Kermit and Miss Piggy Desktop Figures Makes it Easy to Take Your Green

A big staple of my childhood was the Muppets, be it on Sesame Street or The Muppet Show. The stalkerish Miss Piggy used to creep me out; I just wanted her to leave my bro Kermit alone. It probably would have been easier being green if Piggy wasn’t in the picture.

Fans can soon get their hands on these UDF mini-figures from Medicom to celebrate their love for the Muppets. Piggy is up and walking around, decked out in pearls and hot for Froggy. Our green pal Kermit the Frog (Hi Ho Everyone!) is sitting on a box, legs crossed hoping to avoid the pig.

 

Shipping for the figures is a long way off in November 2019, but you can pre-order on Entertainment Earth now for just $11.99 each.

This Self-defense Coin Purse Is Gonna Hurt

It’s not every day that you see a coin purse that is also a weapon. The EASYANT Mini Outdoor EDC Coin Purse Bag Men Utility Self-Defense Multi-Tool is just that. It’s also a mouthful. And possibly illegal. And probably a knock-off.

Yes, this is a coin purse and a self-defense tool in one. It’s made for men even though real men don’t carry coin purses.

This leather coin purse is small enough to fit onto your belt and yet big enough to deliver some pretty hardcore smacks on bad people trying to steal your spare change.You know when you’re in prison and you put soap in a sock and beat people with it? No? Just me? Anyway putting coins in a leather purse like this one is kinda like that. It’s gonna hurt like hell.

The purse is handcrafted from thick distressed leather, with a zippered closure to keep the coins inside as you deliver your street justice. It’s designed for fastening it to your belt with a single snap, allowing it to be swiftly released when you need it.

It looks to me like it should be longer. At this size, I’m not sure you can really do maximum damage. I’m thinking if it was longer, it would be more effective. Still, it’s going to leave a nasty mark.

This personal protection purse is $39.99 over on Amazon. Keep in mind that blackjack-style weapons are prohibited in many states, so you’ll want to check your local laws before picking one up.
