Hey guys, I just went to Hallmark and found they had some new Muppet items out.

Here is a link to a picture of my Muppet haul:

A lot of cool new stuff, including two new Cubeez boxes/tins of The Swedish Chef and Rowlf the Dog. I will also post a message with more information of each of the items I found. A bit over priced, but great for any Muppet lover. Something for the Christmas or Hanukah lists.

I forgot to tell something about the 2 sound buttons. Both have an on/off switch, so that you can save the battery life.

I wonder if there will be another wave of Muppet items from Hallmark?
Does anyone know?

Does your Kermit Calendar have a crease mark on Kermit's face?
Hallmark also have Swedish Chef and Beaker figures in the style of the Take a Leap of Faith figure.


A big thank you to Muppet Stuff for the pics.

Thank you "Muppetperson" for posting the 2 pictures of Beaker and Swedish Chef figures! I'm now on a mission to find these 2 Muppet items. I'm calling it "Operation Hallmark Hunt".

As for the crease mark on Kermit's face on the calendar - My Kermit doesn't have any odd creases. I do see a weird crease on the neck line, but I think that represents the authentic Kermit puppet. You know, where Jim's or Steve's hand/wrist would be bending Kermit's head. The detail in some of these Hallmark figurines is incredible.

So your Kermit doesn't have any creases above the mouth like this one?
There are a few that do, so it must be a fault in a limited batch.

Still on my "Hallmark Hunt" for the Swedish Chef and Beaker figures, but no luck so far. I've now been to 8 different Hallmark stores, but nobody has these 2 figures. Has anyone seen these at a Hallmark near you? One Hallmark store told me these figures should have come out in September, but were never shipped to them. Hopefully, they will arrive soon!
