Help! Muppets Fam!

I recently purchased the Jim Henson Muppet Palisades figure and read that he originally was supposed to come with a puppet Kermit, but because this was the Muppet version of Jim Hinson, the license holder didn’t want a puppet holding a puppet lol. I stumbled upon this picture while researching. So the help I need is finding a little Kermit puppet to fit on this figure’s hand. I would prefer cloth, but I’m open to all suggestions. Thank you!

Edit: this is the best community! Nobody has even commented on any of the others I’ve posted to lol.

Am I the only one who gets emotional about Jim Henson's fantasy creations?

Whenever I think of things like The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth and The Storyteller, it reminds me of how Jim desperately wanted to create these beautiful fantastical worlds. Despite putting his heart and soul into doing that, each of them was a financial failure. Dark Crystal and Labyrinth were box office bombs while Storyteller got stuck as the second half of a weird Muppet Show reboot.

As Jim got older, he wanted to move past the more comedic Muppet stuff, but he was unable to. He was only able to create a handful of serious fantasy productions before his tragic passing.

One of my friends recently called Jim Henson a "comedian". While I get where she was coming from, I don't personally believe he would've wanted to be remembered that way. As time went on, he dipped his toes into more serious writing and each time it was amazing! People just weren't able to appreciate it until after he was gone.

This came up again when I saw a video earlier today of a guy exploring a Henson museum tour when he encountered the majestic Thought Lion puppet. I literally thought to myself that if that was me, I would break down crying in it's presence! I know it's just a puppet, but knowing the history of it all, that lion represents such a bittersweet thing to me.

Been kicking around the idea of mapping out the major media of the Muppet Franchise. Because of how meta the franchise can be, I figured that instead of a strict linear timeline, I'd arrange them by which media contains other media as fiction within it. Would you be interested in this ?

Why is Kermit's character in Muppet Treasure Island named Abraham?

In the source material, Captain Smollett's first name is Alexander. I can't think of any way in which it would be a pun or play on words in context. Does the name 'Alexander' have some offensive connotation in like Australia or something? Was the writer just working from hazy memories of the book and misremembered a name? It's just such a weird tiny meaningless thing to change for seemingly no reason.

* Alice - Miss Piggy

* Ziegler - Fozzie Bear

* Milich - Gonzo

* Milich's Daughter - Camilla the chicken

* Nick Nightingale - Rolf

* Domino - Janice

* Hotel clerk - Scooter

* Red Cloak - Beeker

Jim Henson had never considered that the Storyteller's dog would talk. Anthony Minghella simply assumed that he would talk because it was a Jim Henson production.

What are Statler and Waldorf called in language (other than English)?

The ancestors on my mom's side of the family mainly descended from Mexico, hence why they (including my mom and I) are Hispanic and sometimes speak Spanish. In Mexico and in other Spanish-speaking countries, Statler and Waldorf are called Los Abuelos de Palco, or, The Grandparents in the Box.
