Nick LoCicero On July 12, a two figure 3″ combo set featuring Carl and Ellie from Up will release at Comic Con and Online. It was great to see them in person with the packaging at the WDW Trade Night. But it wasn’t just the phenomenal designs on the figures that caught my eye. The box, which … Read more

Another clown! Yes, but this one is a truly great idea for a vinyl that I would never even have ever imagined. We already knew of most of the 9″ Park 9s (take a look at explained page), and the back of a box on display at the WDW Trade Night has shown us the … Read more

The other day Nick (with the help from some listeners) speculated on what the Park 9 Combo Topper might be. It turns out it was the Brave Little Tailor. We got to see it at Friday’s WDW Trade Night. This figure looks great. What do you think? Check out all of Park 9 here.
I opened my email the other day, and there was a message from the Scuba Owl: What do you think the combo topper will be for Park 9? My vote is for this Mickey from the Mission Space gift shop: I almost think it would be too awesome for a topper. But then again, the … Read more

What is your favorite way to celebrate America and the 4th of July at Disney? For me, it’s a stroll down Main St. USA and it’s also my tradition to watch The American Adventure at EPCOT this time each year.
If you recognize the fingernails, you’ll know it’s Zoe found this vinylmation when trading at D-Street in Disneyland. It seems to confirm our suspicion that the silver variants are Cast Traders. The other figure looks like this. So it looks like at least one of the variants is now out and in trade boxes! For … Read more
