Gonzo and Rizzo are coming home for Christmas. A limited edition Muppet Christmas Carol plush set starring the film’s two narrators, The Great Gonzo and Rizzo the Rat, releases at Disney Store on November 20.
NEW: The Muppet Christmas Carol Gonzo and Rizzo Plush Set releases at Disney Store on November 20.

Drew the Disney Dude shared the first look on Wednesday afternoon. The promo image shows Gonzo in a brown top hat with a red band, a blue scarf and a red coat over a plaid vest and checked trousers, with one arm raised in a wave. Rizzo stands beside him in a small black top hat, a striped scarf and a checked shirt, waving too. The pair are posed in a snowy holiday window display, and the image carries a “Limited Edition” badge.
The Film’s Two Storytellers
In The Muppet Christmas Carol, Gonzo plays the author Charles Dickens and walks the audience through Scrooge’s story, while Rizzo tags along as himself. Their back-and-forth is a big part of why the 1992 film has become a holiday rewatch staple, so it makes sense that the set pairs them up rather than selling them on their own.
Both plush come dressed for a snowy Christmas, with Gonzo in a top hat and long red coat and Rizzo bundled up in a scarf and a hat of his own.
Part Of A Bigger Muppet Christmas
Disney Store has leaned into The Muppet Christmas Carol this season. It already added Muppet Christmas Carol apparel on October 26, and the store currently lists a line of mini plush from the film, including Kermit as Bob Cratchit, Miss Piggy as Emily Cratchit, Statler and Waldorf as the Marley brothers and Dr. Bunsen Honeydew as a charity collector, on Disney Store.
The Gonzo and Rizzo set adds the film’s narrators to that lineup, and it is the one carrying a limited edition badge in its first look.
A Big Day For The Film
November 20 is a busy day for Muppet fans in general. The same Friday, The Muppet Christmas Carol starts a three-day run at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood as part of its Road to the Holidays series, and director Brian Henson is set to take part in a live Q&A after the 7 p.m. screening.
What We Don’t Know Yet
Disney Store has not posted the listing for the set yet, so the price, the size of each plush and the edition size are still to come.
For anyone planning to pick it up on release day, November 20 is a Friday. Because it is a limited edition, anyone who wants one should check Disney Store early that day.
