It looks like there is a variant for the Snowth figure in the newly released Muppets 3 set. It’s just a mouth change, but, it makes an awesome set of three with the main guy. I gotta have this!

What do you think of this variant?

Rumored Release Dates and Series: Muppets, Masks and Surf

Some rumored release dates, and one never before heard of series, were posted by Vinylmation Kingdom. Remember, these are not confirmed by Disney, but let’s take a look.

May 20: Masks Series
We hered rumblings of this series a few months ago, now we have a rumored release date and a leaked photo posted by Vinylmation World.

Looks like we have: Cowboy, Theater, Ninja, Bank Robber, Hockey Player, Spa, Kabuki, Surgeon, Scuba, Beauty Sleep, Villain.

June 24: Mickey Surfs
We have to assume it will be similar to Wild West or Disney Tunes. I should take Disney characters and put them in a beach theme.

July 26: Muppets 3
Yay! Here are some previews we saw back a Mickey’s Circus.

Reporter Kermit

I think this is my favorite of the set. I also think this might be a copyright problem, but I don’t care! He HAS to come with an accessory microphone! Please!

Gonzo the Great

My second favorite of the set. The cape is almost, almost awesome enough to forgive the lack of Star Wars 2 chaser nose.

Animal

Similar to the 9″ figure from the 2nd series, I hope it comes with a drumstick!

Liberty Piggy

Kinda fun, if we hadn’t seen this type of figure before.

Captain Sam

I think this is from Muppets Treasure Island, but I’m definitely getting this one for my dad (although he already has the 9″ version).

Beauregard

He needs a mop accessory. I also think they could put some crazy hair in the ears a little to do something with them!

Newsman

The maps in the ears with the brown borders is absolutely perfect. Love his look.

Uncle Deadly

He looks ugly, mean and tattered… just as he should.

Crazy Harry

Great figure! I kinda want a a stick of dynamite as an accessory!

Mahna Mahna


Looks great! Can’t wait to get this and two Snowths!
Snowth

This HAS to be the triplet!
