Title: Muppet Star Wars Action Figures!
Post by: spaltor on October 05, 2011, 08:22:55 AM
Disney is releasing a new set of of articulated action figures of the Muppets as the Star Wars characters.  (It is NOT the set that was out a few years ago and sold all together in one box set.)  They're technically a Disney Parks Exclusive set, sold in four 2-packs for about $19 each.  I was at WDW this weekend, and they were not yet on the shelves, but a castmember said that they'd be available "this month."

I say, they're "technically" a Park Exclusive because there is a Mail/Phone order line for Disney Parks Merchandise.  If anyone else is interested, you can call 407-363-6200 and have them shipped to you.  I'll be calling weekly until I can get them.  :)

1: Kermit as Luke, Piggy as Leia
2: Link Hogthrob as Han Solo, Fozzie as Chewbacca
3: Bunsen Honeydew as R2D2, Beaker as C3PO
4: Sam the Eagle as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Gonzo as Darth Vader (with Camilla as a Stormtrooper)

FYI: Turns out the number has changed.  It's actually 877-560-6477.

On the phone with them right now - looks like it will be a while longer...

You mean they're on the shelves at Disneyland?  That's weird.  WDW and Cast Services both said they weren't yet available.  Maybe I'll have to call them directly.  Trying to use a friend's castmember discount, too.  ;)

Hmmm maybe it was another mash up.. I know I saw Muppet Star Wars but they might have been bigger versions.
