Disney Store's 25th Anniversary

March 28th was not just the Disney Store's 25th Anniversary - it was also my 4th wedding anniversary!
Lord Hill and I celebrated like any normal Disney loving couple would have - by doing the Disney Store Hop!

We got to our local store at about 9:30AM expecting a crowd, especially since it's one of the largest malls in America. We were shocked when there were only 10 or of us there until around 9:55 when the crowd reached it's max of maybe 30 people. This was good news for us since only the first 250 people were going to get the limited edition Mickey ears. Hubby and I both got a set!

It was my first time getting to see the opening ceremony and it was so cute! We had been chatting with the little girl who was chosen since we got there and her guardian was nice enough to let me record the ceremony so I could show all of you! (I'm sorry the video is sideways, I did not record it that way so I'm not sure how or why that happened!)



Afterwards hubby and I did some shopping and picked up the 25th Anniversary Vinylmation. I'll take a good photo of the one we picked later on, but for now you can enjoy these stock photos from the Disney website.

We also played some fun trivia games and won some cute prizes!

This was not the end of our Disney themed anniversary. When we got home Lord Hill gave me my gift and boy did he do good! Yup! That is a Disney Dooney and Bourke bag along with a Dooney and Bourke credit card holder (which I have decided is my new business card holder)
He also gave me an amazing Precious Moment that is so perfectly "us" that it literally made me all teary when I opened it.

We actually wound up going to another local Disney Store later in the day after going out for an amazing breakfast/lunch but before heading to the movies to see The Hunger Games.

Did any of you attend the Anniversary festivities today? Was it worth the time and energy? Did any of you try to get there for the ears but then wound up being too late to get them? I'd love to hear about your experiences!

The Giants Won The Super Bowl!!! Celebrating with a Vinylmation!

At $18.95 a pop it was a bit more expensive than I really think it's worth but after literally being on my knees in front of the tv for the last 57 seconds of the game, I couldn't NOT buy this.

New Vinylmation Mold - Popcorns

I just read an article over at VinylmationKingdom.com about a new mold being released for a new line of Disney Vinylmations. The Vinylmation Popcorns...

Not sure how I feel about this, since I still miss the original mold of the original vinylmations.

Check out the article HERE and then come back and tell me what you think!

Project Z Partially Revealed

I've been waiting for more news on this forever. I just happened to check out VinylmationKingdom.com today and was super excited to see this post!

http://vinylmationkingdom.com/?p=5249

It appears to be the yeti in front of Expedition Everest. I'm intrigued! Does this mean the yeti will be the new form or perhaps they will be making all new forms for different attractions. Maybe there is a vinyl Figment on an actual Figment mold in the future!?!

I can't wait to find out more!

Disney Mail Call - Star Wars Weekends and Adventures in eBay

If you follow me on twitter, (and you should, see my next post for details why) then you already know that I was VERY excited to receive a package. I even posted a teaser picture of the package. I love mail in general, but Disney related mail is even better.

Dinah and Alice were excited as well, and eager to help me open the box.

My darling husband was also eager to open the box but waited patiently while I took some photos to share with you.

I will be sure to show you photos of them once I put them in their new home... but for now, here is a photo from Disney of the figures.

I have wanted to collect these since the series was first released. However, they sold out rather quickly and were not released again until Star Wars Weekends.
Now, I'm sure you're saying "But Lady Hill, you weren't at Star Wars weekends. However did you score a whole case??"
That is where the eBay adventure comes into play.

I have found an awesome seller. She has fair prices on her buy it now items, fair shipping, and also holds auctions. All of this was just dandy and I was good to go based on that alone, when I saw that she said she makes frequent trips to Disney World and can try to take requests I was sold.

She has awesome communication, always quickly responds to messages and/or emails and even stayed in touch while she was away and visiting family. I instantly added her to my favorite sellers list and I think you should too.

Click HERE to visit debranator228 on eBay and tell her Lady Hill sent you!
(I am not affiliated with debranator228 I simply find that she provides a good service and I told her that I would spread the word.)

Do you collect Vinylmations? Which series is your favorite?

