Kermit vs. Big Bird: Who's the more iconic Muppet?

With the hype of the new Muppet movie coming out this November, I think it'd be fun to debate which Muppet is more iconic.  
 

The first, the original, the mean green machine: KERMIT THE FROG! 
Plus, Kermit's the Batman

To be fair Big Bird is not really a muppet.  Just being a puppet designed by Jim Henson does not make one a muppet.  Or else all the Dark Crystal or Labyrinth characters would have to be considered as well.  Still I think Kermit wins for being successful in numerous different series.

Kermit is more well known and recognized in my opinion and therefore more iconic.

Big Bird is an O.G.

Big Bird isn't a Muppet.He's in Sesame Street.So the iconic status for the Muppet belongs to Kermit.
