    Kermit Chaser or Park 1 Kermit?

    Before I pose my question I want to apologize to Sledge for putting this in the General Discussion section (I didn't know if it should go in the Muppets or Park section, but you can move it however you feel is necessary).

    Anyways...I'm curious to know:
    Which Kermit figure do people like more?
    Park 1 or Muppets?
    Vote and explain your answer

    I personally like the park 1 Kermit, i don't like the way the eyes are on the chaser Kermit and really don't like them painting the ears white to represent blank space.

    Yeah. And it kinda looks like he is sticking his tongue out.

    SAME! I don't really care for any of the vinyls that have painted ears representing the blank space.

    To me, the park 1 Kermit is the better of the two. I like where his eyes are. The chaser one is a little weird with the eyes on top of the head.

    Chaser Kermit, because it doesnt look like someone squeezed him till his eyes popped out. I still like the Park 1 Kemrit though.

    I voted for Park 1 Kermit.
    I think he has a cuter face than the chaser
    and the eyes are more appealing.

    I like Park 1 kermit better, better use of space. But I do like the bling on the Kermit chaser.

    I'm with you, I do like Kermit in the tux, I have some other Kermit collectibles with him in the tux and always cool to see him bond style ;)

    I voted for both. I can't put Kermit against Kermit. LOL. They are both unique and fun designs either way!

    Agreed. I like that on the Park 1 Kermit he used the entire figure (with eyes on the ears) where on the chaser the ears are not really used. However they have 2 key things in common: 1-They're both awesome, 2-I dont have either one

    kermie

    Yea, I have to go with PARK 1 Kermit. I was lucky enough to get one when they first came out, and just prefer him over the chaser. Might have to do with the eye placement. Oddly enough he seems to sell for a higher price than the chaser does so far. probably will continue to, just like the rest of series 1

    Definitely Park 1. Using the ears for his eyes is what makes it so clever and unique.

    I presonally like them both. The Park 1 Kermit is a little more nostalgic because it was part of that first set and I do like how the eyes were done on the Park 1 version better, but I absolutely love that anniversary tuxedo on the Muppet version. I picked both!

    I can't decide since I haven't seen the new Kermit in person yet. But he IS bedazzled!

    Park 1 Kermit of COURSE.

    ALSO, did anyone ELSE notice that the box and all the artwork to the Muppets shows the Kermit design from Park1, NOT the chaser?

    See in the bottom left here, clearly the Park1 Vinylmation design... very misleading. Then again, I saw kids that noticed the Gonzo on the BOTTOM of the box and say that he must be in there somewhere, and he's not.

    Misleading? How? It's not like the image included on the box is claiming that Kermit is in there.

    The bottom right corner clearly shows that they didn't reveal the last design at that point.

    Voted for the chaser. We blind boxed at D Street today. Husband bought one and with only 4 boxes left in the case he decided to buy another and behold the jewel of muppets. Has to be my favorite. Made our day!! Props to hubby. Keep up finding chasers. We now have 6 muppets we've collected. The trading at D Street is a great help as well.
