Sesamstraat PVC figures (Albert Heijn)

The Dutch supermarket chain Albert Heijn started selling microwave foods and yoghurt deserts featuring Sesame Street characters in 2004.

The microwave meals (such as spinach, rice, and pasta) were sold in cardboard boxes with cut-out Sesame Street domino cards on them. With each meal, a package of apple sauce was included, with Ernie on it.

The cups of yoghurt came in strawberry, banana and red fruits flavor. Bert and Ernie are depicted on them.

With each microwave meal or yoghurt cup, a tiny plastic figure was included. The series consisted of Elmo, Bert, Ernie, Cookie Monster, Pino, Tommie, Ieniemienie and Purk and could be considered the smallest Sesame Street PVC figures ever. Each figure comes with a bio card featuring a short story about the character.
