“Leave or be doomed!”
That’s the slogan behind a brand-new merchandise collection that is giving one of The Muppets’ most underrated characters his moment in the spotlight.
Mickey’s of Glendale, the exclusive Walt Disney Imagineering campus store, has released The Uncle Deadly Collection, a limited-edition merchandise line celebrating the fan-favorite blue dragon from The Muppet Show. The collection is available exclusively online while supplies last and features apparel, accessories, collectibles, and more.
And this may be one of the most unique Muppets merchandise collections we’ve seen in quite some time!
The Collection Is Inspired by Uncle Deadly
For those unfamiliar with the character, Uncle Deadly is the theatrical blue dragon best known for his appearances on The Muppet Show and his more recent role as wardrobe manager and trusted assistant to Miss Piggy.
The new collection embraces Uncle Deadly’s dramatic personality with a rich purple-and-gold color palette, theatrical references, and nods to his “Phantom of the Muppet Theatre” persona.
Uncle Deadly LUG Crossbody Bag
The centerpiece of the collection is a LUG crossbody bag priced at $64.95.
The bag features a deep burgundy color scheme, an embroidered Uncle Deadly face on the front flap, a golden “Phantom of the Muppet Theatre” ticket charm, a light blue adjustable strap, and a gold spiderweb-patterned interior lining.
The bag also includes additional interior storage compartments and themed details throughout the design. Given the popularity of Disney-themed LUG bags, this may end up being one of the first items to sell out!
Uncle Deadly Spirit Jersey
The collection also includes an Uncle Deadly Spirit Jersey for $79.95.
The burgundy jersey features Uncle Deadly artwork, the collection logo, puff embroidery details, themed artwork across the garment, and matching colors that coordinate with the LUG bag.
The design continues the collection’s theatrical and gothic-inspired aesthetic.
Uncle Deadly Collectible Drinking Glass
For collectors, Mickey’s of Glendale is also offering an Uncle Deadly Collectible Drinking Glass priced at $14.95.
The glass features a portrait of the Uncle Deadly character-inspired artwork, and text highlighting elements of Uncle Deadly’s Muppet Show history. It’s one of the more affordable items in the collection and could make a fun addition to any Muppets display.
Uncle Deadly Patch Set
The collection includes a themed patch set featuring four embroidered patches for $30.95: a standing Uncle Deadly patch, a crouching Uncle Deadly patch, a “Phantom of the Muppet Theatre” admit-one ticket patch, and a “Leave or Be Doomed!” slogan patch.
Each patch continues the collection’s purple-and-gold branding and theatrical theme.
Limited-Edition Uncle Deadly Pin
Completing the collection is a limited-edition Disney pin priced at $32.95.
The pin features Uncle Deadly, Fozzie Bear, additional Muppets characters, a vintage television-inspired frame design, and a special Uncle Deadly Collection backing card artwork.
According to collectors online, the pin was released as a limited edition and has already generated significant interest among Muppets fans.
