The Gonzo and Rizzo plush set from The Muppet Christmas Carol is a lot more exclusive than it first looked. Disney Store in Spain has listed the set at €120 (about $133), and its listing says only 2,500 will be made worldwide.
What Comes In The Set
The Disney Store Spain listing describes a two-piece set with The Great Gonzo as Charles Dickens and Rizzo the Rat as his hungry sidekick, the pair who narrate the 1992 film. The listing notes the set was created specifically for Disney Store. Gonzo stands about 15 inches tall and Rizzo about 8 inches.
Both have detailed, embroidered features and costumes made to match what they wear in the movie, with a mix of fabrics and textures. Gonzo has his brown top hat with a red band, a blue scarf, a long red coat, a plaid vest and checked trousers. Rizzo wears his small black top hat, a striped scarf and a checked shirt.
The set comes in a windowed gift box with gold details and a scenic backdrop, so it can go straight on a shelf. The box measures roughly 12 by 5 by 15 inches. The plush are polyester and hand wash only, and the listing marks the set as a Disney Store exclusive.
Price And Release
In Spain, the listing shows the set as coming soon, with a sign-up to be notified when it goes on sale. In the U.S., Disney Store has not posted a price yet. The set is due at Disney Store on November 20, the same day The Muppet Christmas Carol plays the El Capitan Theatre with a Brian Henson Q&A.
The 2,500 figure covers the entire worldwide run, so every country that carries the set is drawing from the same small edition. Disney Store prices differ by region, so the U.S. price may not match the euro figure exactly once it is posted. Either way, at around $133 for two plush, this is a collector’s piece rather than a stocking stuffer.
Plan To Be Quick
With Darth on a Hearth already sold out this week, holiday plush is moving fast at Disney Store. If you want Gonzo and Rizzo, have your account signed in and your payment saved before the set goes on sale on November 20.
Gonzo and Rizzo are the heart of the film’s comedy, breaking the fourth wall as they follow Michael Caine’s Scrooge through the story, so a matching pair in their Dickens costumes is an easy pick for Muppet fans.
