Looks like the kermit steiff special edition plush isnt coming now till December.
Yes, that is the recommended retail price.Steiff is an up market brand.I am getting 10 % off mine($238.50) plus free shipping.muppet wiki says that it's gonna be like $265. is that true? cause that's a little much for a plush.
I still think the Steiff plush is hiding.The Steiff plush is basically for high end collectors. You could get a photo puppet replica Kermit for less than that. Really you could. Probably even Gonzo and Animal too.
And last time I checked, and it was only the proto, it was ugly. The Macy's Kermit cost about 15 bucks, and it was a million times better than this one.
Again, it's a vanity buy for high class toy collectors with a lot of cash. I really wish some other company would go back to making good quality muppet plush the way Sababa did.
Yeah... Steiff completists or rich toy collectors that want high end stuff because they can afford it. It's pretty sad this is the only plush we know is coming out... even those ugly crane game muppets look better. Of course, to win one of those things, you have to spend the same amount of money in quarters in one of those machines....This product makes no sense except for the weathy obsessive collector who must have everything. I won't be getting it, but I do hope they make it look attractive.
