Fresh off thier recently released Muppet Show pint glasses, Diamond Select is back with more Muppet Show inspired drinkware - Muppet Show tumblers!
What's the difference between a tumbler and pint? A few dribbles I guess.
These glasses are meant to invoke the style of "fast food glassware of yesteryear" though some of the images/ compositions seen to work better than others.
The ones that work best feature one or two characters, like Bunsen and Beaker:
When more characters are added though, the compositions become less focused.
Such as the Kermit, Piggy, Rowlf, and Scooter glass:
and the one featuring Fozzie, Gonzo, Camilla, Lew Zealand, Statler, and Waldorf:
It may be one of those once you see it I can't be unseen things, but what's with the black hole in the logo's O? I'm pretty sure I know why the designer chose to that, but Kermit, a red curtain, or just clear might have worked better.
I think if Diamond stuck to one or two characters per glass like they did with their Back to The future set:
Or focused on one main character with others in the background, like their Ghostbusters tumblers, the Muppet set would have looked a bit nicer.
All in all though their, not bad looking with Bunsen & Beaker and Swedish Chef being the standouts. The glasses will be available individually available early next year, but you can pre-order them from Amazon using the links above.
