For any of you fellow 80s children/Henson fans out there:
Pre-order is $76, not too shabby for the whole series on shiny blu-ray. I sent my Mom a very subtle email asking her to buy it for me for Christmas (well, I asked her to please forward a message to Santa...she knows him!!!!)
I have the series on DVD but it has to be one of the WORST boxed sets ever. The case was pretty much a giant binder with paper folders so the discs slid all over. I had to return it twice when I bought it because of scratches. So I'm really happy to upgrade. Plus, BLU-RAY quality! YAAAAAAAS!
The winter episode is one of my favorites, I watch it every Christmas and I think it still has one of the best messages about tradition and family. But I would love to watch them all again and this set should make it worth it on so many levels.
And it comes with an Uncle Traveling Mat cutout to take with you into the land of the Silly Creatures ala Flat Stanley. I love this and I'm so doing it.

The terrible tunnel episode gave us nightmares though, and when we talked to other kids about it none of them seemed to know what we were talking about and acted like we were making it up. I was glad to find on the internet several years later that it was a real episode.
Also one of the greatest compliments I have ever received was a friend telling me she thought it was adorable that ate radishes like chips as if I were a fraggle.
Also my mother still frequently says THE TRASH HEAP HAS SPOKEN. NYEAAAH. when she doesn't want to discuss something further.
