I was wondering what was the first muppet pin that Disney made.
On Pin Pics, the first Muppet pin listed is pin 437-Muppet Vision 3D, featuring Miss Piggy,Kermit and Fozzie behind a banner, released in 2000.However Pin Pics arent in release order, so does anyone know if this is the first, or which is?

Nobody know? Apparently the Muppet 3D Kermit clapper pin is older, but the reviewer doesnt know the year.Found out the clapper pin was re released in 2003, but the first batch doesnt have a year on it.

Just checked out the Collectibles guide here, and the kermit 3D Clapper pin was released in 1991, so that is the first muppet pin Disney released, before they owned the Muppets.
This pin was re released in 2003, which has the year on the back.The first has Henson written on the back.
