LEGO 71035 Minifigures The Muppets Limited Edition Collection 6 Pack Mystery Bag Set from 12 to Collect with Toy Kermit the Frog & Miss Piggy

Product Information

With 36 packs in each case and twelve characters in this series, we expect each case to contain three full sets. We say all this to explain why the limitations of the LEGO Group’s existing colour palette are easy to forgive when it comes to these characters, whether it’s Fozzie Bear or Dr. By the time The Muppet Show debuted in 1976, Rowlf had assumed the role of resident pianist, and his LEGO minifigure is appropriately accompanied by sheet music, ingeniously printed on a book cover to allow him to grip it better than a standard 2×3 tile.

When the episode ends, we get a gag of them both asleep in their box holding “snore cards,” which comes here in the form of a printed tile. It works within the context of the rest of this particular series, but does it work within the context of LEGO as a medium? One of Kermit’s most iconic moments is him picking his banjo in the swamp while singing “Rainbow Connection” at the beginning of The Muppet Movie.Delivering 12 of Jim Henson’s most iconic characters, the Muppets are finally making their brick-built debut with a series of LEGO minifigures.

Beaker’s accessory is some lab equipment made from a light-bluish gray minifigure radio with a printed tile attached. Sweden never strikes you as one of the culinary capitals of the world, but the Muppets wouldn’t be complete without their Swedish Chef, his basic grasp of a handful of english words, and accessories that include a Lego whisk and smiling tomato. While her guitar is appropriate for her main role in Electric Mayhem – she’s the band’s bassist – she’s also played tambourine, and even fronted on trumpet and trombone for the orchestra on occasion, so a second instrument would have really topped things off.There’s no telling as of now when we’ll see the Muppets minifigures make their LEGO debut, though it should likely be in the coming months. Perhaps they needed those detailed heads for how plain they otherwise are, though, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. There are some pretty novel inclusions like a printed Miss Piggy tile, Monster drum kit, and a little pumpkin to pair with the Swedish Chef.
