and Crafts 1976-1981 1982-PresentCrayola Claytime (1982)A "Crayola Claytime" shaped container held everything you needed to build your very own Kermit, Gonzo and Fozzie out of clay. The kit includes plastic heads, arms, and legs. Using theses pieces you would shape the clay to build bodies for each of the characters. Also included are cardboard accessories such as Kermit's banjo, Gonzo's chicken and a guitar for Fozzie. Vogue Costumes and Dolls Patterns (1982)Vogue Patterns released these full body costumes for children and a clothing pattern for the Fisher-Price Miss Piggy dress-up doll as well. Kermit Costume This handmade Kermit costume involved a person's head looking through Kermit's mouth. His body is made of felt with a Styrofoam ball cut in half for the eyes. Flippers are kept on the hands and feet with elastic straps. This is a great Kermit costume and a good purchase if you come across these patterns. Fozzie Bear Costume Here's another full body costume pattern. Like Kermit, you would look through Fozzie’s mouth to see. The Fozzie costume pattern came complete with polka dot tie, and little brown fedora. From head to toe, you are covered in Fozzie's fur. Animal Costume The Animal costume is a little fierce and a lot of fun. Animal’s big head and expression are great facsimiles of Animal himself. Animal wears a vest, pants torn at the bottom, and sandals. Although the wearer provides "human" hands and feet, this is still a great looking costume. Miss Piggy Costume The Miss Piggy pattern included all the instructions for you to turn your child into Miss Piggy: an evening gown and gloves, a mask, and full accessories complete with purple eye shadow and golden locks. Miss Piggy Doll Clothes Vogue also released some clothes patterns to fit the Fisher-Price Miss Piggy dress-up doll. This set includes a ballerina outfit with shoes and tutu. Patterns are also included for a workout outfit. Paintable Muppet Figurines (1982)Fundimensions This series included four Muppet figures that you could paint yourself.
