New Kermit Merchandise Makes Being Green Easy

Kermit the Frog is planning to star in a brand-new line of merchandise and apparel. Disney is planning the launch of a new product line this spring entitled "Think Green". At the center of the line will be the one and only Kermit the Frog and, as the name suggests, the merchandise will be green. While the items will be green in color, many of the items will also sport messages of "green" thinking and environmentalism, and several items will even be produced using environmentally-friendly methods and materials. I have been told that the product line will cover a large variety of items - including clothing, accessories, collectibles and even some home decor. Products and merchandise in the "Think Green" line will be available online at DisneyShopping.com, plus select items may also be offered through other retailers and several exclusive items will also be available at some of the Disney theme parks and resorts. I will keep you updated with more information on this new line of green merchandise that you may want to spend some of your hard-earned green on.

Some of this line has already appeared in other retailers. Target has a tote bag and Wal-mart has a jacket & sweat pants type outfit. Can't wait to see more!

I liked it better when the Muppetd where about more than just Kermit & Piggy.

It appears the other characters are making more appearances, but I agree that I'd rather see even more of an ensemble cast effort in marketing than just the frog. The truth is the frog sells much bigger than the rest. The pig collects dust.

Even back in the Muppet Show days, Kermit has always been the one dominating in the Muppet merchandise department. This isn't a new phenonomon. There has always been more Kermit stuff. Kermit has has more products than any other single character out there. Piggy is probably a far #2, and even the other major characters like Fozzie and Gonzo haven't gotten any where near as much in terms of individual stuff. The frog sells.
