More new Kermit the Frog merchandise has hopped into Walt Disney World Resort this week. We previously found a Kermit the Frog cookie jar, watch, and earrings.
Kermit the Frog Merchandise
At Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, we spotted the new Kermit the Frog plush, crop top, bucket hat, and keychain. We’ve also seen the bucket hat at DisneyStyle in Disney Springs, along with the Kermit the Frog hoodie (which has been selling out quickly). Some items have also been in Port of Entry at EPCOT.
Kermit the Frog Plush – $29.99
The plush looks just like the Kermit puppet, with a soft green body, a felt collar, and round bulbous eyes.
His feet and legs are just as floppy as you would expect.
He’s created to perfectly sit on a shelf or toy box.
Kermit the Frog Crop Top – $34.99
The crop top is simple — white with Kermit pictured shrugging on the chest.
Kermit is giving a big shrug in the graphic.
The back is blank.
Kermit the Frog Bucket Hat – $29.99
The bucket hat is black with an all-over pattern of Kermit images and his autograph.
The brim continues the Kermit pattern, but the inside of the hat is blank and black.
It has black strings on the back to adjust the fit.
Kermit the Frog Hoodie – $59.99
The hoodie is green, with an image of Kermit shrugging on the front.
He appears to be rising out of the large front pocket.
It’s a pullover hoodie.
Kermit the Frog Keychain – $11.99
Lastly, the keychain charm is shaped like Kermit’s head, with his autograph along his collar. It comes on a golden chain with a green ring.
The Muppets at Walt Disney World
Kermit the Frog and the Muppets have had a permanent presence at Walt Disney World Resort since the opening of Muppet*Vision 3D at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in 1991. The show was directed by Jim Henson and was one of the last projects the iconic puppeteer worked on before his death in 1990. The show has been mostly unchanged since its debut, but new projection mapping effects were added recently.
The Muppets have been represented with various other shows, attractions, and eateries since The Walt Disney Company acquired the brand in 2004. A live show titled “The Muppets Present… Great Moments in American History” debuted in the Liberty Square section of Magic Kingdom in 2016 but closed in late 2019.
In 2016, Pizza Planet at Disney’s Hollywood Studios became PizzeRizzo ahead of the opening of Toy Story Land. The Liberty Inn dining location in The American Adventure at EPCOT received a Sam the Eagle-inspired overhaul in 2020 when it became Regal Eagle Smokehouse: Craft Drafts & Barbecue Restaurant.
The Muppets Mobile Lab, a free-roaming audio-animatronic featuring Dr. Benson Honeydew and Beaker, appeared at EPCOT in 2016. The two characters currently appear at the park (in video form) in the Odyssey Pavilion as hosts of the Brew-Wing Lab, a booth offered as part of the 2023 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival.
Kermit and Miss Piggy will host a show at the Theater of the Stars at Disney’s Hollywood Studios during offerings of Disney Jollywood Nights, a holiday party that will run on select nights from November 11 through December 20.
