Disney Vinylmation Muppet figures are coming late Winter 2010. These will be exclusive to Disney World and Disneyland. Muppet characters are painted on to a Mickey Mouse body, and have a similar look to Hasbro's Mighty Muggs.
There are 12 figues in the set - Rowlf, Sweetums, Benny Bunny, Rizzo, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, Beaker, Statler, Waldorf, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Swedish Chef, and a chaser figure that will be revealed online once the set is released. I would speculate that this figure is Kermit. Vinylmation - Muppets |

I actually love the Sweetums figure. I would pick him up.
I'm actually kind of shocked that Kermit, Gonzo and Animal are not included in this wave. I guess they are hoping it to be enough of a success that they can continue. Not sure about the idea of Kermit being the chase. I could be wrong, but I think it would be someone not as obvious but who fans will still want to collect.

That's a valid point. You don't want to do all the "big stars" right away either, and have interest in the line fizzle out (if they plan another wave that is). However, I still want to see Kermit. |

After furthur research, it seems Kermit was already released in 2008, and Rizzo saw a release where he was dressed as Mickey Mouse in 2009.
