2024 Disney Parks Character Scoops - Kermit and Fozzie Bear

This enchanting 2024 Disney Parks Character Scoops pin features the beloved Muppet characters, Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear, creatively depicted as delicious ice cream scoops. Kermit, with his iconic green hue, forms the top scoop, while the orange Fozzie Bear serves as the bottom scoop, both nestled in a charming pink waffle cone. This pin is part of the 2024 "Character Scoops" monthly series, a popular collection released at both Walt Disney World (WDW) and Disneyland Resort (DLR). A unique feature of this series is that the top scoop, in this case, Kermit, is a removable pin, allowing collectors to interchange it with other top scoops from the series and customize their ice cream cone creations. Kermit the Frog, a creation of the legendary Jim Henson, first appeared in 1955 and achieved global recognition as the host of "The Muppet Show," which premiered in 1976, and as a staple on "Sesame Street". Fozzie Bear, the endearing, joke-telling comedian, also debuted on "The Muppet Show" in 1976, quickly becoming known for his signature "Wocka wocka!". The Muppets franchise was acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 2004, further integrating these classic characters into Disney Parks merchandise. This specific pin, the 11th release in the series, is a Limited Edition (LE) of 4000 pieces and was released on November 19, 2024.
