I seem to remember these were "tested" in the UK not long ago but since then

our BL catalog.

From what I know nothing has changed in regards to the availability of this set
(and the following VIP "Add On" sets). So it is still a test product only available
to selected VIP members in the UK. But it does exist and many are for sale on
Ebay, so there is no reason why it should not have an entry on BL.

They have been doing the trials in the UK but no word yet whether this one or
others will be more widespread.
Even if it remains as a UK only trial, it is a valid LEGO product (like any regional
item such as bricktober or comic con) so not surprising it is in the catalogue.

That's like asking for a City wave without a helicopter or a Harry Potter
set without Harry, Ron or Hermione! Madness!

Tip: you don't have to buy all sets. If you don't like them, don't
buy them.

If you’re asking if all four were sold under a different set number I do not
know. This helps explain why I have so many extra minifigs from this era.
I know I had 6803, 6823 and 6842, but that last one doesn’t look familiar at
all. I distinctly remember 6823 because it was the first time I’d gotten that
“box”, the swivel and those “lunar tires”. For 8-year-old me this was a huge
advancement over the older sets I had which were mostly red, blue, yellow and
white 2x4 bricks.

Nope! It's from the Cheers set.
Kidding, yes, you have it correct. I scanned through the manual and did not

Coffee cup and I guess some sort of jar.
If you use the part out function it will tell you what parts in the set are regular
parts, what belong in minifigs and anything that is down as an extra.

Mega has had the license for some time, so I'd guess that the workshop has

|
It'll be interesting to see how it unfolds. Mega has only ever released
Sesame Street stuff for the youngest target audience, so I'd guess that they
never held the license for minifig-scale stuff. They used to sell a number of
Disney Princess sets in that larger scale, too, even when LEGO had its own license.
And of course Mega still carried the license for Sony's Spider-Man films,
even after losing the MCU license.
It's a weird and cyclical and overlapping and redundant world sometimes!

Is Sesame Street popular with adults and older children?

The one Sesame Street set is not intended for little kids. It is intended for
grownup who loved Sesame Street when they were little.
|
It doesn't look like a set a small child can build, even those who are ready
for regular LEGO. Really I just want the characters in DUPLO scale, as I would
build the street myself.
|
As others have said, LEGO has never had the license. It could be that they do
now and are making plans. Or it could be that they only got limited license
for an adult collectible.

Dora the Explorer is another one where MEGA first had the license and then LEGO
got it. I have sets from both.
The MEGA set came with some really cool track pieces, that line up really well
with the LEGO DUPLO brick runner track pieces, which align well with regular
DUPLO bricks.
