However, since the company didn’t have the proper license to create Sesame Street characters at first, Hyman started working on Tickle Me Taz instead, since the company did have a plush license for Looney Tunes characters.
However, this wasn’t the only popular toy that Hyman invented. He was also responsible for inventing Talking Barney, which was released in 1993, and Alphie the Robot, which was popular in the ‘80s.
According to his obituary, his love of inventing started when he was young. “Greg's interest in all sorts of electronics consumed his life early on,” the statement said. “Greg even offered his classmates lessons in how to invent. At 11 years old, he sold ‘Rocket Ship’ rides in a discarded washing machine with a baby carriage cockpit. Other family lore stories are the exploding toilet set prank he played on Jean and the talking surplus WWII bomb used as a promotional curiosity at a local theater. As a kid, Greg had an entrepreneurial talent that grew from offering those inventing lessons to providing worms to avid fishermen.”
