Kermit the Frog Wearing Mickey Mouse Ears Pin

This charming Open Edition pin features the iconic Kermit the Frog from The Muppets, whimsically sporting a classic black pair of Mickey Mouse ear hats. Originally released on August 31, 2008, this pin was part of the Muppets with Mickey Ear Hats Boxed Set, which celebrated the beloved Jim Henson characters interacting with Disney's most famous icon. Kermit, who first debuted in 1955 and became the central figure of The Muppet Show in 1976, is captured here with his signature friendly smile and collar. As an Open Edition release sold at both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World, this pin was highly accessible to fans during its production run. The fusion of the Muppet franchise—which Disney acquired in 2004—with the classic Mickey Mouse ear hat design remains a popular theme among collectors. The pin is rendered in a clean, enamel style that highlights Kermit's vibrant green complexion against the stark black of the Mickey ears. Because it was part of a boxed set, finding the original packaging can sometimes add to the item's appeal for completionists. Its simple, classic design makes it a staple for any Muppet or character-crossover collection. Collectors value this piece for its nostalgic appeal and the clever way it bridges the gap between the classic Muppet world and the Disney park aesthetic.
