Sesame Street plush (Gund)

Gund has produced a line of Sesame Street plush toys since 2003. Later sets (as can be identified by the copyright year notes on the toys' tags) used slightly different materials and patterns, leaving the quality of the newer sets to affect the characters' likenesses, sometimes reshaping their faces considerably.