Babes in Disneyland Disney Blog Hop

Hello there and welcome to my own personal Wonderland. If you're stopping by from the blog hop you know that this week is all about Disney decor. I have big plans for my imaginary house and what a wonderful Alice in Wonderland themed garden I'll have... I picture the outside to look like the gingerbread architecture of the Old Key West resort with hidden Mickey's everywhere... ah, a dream is a wish your heart makes....
Anywho, back here in my Wonderland I have managed to cram a LOT of Disney into a little space.
This is just a taste of what my tower holds...to keep this a tolerable length I will limit this post to just my "office" where I do all of my fabulous blogging from.

Above my desk...

Our pin collection minus the 200 or so we traded for on our last trip to the World in March.

My Figment shelf (yes, he gets his own shelf, he shares it with Alice but it's pretty much his.) 9" Vinylmations on the next shelf down. Hubby has a Ghostbuster shelf but that isn't Disney so feel free to ignore it.

Well, that's my office aka "Disney room". Stay tuned for more photos of my Disney decor. 

Be sure to join the hop to share photos of your Disney decor too!

Disney Store Outlet Deals!

Now that blogger is finally back up and running I am so excited to share my Disney Store Outlet score with you!

There is actually another red create your own vinylmation hiding on top of the Screamer 9" that got cut out of the photo.

Now, I know what you are thinking...
"Lady Hill, why did you buy so many red 3" vinylmations??"

This is why...They were only $2.99 each!  This is great for trading at the parks. I know that some people don't like solid color or clear vinylmations and get upset that people use them to trade, but the great thing about Disney is, if you don't like your trade, you get to try again or pick from the clear box. So, in September, be prepared b/c there will be a few of these floating around in the trade boxes. We bought all of the ones our location had, but we were told that other locations had a similar stock so you may be able to luck out!

The screamer was only $19.99!! Half Price! SCORE! My hubby really wanted it when it first came out but we couldn't justify the cost. At $20, we went for it.

I also got myself  fabulous new shirt...

Only $7.00!

Now, I haven't even gotten to the best part... we had a 10% off coupon! So it was an even sweeter deal. I am very excited about this trip to the Disney Store Outlet. It doesn't compare to the 2 in orlando that sell Disney Park merchandise... but it was still a great day.

I picked something else up at the Lenox outlet that I will be sharing in a separate post. Stay tuned for more Disney goodness!!

What is the best deal you have scored on Disney merchandise??

Times Square Disney Store Exclusives

A few weekends ago my husband and I took a trip into the city to visit my mom at Memorial Sloan Kettering hospital. Afterwards we made our way over to Times Square to check out the new Disney Store.

Please disregard my lack of makeup and bad hair day. I didn't dress up to visit the hospital.

First let me say, that I was a little dissappointed with the outside of the store. We literally walked by it twice while trying to find it because it just didn't stand out like the Toys R Us or the Hershey store did. The store isn't as big as I thought it would be, but I have a large Disney Store at my local mall so that is probably why.


When you first walk in you are greeted by Time Square exlusive merchandise. It was very cute, but being a New Yorker, most of it is stuff I wouldn't bother owning. As much as I love NY I don't usually broadcast it on my clothing. If you are a tourist however, it is some of the CUTEST New York merchandise I have ever seen.

This is a cute swing/ferris wheel type thing they have set up on the first floor. It's very cute. There are Disney characters and kids in Disney clothes riding it. It moved a little too quick for my cell phone to get a good picture but here is Minnie having a spin.

These were probably one of my favorite things in the store...

Mickey Ears with the Statue of Liberty crown. These are  MUST HAVE for any tourist in my opinion. I have made a vow to never wear a Statue of Liberty Crown around NYC otherwise these would have been mine. I did make an exception to take a quick picture so I could show the details though. Arent they adorable?!

Now... on to my favorite thing from the store. Which, yes I did purchase. A Times Square Exclusive Vinylmation.

        

I LOVE this Vinylmation. The detail is fabulous and the tin is awesome. It was worth the trip to the store for that alone. But wait... I'm not done yet...
The Times Square store also has.... PINS!!!

I only bought one. There were some cute pins, but I just didn't see spending that much money on NYC souveniers. There was a Minnie Mouse pin that was part of a set that I desperately wanted, but it wasn't sold seperately. So, to go with the theme of the day I purchased this one...at $12.50 it was a little ridiculous and I feel that if it were in WDW the same pin might have been a $9.50 one. Oh well, it was cute, and it was a pin! I needed it.

Have you been to the Times Square Disney Store? If so, I'd love to hear about your experience!
