Indeed. Teaser on lego social media - just Kermit minifig peeking out of the Muppet Theatre curtain with ‘nothing to see here, folks’

Not just you. I think it’s distorted with the folds in the leaflet though.

I found just a few packets in my local Target (US). Crazy that they’re out and available before the official reveal! I picked two at random and got Waldorf and the Swedish Chef. Best of luck hunting!

I don’t know anything about Muppets Series being avaaible in USA but I can’t wait for offical reveal / reviews.

Something about the way the heads are done is making me worried that misaligned prints will be more common than usual. Guess we'll see when more people start getting their hands on them.

[The Stud]

A lot of people seem to be finding this series at Target in the US, though I didn’t find any when I went hunting earlier. This really is going to be like the Looney Tunes series last year where Lego was dragging out the reveal while people were already finding the series in stores.

checked the target by me and nothing  gonna try again fri and maybe stop at kohls 2 ive gotten pretty lucky with them 

[jonwil]

I suspect Disney (who own the rights to these characters now IIRC) is the reason the reveal hasn't happened yet, not LEGO.

And why that?

And now all Collectable minifigures are streetdated at target due to the lack of the muppets reveal and target selling them

That's what happens when Target got lazy and gave all minifigures the same product number. haha

They've been doing the same thing for years with a lot of their merchandise.  I remember having a hard time trying to figure out what receipts to use when returning things going back years.  It was always a nightmare finding the right receipt when I needed to return StarWars Action Figures because you can't match any of their receipt codes to the actual UPC codes.
