The Kermit being so stiff is because it was a radio controlled puppet. If you watch some of the behind the scenes stuff on the Jim Henson show and from promo material for muppet vision from the 90s, you can see him messing with one.

The reason Kermit is "moving so stiff" in the finale of Muppetvision is because Jim Henson was actually controlling him from a distance via a mechanism! I believe it was wireless as well, and would allow someone to make hand/muppet mouth movements as the now animatronic puppet talked on screen. I believe it's main use in the film was the fully cgi character for most of the muppetvision show, their movements were controlled by a puppeter, I recall seeing a prototype tested by Henson himself.

It wouldve made more sense to replace the sculpture outside of Dinosaur with the Aladar animatronic.

They missed a good opportunity not to waste an expensive animatronic there.

Kermit at the end of Muppet Vision is controlled off camera by Jim Henson using a “Waldo” which is a remote manipulator. Kermit is therefore a weird little animatronic Kermit controlled by that remote “Waldo”. His head looks weird because Kermit’s head is all flexible fabric and it’s structure is built by the puppeteer raising his middle finger into a curve higher than the rest of his hand/fingers. Because there is no hand in that Kermit, they had to stuff it so it looks oddly round

So as a Disney "nerd" + AA figures fan for my history/ science project I wanted to create our Nations 39 Presidents. I actually had a "sponsor" in the mid 1980's $600 worth of air pistons & valves. I was really either doing Lincoln or Washington. I did drawings (art & technical) These were to be miniature, much like Walt's early Disneylandia. AA figures are VERY expensive. I'm surprised that Dis finally contracted the figs. out after 2012. Mind you, I was a teenager when I wanted to embark on this endeavor. LOL! I agree, the AA in New Management was a poor substitute (It was the only version I saw) being my 1st visit to WDW was in 2001. Thanks Dal, your vids always make me smile! Michael T.
