Prep & Landing Papercraft


Can't wait for Prep and Landing to debut Tuesday night?   Check out this page at family.go.com to download papercraft projects including a 3-D Lanny, a 3-D Wayne, a playset, ornaments, a get ready for Santa kit, gingerbread man decoder, and more.

Vinylmation Clothes


Ok, I gotta admit that these work much better as clothing designs then they do as stupid little collectible figures or pins. Still don't see why we have to have this junk instead of cool designs of the actual characters.

Different packaging on different continents


While putting together posts for A Disney Christmas Collectors Guide I found that the same ornament set is being sold in the USA and the UK.  The top picture is the one from the US and the bottom picture is from the UK.  Which packaging would yo rather have?

Snowglobe Christmas Card


Disneystore.co.uk is selling this 3D Christmas Card of Tinker Bell and are donating 25% of the proceeds to the Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity.  All you UK readers should buy one for everyone you know.  Umm,  that includes me:)

Tron Mickey


This is kind of interesting.  Awhile back we mentioned the vinyl Mickey as Tron figure by Medicom.  It was available at Sideshow Collectibles and has sold out on their site at the suggested retail of 64.95.

Now D23 is offering it on Disneystore.com for 54.95 but it is only available to D23 members.  The way the website reads, if you didn't previously know about the figure, you would think it was a D23 exclusive but it is not.  Disney never acually claims that it is.  They list it as a D23 exclusive offer.

Prep and Landing Plush


I don't usually consider plush to be very collectible but these are so tinsel.  These 20" plush are on sale for $10 each on DisneyStore.com. 
Don't miss Prep and Landing's premiere on ABC on December 8th.
