Here are some of the OPI nail polishes from the MUPPETS collection. Six of these are glitters which mostly have those coveted hexagon glitters, and the other six have creams with shimmer and some have glass flecks. In this entry, I will be talking about the glitter polishes.

Rainbow Connection
Fresh Frog of Bel-Air
Divine Swine
Gone Gonzo!
Excuse Moi!
What I can say is that these have mostly hexagon glitters and smaller round glitters. I did not swatch them alone on my nails because I figured they would look hideous. These are glitters for layering and I don't think they are to be worn alone, since they tend to look - incomplete without a colored base. These look great over cream or shimmer nail polish because the depth of the glitters' colors and their shine and radiance are enhanced. I swatched them alone on nail wheels, though, so you can still see how they look when applied by themselves.
Swatches: No Base

Gettin' Ms. Piggy With It over Wocka Wocka!
Gettin' Miss Piggy With It is a beautiful red glitter suspended in a clear base with larger red and silver hex glitters. This looks so festive, this might be my staple holiday color for this year. I love it layered over Wocka Wocka!. This is weird because I am not usually a fan of red color, let alone glitter, but this is quite mesmerizing.
Rainbow Connection over Designer...de Better
Rainbow Connection is your quintessential rainbow glitter top coat. It has varied sizes of different-hued glitters. I have Happy Birthday from Deborah Lippmann, and for some reason I prefer Happy Birthday. This is still pretty though, and would be great layered over either a white or black polish.
Fresh Frog of Bel-Air over Warm & Fozzie
Fresh Frog of Bel-Air is a nice emerald green glitters on a clear base with larger silver hex glitters. This is great over teal, green, or even bronzes or golds as I did here with Warm & Fozzie.
Divine Swine over Meep Meep Meep
Divine Swine is a purple and pink glitter with larger hex glitter. I am not too fond of this although I am a sucker for purples. It's pretty, but for some reason I am not that drawn to it.
Gone Gonzo! over Swimsuit...Nailed It!
I layered Gone Gonzo! over one of my favorite blue OPI polishes ever, Swimsuit...Nailed It! from the Miss Universe collection. I actually like the result. It is a light blue glitter in a clear base with larger silver hex glitters.
Excuse Moi! over Pepe's Purple Passion
The glitters in Excuse Moi! are finer than the other polishes from this collection, so this applies more opaque. I don't see large hex glitters in this one, just mostly small round silver and multi-colored glitters.
All in all, stay far away from the first six polishes of the Muppets collection if you don't like glitter. They are great for layering and for making an old, boring nail polish look new and interesting. My top favorite has got to be Gettin' Miss Piggy With It, and Fresh Frog of Bel-Air. Loving the names as well.

If you have time, could you swatch the glitter polishes over the cream ones in complementary colors as opposed to the "matching" ones? I'd like to see if the glitter colors will pop out more.
I love the last picture!
