Welcome Vinylmation fans. This is the third edition of the DSO, Disney Store Online, report. This week there are, not surprisingly, quite a few additions and subtractions to the DSO, with additional Combo Packs, mystery boxes, and quite a few 9”s added.
Check out the Report after the jump
Introducing: Popping up this week is the Park 6 Combo Pack with Runaway Brain Mickey, designed by Monty Maldovan (Muppets 2). It’s priced at $24.95. Although the Topper Combos have made their stays for a while recently, there’s no knowing when these will disappear again. |
|
New to the DSO is the Urban 4 Sushi 9”, designed by Maria Clapsis (Cutesters Too). With a LE of 600 and seeming to be fairly popular, it’s unlikely this will be available for long. | |
Almost hidden on the DSO are two brand new Animation 9”s, both priced at $39.95. In order to find these Vinylmations you need to search for “animation” in the search bar. THEY ARE NOT INCLUDED UNDER VINYLMATION AS OF YET. (Beast can also be found but is sold out as noted later) The first of these 9”, designed by Thomas Scott (Lead Vinylmation Designer) and from Disney’s Fantasia, is the anticipated Hyacinth Hippo. Hyacinth is a LE of 1200. | |
The other Animation 9”, designed by Maria Clapsis and from the Make Mine Music segment “The Whale Who Wanted to Sing at the Met,” is the upward looking and singing Willie the Whale. Willie is a LE of 1000. | |
Newly introduced, as of around midnight on May 13th, Thomas Scott’s Sushi set is priced at $99.95 and is a LE of 2500. | |
Urban 6, also making its introduction recently, is up with individual mystery boxes at $11.95 each. Still no trays as of yet.

|
Relatively new to the DSO are the Sea Creature individual open boxes, all of which are available for $9.95. |
|
Muppets 2 stepped onto the online shelves with both individual mystery boxes, at $11.95, and the usual 24 tray, for $286.80. | |
The first of the Urban 6 9”s, the Gumball Machine 3” combo designed by Maria Clapsis and Caley Hicks, is a LE of 1000 is available on the DSO for $74.95. | |
Comebacks: The less popular Clear mystery boxes are now back online and at a discounted price of $5.99, $3.96 off their original price. Perhaps the sale will spike some newfound interest. An alternative option to simply collecting the clear series would be treat them as another version of Create-Your-Owns. Now you can make your own Obi Wan Kenobi Ghost Variant instead of paying $300+ for him on eBay. ;-) |
|
The Park 3 mystery boxes are up online again and at the discounted price of $5.99. | |

The Ticket Book LE of 1955 (symbolizing the year Disneyland opened) is a 6 piece Vinylmation plus one pin set, priced at $99.95, and is surprisingly back up online! | |
