Nice--that looks like one of the figures sold many years ago. I got the plastic bank still in the package at a shell shop in Venice, Florida back in 1993 (they had a bunch of them). I was happy to hear that they are making a Vinylmation Orange Bird. The character is also seen quite a bit on...

Haunted Mansion Holiday was my favorite attraction during my 2008 Disneyland visit. With the huge success of Nightmare merchandise, it is puzzling that Walt Disney World does not have something with the characters. I got a pair of Jack Skellington Mickey Mouse ears, which seemed to be the...

I saw the fourth Shrek in 3D yesterday, and thought it was great fun. The highlights for me included a "Carriage Park" (Trailer Park) full of witches, Rumplestilskin, a Chuck E. Cheese style restaurant, obese Puss in Boots, a hidden village of ogres, and Donkey calling the Gingerbread Man...

Shrek 2 is one of my favorite animated films ever. The introduction scene with Puss in Boots really got the movie going, and it just kept getting better and funnier for me from that point. I loved the Fairy Godmother and the magic potion storyline (and the quick spoof of Lumiere and...

I saw this at Books A Million today (I went there because I saw this Thread). They had the book, but it was sealed and $60. I pictured myself buying this, unwrapping it, and discovering it was the original Imagineering book with a couple new pictures. I'm pretty sure you can get it for $36...

I noticed Marvel toys for sale at the Toy Store in Downtown Disney in Florida back in November. Then again, that store has always had lots of toy lines, so maybe they've always sold Marvel stuff there. I think it's funny that those R2D2 light chaser toys (and Star Wars Disney Racers) are for...

Back in 1990, I got my picture taken with Brer Fox outside of Pirates of the Caribbean in Florida (with the green parrot in the background). Splash Mountain had not yet started construction then, so I guess he could go anywhere he wanted. I think it is kind of amusing putting the characters in...

I've never visited DisneyQuest, but I remember reading about Sid's Create A Toy, a game that let you create an action figure out of an assortment of different parts, then buy a kit to assemble the toy. Is this still around? It seems like it would do well at Pixar Place.

With Beauty and the Beast getting a whole new area, wouldn't it be nice for Mrs. Potts to let another character have her snack location? I guess Gurgi from the Black Cauldron doesn't have a chance to regain his refreshment stand, but maybe they could give Robin Hood some recognition.

Hello! Yes, I knew it was you, and I remember that interview! I sent you another message, too. Feel free to visit my blog (that goes for everyone here, too!): http://danalexanderdizmentia.blogspot.com/ I'm thinking about posting some of the old Disney Store Traditions stuff that I still...

Hello Anton! Of course I remember interviewing with you. This is where I found out you used to put on puppet shows (I believe your sister brought this up). I loved puppets, and was disappointed that I did not get to interact with you more. I thought you were the coolest! I don't know if I...

VinylFan92, these are wonderful! I can't believe The Black Cauldron ones! Thanks for posting these pictures.

The What-Not Website is great fun--I'm guessing the Florida location will have some exclusive items. I have a Muppet Monster all designed---I just can't justify spending money on it right now!

They are really going with the Clown overlay for the Barnstormer? What a missed opportunity, in my opinion. I posted an idea on my blog for a Pink Elephants on Parade re-theme for the Barnstormer. http://danalexanderdizmentia.blogspot.com/2010/02/pink-elephants-on-parade-to-replace.html

Slowjack, I do believe I worked with you at The Disney Store at The Riverchase Galleria in 1992 (you may not remember me--I was a high school kid and did not last long). I emailed you, but I'm not sure if it went through.
