Someone left a comment yesterday pointing me to another blog called The Disney Store Shelves. If you like my blog, then you are going to love this one. It is run by Juan Ortiz, one of the fine talented people designing items for The Disney Stores, including snowglobes. Juan talks about past.current and future items at the Stores as well as discussing the design process and showing off lots of original artwork from himself and his fellow creators. It's a must read blog for any and every Disney collector. Juan is currently showing pics of some upcoming globes including Oliver & Company, 101 Dalmations and Fantasia.

Haunted Mansion?

This wonderful figurine with sound & motion is advertised as a halloween haunted house but its similarity the WDW Haunted Mansion is unmistakable. It too is from Hawthorne Village. It costs $149.95 which in my opinion seems a bit much. Maybe I can get it off ebay sometime in the future for a more reasonable price. Click here to read the details.
