New Disney Snowglobe Sneak Peeks

Once again, Velvet is kind enough to provide us look into the Disney snowglobe future.  The Nightmare Before Christmas globe is neat.  I always wondered what all those other holiday lands inside the trees would be like. 

Disney Glass Bottle Collection

Disney now has on their website this collection of fine art glass bottles.  Each one is a limited edition of 500 and 3.5" tall.  I think these are pretty cool but at 99.95 a bottle they must be out of their minds.

New snowglobes at Disneyland Paris

Courtesy of ebay comes these pics of new snowglobes at Disneyland Paris. I love this christmas one of Tinker bell and Marie. I can just imagine what my cat would do to any pixie she could catch.

Disney Trinket Boxes Sneak Peek

Velvet has sent me some more pics of upcoming Disney trinket boxes. I've always thought trinket boxes were kind of cool. Probably because I like figurines and these are figurines with (sometimes) secret compartments. But does anyone actually use them? What do you store in such a small space? I like the one with the hidden key.

New Princess with flower Figurine series

Walt Disney World has a new series of Princess figurines. The Alice figurine is what grabbed my attention because it's so rare to see new Alice merchandise. I guess with the new Tim Burton film coming Alice is getting a little more respect. I'm not sure what these are made of, they aren't plastic and aren't ceramic but are super light. They seem like a kind of mix between plaster and plastic to me. The Cinderella that I picked up and looked at is the one in the picture and looks fine but the bottom had chips mising out of the material which weren't noticeable without looking at the bottom. If you buy these, inspect carefully.

New Princess Snowglobe Ornament Series

Velvet brought my attention to this new and odd series of snowglobes with the comment "Did you see the new Princess Snowglobe Ornament series, they are... hmm... weird?" After seeing them in person today at the Christmas shop I have to agree. Each princess has a snowglobe emerging from her dress with a mascot fixed in place. They are true snowglobes with water and glitter inside. Each one is $13.95.
