If you are a Disney pin collector or trader, you know there is no better feeling than to get an exclusive pin or a pin set that is on a limited run. Now, it looks like D23 is releasing some very limited edition pins — and best of all, they are Muppet themed!
If you always dreamed of having a pirate-themed pin set featuring Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear, you need to look no further! Unfortunately, this pin set is exclusive to D23 members, so if you are not a member you will not be able to purchase the set. Too bad Miss. Piggy isn’t there, too.
The pins are being sold to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Muppets Treasure Island and there will only be 1,500 released. Each pin is being sold separately at a cost of $12.99.
As the pins will be exclusive to D23 gold members only, those who are able to purchase can head to shopDisney at 7 a.m. PT on February 15, 2021.

D23 just debuted two stunning, gold enamel pins to commemorate Muppet Treasure Island, featuring Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear. These pins will be available exclusively to D23 Gold Members on shopDisney at 7 a.m. PT on February 15, 2021.
Also, today D23 launched an exclusive 30% off discount with BoxLunch which Gold Members can use on their incredible line of Muppets product.
(And stay tuned next week for a fantastic in-depth Muppets episode of D23 Inside Disney podcast!)

With so many milestones to celebrate this year, from the 25th anniversary of Muppet Treasure Island and the 30th anniversary of Dinosaurs, to The Muppet Show arriving on Disney+, it takes a whole week of Muppet mayhem to express our excitement! Host Leigh Slaughter (Vice President, Muppets Studio) is joined by the legendary Bill Barretta (puppeteer, Pepe, Rowlf, Swedish Chef), Dave Goelz (puppeteer, Gonzo, Bunsen Honeydew, Waldorf), Kevin Bishop (actor, Jim Hawkins) and Brian Henson (puppeteer, director, producer, Chairman of The Jim Henson Company) for a fun, wide-ranging conversation that looks back at Disney Legend Jim Henson and the long and successful collaboration between The Muppets and Disney.
