It’s time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights…

This is the first time I’d heard about this, but Muppet Central have revealed that Muppet actions figures based on the Star Wars characters are scheduled for release later on this year and will be sold exclusively at the Disney Theme parks’ gift shops.

The planned figures include Beaker as C-3PO, Fozzie Bear as Chewbacca, Miss Piggy as Princess Leia, Kermit the Frog as Luke Skywalker, Gonzo the Great as Darth Vader (or Dearth Nadir as known in the Muppet-universe) and Rizzo the Rat as Yoda. The panel at “Celebration IV” even shared some concept art for the figures.
