Overview
- The teaser appeared Tuesday in Walt Disney World’s Passholder Buzz card and on the WDW Annual Passholders Instagram account and shows a pond with lily pads, banjo audio and a rainbow reflection that many outlets link to Kermit’s “Rainbow Connection.”
- Disney’s posts promise additional limited-time Passholder perks, specifically a Disney PhotoPass experience and a special sweet treat, but the company has not named the magnet character or published pickup dates or locations.
- Coverage from multiple fan sites treats a Kermit reveal as likely while clearly labeling that idea as speculation because Disney has not officially confirmed the character.
- Past Passholder magnets have been picked up at rotating retail locations such as Creations Shop at EPCOT and Discovery Trading Company at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, which sets expectations for how Disney may distribute this new magnet.
- If the tease does point to Kermit, it would extend a recent Muppets push at Disney’s Hollywood Studios that included the May retheming of Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster and fresh Muppets merchandise, and the next developments to watch are an official character reveal and the announced pickup logistics.
