At this point, it seems increasingly unlikely any of the Muppet pre-orders will be released. Apparently, EB Games has canceled a bunch of DST pre-orders. The list seemed to cover all items the sell, but there may be a few products still coming. I received an email from DST customer service saying my two orders from their website were canceled, including both in stock and pre-order items. But, my pre-orders through bbts and ee haven't been canceled yet. I assume that's coming soon, though.

It's so disappointing.

There is a small chance that Uncle Deadly and Pepe will ship if they were already on their way as Zach kept saying. An even smaller chance of Sweetums. There is zero chance of Lips and Lew which is too bad because I really wanted those 2 over Pepe and Deadly.

I wonder if Sweetums didn't jump Deadly and Pepe in production order based on number of pre-orders. I wouldn’t be surprised if none of the figures made it far into production, likely not even to the tooling stage. During their 25th anniversary livestream, Chuck mentioned that pre-orders of the Deadly and Pepe set were low. My bbts pre-order was recently shifted back to Q4 2025. Sweetums is still showing July. Maybe he could get released. The fact that both pre-orders are sold out at bbts suggests to me that a quantity for production was finalized with the factory. Maybe the figures will show up on AliExpress or something. But, I assume bbts will be canceling both orders within the next two weeks, sadly.

I feel bad for anyone who sold their Palisades Sweetums with the assumption they would get their DST Sweetums.

Also, Zach from DST kept saying these were on their way and shipping out. At one point he said they were on a boat, I believe. So... were these ever actually produced? If so, where did they end up? Sitting in a factory or on a dock somewhere?

Yeah, I've been thinking that same thing. It's kind of unfathomable we never got a packaged shot of Uncle Deadly & Pepe.
