New Designs Released!!

I am so very jealous of those lucky Disneyland annual passholders!! Two exclusive vinyls celebrate the opening of two new attractions: The Little Mermaid- Ariel's Undersea Adventure and Goofy's Sky School!






And for Car Masters Weekend a special two-figure set with Lightning McQueen and Mater:





Cutesters Like You will be released soon. You'd think I'd like more of these because I do enjoy anime very much but the only one I really want is the one in the Japanese school girl outfit just so I can obtain many of these and change the heads to look like the Sailor Scouts ;)






The following are various upcoming designs:
I LOVE the penguin, while the others I am not quite so fond of. I'm guessing the bright swirly one will appeal to those who are still living in the '80s and wishing for a unicorn...







The following are 9" designs for Urban 6
The Viking creeps me out (I much prefer the 3" that comes with the ear hat), the stars remind me of the 80's and pinball machines. I believe someone had some fun with sharpies on the white one and I actually LOVE the old style radio.






And of course the Kidada 9"! It is so cute though, I'm not sure if its some sort of candy or Minnie is looking at her reflection in a puddle... Either way, I LOVE THE JEWELRY!! Why hasn't anyone thought of this before??????

Upcoming 9” Viking, Gum Ball Machine, Midway Mania, Earful Tower. Plus Urban 6 Chaser!

Recently, the Disney Vinylmation Blog has released the nine inch designs that inspired the newest Ear Hats. I personally prefer the designs of the three inch figures with the hats more than the nine inch designs that inspired them. For instance, I definitely like "after" 3" vinyl included with the gum ball machine hat more than the "before" 3" vinyl here. Also, I think the 3" viking that comes with the hat is much cuter than this three inch one, though some people may not want "cute" mixed with their feared warriors and ransackers like me. Don't get me wrong, I love vikings and Norse mythology but, for some reason this one just isn't doin' it for me.




Also, the designs for Toy Story Midway Mania and The Earful Tower have been released! Perfect for any Hollywood Studios lover!! I love the Earful Tower and really hope that they have a great and colorful design on the back of Toy Story Mania to not only compliment the calm colors on the front but to also better represent the appearance and experience of the ride. 




Also announced was the release dates for the remaining nine inch Animation vinyls.  Willie the Whale and Hycacinth Hippo are scheduled for late spring (although I have heard some people already have these) and Bolt and Merlin are scheduled for the fall. 



And now.... The moment you have all been waiting for: The Urban 6 Chaser!
I think someone over at Disney Design Group really really really loves Runaway Brain, especially considering that they are releasing a nine inch/ Jr. combo for the Villains series. I don't know if I truly get the appeal...

Park 6, Urban 6, Tron, New Ear Hats Bubble Gum Machine and Viking!!!

Recently, Disney released the Park 6, Urban 6, Tron, and new Ear Hat designs!! Unfortunately, until the release of the series, the chaser will not be revealed. But here is a collection of all of the photos in one place for your ease of viewing! 

Park 6

Perfect for those of you who were able to get the limited edition nine inch Disney Cruise Vinyls... Gotta be safe!!
Oh, I do love this ride!! Remember that game Mouse Trap? Well, I never really got to play it since I never owned it and the one friend I had who had it didn't like setting it up. But this ride is a non scary version of what I think it would be like to be a mouse in Mouse Trap... only without the trapping part.
LOVE! I really like this design!
Yay Adventure Land!
Absolute Must HAVE! The signs on Disney Property are AWESOME!
Ahh the memories... No, I never messed with anything that was labeled "Wet Paint"  but, I have always liked the cute Wet Paint Signs.
I love Epcot...but not my favorite...





Urban 6


I believe you all already know my opinion on this...
Kinda cute, not a must have, but not a bad one to get from the blind trading boxes....
Cute, but the pin is cuter. If it were based on Beaches 'N' Cream at  Beach Club I would definitely need it!
Ummm, sorry, I'm not a fan of crying babies.

The picture of the following is not available on the Disney Blog yet so a picture of the pin will have to stand in for the figure
I get what they were going for but it just seems creepy... probably good for Halloween decorations...darn now I want the Green Thumb because its like a zombie thumb!!
I like the clear arm/wings but I think they could have made it cuter, especially since it's supposed to be a queen bee.
I get the concept but it didn't work too well on the 3D figure. The pin is kinda cute though!
Emoticons and other internet spawned abbreviations are over done, and that is coming from someone who is grew up with computers and these abbreviations... So if I wasn't so sick of seeing this plastered all over everything trying to make it look "hip" and young (which by the way, we don't use "hip" when describing cool stuff) I would like it! I mean it is orange, my least favorite color, but well done. I actually like how she put the winking emoticon as the face on this figure. Ok, rant over, we can move onto the next few topics.


Tron
Haven't seen the movie yet (yes I know, I know, I want to. Just haven't had the time yet) so I really can't comment too much  on the accuracy of these or the items from the movie chosen. But enjoy!!

Without seeing the movie, this is my favorite so far from this series!


New Ear Hats!!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE! I really hope that the ears are clear little compartments with little fake gum balls rolling around in them. Plus, I really like the vinylmation figure that goes with it! Super cute idea with the guest wearing an ear hat and the classic exploded bubble gum bubble. 

Kinda cute. I like the hat and the vinylmation viking is kinda cute. It doesn't appeal to me the way the bubble gum one does though.
