami of merchandising radness...I also recall the 1994-1997 period, even through 1999...having some seriously cool stuff.
Before their was Palisades making Muppety stuff, there was Applause and other companies!
So now for my top ten 1994-1999 stuff!
1. Muppets Inside CD-Rom Game(1996) Seriously, amazing.

10. And for some odd reason, I really dug the 1998 Mcdonald's Muppet Babies books. If for no other reason that they revived a once dead franchise
