It’s time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights! Disney Store Australia has just unveiled brand new plushies of The Muppets! I know, I know. You’re probably thinking “okay Chloe, I don’t LIVE in Australia. What now?” Great news: they are slated for a worldwide release this summer!
This release is a pretty big deal for our fine felt friends, as it marks the first time since Disney produced official plush toys of the beloved Jim Henson characters for the Disney Stores since Muppets Most Wanted in 2014. 12 years later, we finally have a resurgence of the Muppety merch we’ve been longing for. I can’t wait to see what else is in store, but in the meantime, let’s check out the early release below!

Sadly, for non Australian residents, Disney Store Australia orders cannot be shipped outside of Australia or New Zealand. However, these are expected to be available worldwide this summer. In fact, these plushies will likely be available at Rock Around the Shop, once Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets opens later this summer at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
