Hey, howdy, hey! Welcome back to another dip into the vintage treasures hiding out on my eBay Watchlist. This time around, the focus is firmly on Muppet Christmas collectibles, from festive ornaments to giftable throwbacks that feel tailor-made for fans of Kermit, Miss Piggy, and the ghosts of Christmas past.
These pieces have been sitting on my watchlist long enough, and with Christmas creeping up fast, it only felt right to share the details while there’s still a chance to snag them. Whether you’re hunting for a nostalgic ornament to hang on the tree, a conversation-starting collectible, or a gift for the Muppet fan who quotes “Light the lamp, not the rat!” year-round, there’s plenty of merry, Muppet-filled goodness ahead.
No eBay search consisting of “vintage muppets” is safe from the Muppet Babies Christmas plushes that were once available from McDonalds in 1988. Fozzie, Kermit, and Miss Piggy are all out there, but this find has a great face with a price to match:
Available HERE | $8
Celebrate baby’s first Christmas with this adorable Miss Piggy mug from Enesco:
Available HERE | $25
Time to decorate the tree! In your thrift hunts, you may discover a set of Muppet head ornaments originally made in Korea. All of them are fantastic, but Miss Piggy shines above the rest — quite literally — with her glitter-accented paper angel wings and metallic halo.
Available HERE | $16.50
From that same set, Rolf is another favorite. Vintage merch featuring him is pretty hard to come by. Just look at those ears!
Available HERE | $14
Looking to dress up that “ugly” Christmas sweater in a Muppet-y way? Looking for something more unique than your typical Disney pin? Look no further!
Available HERE | $29.99
I’ve been getting into card-making and scrapbooking to capture memories from the year, and stickers have always been one of my favorite things to collect. When I discover an occasional treasure trove of vintage Muppet stickers, it’s a good day. This seller has several sealed packages of Muppet Christmas sticker sheets from the 80s for a pretty okay price. Grab ’em while you can!
Available HERE | $18
And now, to celebrate the greatest retelling of A Christmas Carol, this rare piece of 1992 memorabilia features the Charles Dickens, Rizzo the Rat, Fozziwigg, and the Cratchits on a melamine cookie plate from Duncan Hines.
Available HERE | $119.99
Last but certainly not least, we have one weird (yet cute) paper mache Fozzie bear ornament from the 70s. I thought he was homemade at first, but he’s stamped with an official Henson tag!
Available HERE | $69.95
That’s all for today, I hope you enjoyed this week’s roundup of Muppet goods. Let me know if you’d like to see another theme or character feature in the future — I’m always up for more specific hunts. Happy Christmas!
