Sesame Street Colorforms

From Muppet Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Colorforms toys are paper-thin, die-cut vinyl sheet images and shapes that can be applied to a slick cardboard background board, much like placing paper-dolls against a paper backdrop. The images stick to the background via static cling, and can be repositioned to create new scenes. The original box sets began appearing in the 1950s and featured bright shapes and "modern" basic designs, expanding into cartoon character sets. Later, Colorforms produced box sets featuring various licenses, including TV series, movies, cartoons and toys.
