We got our first real look at Urban 8 at The Florida Project. They showed off a couple 9″ as well as several 3″. We also found the Urban 8 pins that gave up 3 more designs.
Urban 8 3″ Price: $9.95 Release: November 2011
We found these figures at the Florida Project, and then found some pins to fill out more of the set. So far, only 8 of the 12. 3″
Raccoon
Artist: Casey Jones
This little fellow looks happy. Maybe he saw the hotdog.
Barricade
Artist: Thomas Scott
Directing traffic everywhere.
Hot Dog
Artist: Dan Howard
Looks yummy. Though I prefer just ketchup and relish.
-MC
Zombie Break Dancer
Artist: Monty Maldovan
We aren’t sure why the skin is blue, but this guy looks radical.
Beatnik
Artist: Thomas Scott
Cool cool cat.
Tree Frog
Artist: Robert Vann
Watch out, they are poisonous.
Beaded Necklace
Looks like this guy went to Mardi Gras, but this isn’t the Holiday series.
Aztech Warrior
This guy looks serious.
Urban Robot
This one is weird, sense there is a Robot series. Not only that, but the second Robot series is coming soon.
Also with this series are some LE. These look amazing!!
9″ Sock Monkey
$39.95

LE 800
This one is adorable. Buy several, each for each woman in your life.
9″ Boxer
Artist: Casey Jones
$39.95

LE 1000
This is a great looking piece. If any of the bandaids were mixed media, I’d almost think this was a one-of-a-kind.
Oh, and the boxing gloves, besides being awesome, are removable. When you can, check out his hands underneath.
9″ Saber Tooth Tiger
$39.95

This figure was named on a placard at The Florida Project, but it was not displayed. It’s sounds pretty cool though. I hope the teeth are 3D.
Love the Minnie Moo design, loathe the 25th Anniversary design. Horrible design IMO.
I love 25th. I will want multiple of these. When I worked at WDW I started 3 weeks before the “25th” in 1996. That was one of the best times in WDW history as far as quality and entertainment and expansion at the resort. I have several pieces of nostalgia from that time with the 25th Logo and am excited for something “New”
That’s neat… I’ve never heard of Minnie Moo.. but I like the design!
Never heard of Minnie Moo either, but looks good. No comment on the other one.
Both a epic wins! I remember MM! (and, honestly, those against the 25th figure.. Take into consideration that they could have made that blasted horrid pepto bismol cake into a figure…)
I would have actually preferred a castle cake design to this one. The pink castle cake was a disaster, but a memorable one. More memorable than the 25th logo.
